Thank you for all the sweet comments yesterday. My letters to Afton are always such hard posts to write and share, but the love and support I have received from you all has been so healing as I make ...
My Little Sweet Afton, It’s been 6 months since you were here with us. We just celebrated Memorial Day, a day that holds so much more meaning to me now that you have passed. It’s weird ho...
Just in case you missed the season premiere of So You Think You Can Dance last night, I’m here today with the highlights: my SIL Bree Hafen and our cute little cousins Luke and Stella (I’...
I’ve been on a thrifting kick lately. I recently found this little glass dome with a butterfly inside. When I first bought it I loved it for the glass dome, then once I got it home, I loved it ...
I’m a big fan of curb appeal. It’s crazy how just the shrubs and lines around your home can make such a visual difference. If you are in Utah and in need to spruce up your own curb appeal...
There was a time (way back when) when I used to always share a quick tip on a Tuesday – “Quick Tip Tuesday” as I use to call it. I kind of got away from my little schedule, but I...
—Giveaway Now Closed— I have a fun giveaway today with Cowabunga Bay. Cowabunga Bay is a New water park here in Utah. It is located in Draper (just right off the freeway). Every time we d...
I LOVE this recipe for Hot German Potato Salad. I’m not sure if it’s the vinegar or the bacon, but both make this one of my favorite things to eat whether hot or cold straight out of the ...
I hope you all had a nice Mother’s Day. This year was such a bittersweet Mother’s Day for me. The first Mother’s Day after our little Afton had passed. The first Mother’s Day ...
It’s no secret I have a thing for washi tape. I’m crazy about it. From making a washi tape cheat sheet, to using it for a fun kid craft for Easter, to my favorite way…my Project Lif...
My sweet boy learned how to ride a bike last week. He’s even got the farmer tan to prove it. He will be 4 years old in June. I’m not sure if we should be thrilled or scared that he has le...
Over the weekend we celebrated our 13th wedding anniversary. This past year has probably been the most trying year we have had together with the loss of our little Afton. Sometimes I think if we can ...
Earlier this year, my sweet friend April of the blog Funky Vintage Lovely sent over the sweetest gift after we lost our little Afton. It’s one of Lisa Leonard‘s home decor items, it’...
Here’s a fun (free) printable to help celebrate Mother’s Day and all the great moms in your life (including yourself). Here’s what the printable PDF looks like when you print it out...
I’m such a sucker for fried ice cream. It’s so good! I always have to order it at my favorite ‘dive-y’ Mexican spot. It’s so simple and inexpensive to make that I had to...
Earlier this month we had a date night in downtown Salt Lake at the new City Creek Center. I snapped a few pictures of things I loved. Inspiration is all around us, and having a camera on your phone ...
All this week at BabyCenter, we are talking about infertility and loss. There have been so many great articles on the topic this week. I’m sharing a post today on 5 kind things you can do for a...
My sweet little Afton, We went up to your grave last night and it was as pretty as always. I could not have picked a more beautiful place to visit and remember you. When I’m up there it’s...
I’m still on a “SNAP high”. This last weekend was the Snap Conference at Thanksgiving Point. It was so much fun to welcome 325 creative/DIY/craft/sewing/part y bloggers to the confer...
Have you ever made an eye spy bottle? I recently made one, and I’m so glad I did. It’s crazy if you look around how many “tiny” things you can find around your home. If you pe...
I’m busy with Snap this week starting today (Yippee!), but I wanted to pop in a share a fun post I did on the BabyCenter Blog. Cinco de Mayo is coming up (it’s our wedding anniversary), a...
The other night we had chile verde burritos and I realized I hadn’t shared the recipe here yet. Ooh it’s a good one! It’s the best way to use up leftover pork. We had leftover pork ...
Did you know that you can make a custom letterpress plate with Lifestyle Crafts? This is something I have wanted to do for some time now, so I was so excited when we finally did it. I love the look a...
Hi there! We are back to life after a fun “stay-cation” Spring Break. This week is a week I’ve been looking forward to for a long time. There’s a blog conference for creative ...
I hope you all had a nice Easter weekend. We sure did. Here’s my sweet kids yesterday on Easter Sunday. It’s our Spring Break here this week, so I won’t be around here much, but you...
Easter is different for me this year. The real meaning of Easter means so much more to me since the passing of our little Afton. To know that we can see her again gives light to the end of a tunnel. ...
—Giveaway Now Closed— In October of last year I attended a fun blogger event hosted by Scentsy. Since then I continue to be impressed by Scentsy and the people who make it the great compa...
I’m still pluggin’ along with our Project Life album. I’ve got a system down for it with how I print all the pictures each week which really helps so much. Now if I could just get o...
