Don’t let these photos fool you. It’s been a lot of potty training around here. Instead of posting pictures from our living room, I thought I’d share some of the other things we’ve been up to. You know, just in case you’re not worried about whether or not Ellie can “make pee or poop” in…
I couldn’t be more excited to have Megan on the blog today. Her ability to capture beautiful, interesting images is one I’d like to steal. So, I asked her the question that’s on my mind (and probably on yours) “How can I take better photos?” Here’s what she had to say. These days the ability to…
Here’s hoping your 4th feels like this with lots of popsicle eating, marshmallow toasting and sparkler waving. In celebration of the holiday, I’ll be taking a break from the blog for a few days, but will be back in business on Monday. Have a great weekend!

The official start of summer is in a few days, but let’s face it. Summer has been here for a few weeks already, so it’s time to get my annual wishlist in order. Don’t you think? Here’s what I’m looking forward to this season: 1. Tomatoes. Lots of home-grown juicy tomatoes, stacked with mozzarella or…
This year, we threw a small party for Ellie with a few friends and family. It was a lot of fun. There were bubbles. We went for a gardening party theme, since Ellie loves few things more than digging around outside. I used this chevron runner from Paper Source that is a longtime favorite. The…
This has nothing to do with our new house, but I had to show you Ellie’s “mad face.” It’s pretty good, right? Where to start? Our new house is coming together, but I have a running list of updates that need to be made streaming through my brain at all times. It goes something like…
Don’t let this serene photo fool you. Things have been nuts around here. Moving and selling your house is not for the faint of heart, but we’re starting to get settled. So, soon, it will be like this. Maybe. The house next to our is empty right now. A local developer will be flipping it…
