Pumpkin is one of the most hilarious cats I’ve ever been around! She DEMANDED to come on the porch today, and I finally let her in the house [she lives next door to us]. I don’t like letting her insi...
It’s been so long since I’ve photographed my breakfast – oatmeal – on the porch. I feel like I’m reading an old post of mine! To be honest, I woke up craving cold cereal and milk – just like the beac...

Other than a long beach walk this morning, we haven’t actually be out playing yet – we had to do a massive grocery store trip first! (My parents did a mini one yesterday). 7 foodies with strong opini...
The view from our bed I was up from 5-6am this morning with a squirming baby who would not settle down! I often wonder if he squirms all night and I just happened to wake up for another reason and it...
