Dare I Say…

Well, we've officially had our first snowfall of the season, including Lucas's first snow day from school last Friday. I can't even remember the last time it snowed this early (besides the occasional flurries) in the season?! You guys probably know by now that winter really is not my ...

An Amazing New Fragrance to Try + Weekend Things!

We had a pretty split mix of both awesome and crappy weather this weekend, so that kept most of our Saturday activities indoors.

Mine has been busy, busy, BUSY; I’ve been running on super speed all morning in preparations for our vacation, and actually have to head back out to work in about a half hour for a client, so forgive me if I’m sounding sort of spazzy. ...

A Huge Urge To Bake

Howdy, friends! Thanks so much for all of your insights from this morning’s post.
