I have always realized that Ainsley looks a lot like me when I was little, but it is starting to become MUCH more apparent! It is almost freakish how much she looks like me at that age. Today, I put her in one of my old dresses and I was taking pictures because she looked […]
I have no shame anymore. None. I am officially a DIY cheater and I don’t care (well, maybe just a tad….) Remember that whole LARGE project that I took on last summer (find out about it HERE) ? You know, the one where I ripped out all the old carpet on the staircase and in […]
Oh my! What a LONG week it has been and I don’t even know where to start or how to even explain. I am finally snuggled up in my own bed after spending a week at The Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania (one of the best hospitals in the country!). Words can’t even begin […]
I have been very busy with my Etsy Shop orders. Want to see?? Okay? Sure!
So, in my haze this week, I completely forgot that Ethan’s Valentine’s Day classroom party is tomorrow! Whoops! With no ability to run out and buy anything, I had to use what I already had. Kind of makes it more fun, don’t you think? I did a quick internet search for some cute Valentines printables […]
Final week of Project Run and Play! This week’s challenge was Special Occasion wear, which was a little tricky for me because we don’t really have any special occasions coming up, ha! However, I figured I would take advantage of my time and make Ainsley her Easter dress…. really early, but I will be so […]

EDITED: I am entering this jacket/boot set into the Project Run and Play Auditions~! (Squeal!)

Super excited about this week’s edition of Project Run and Play ! The topic is “Sewing Through the Decades” and I chose the late 1940’s/early 1950’s and I immediately knew what type of dress I would make: I love the polka dots and the “poofiness” of the skirt. I added a ric rac detail to the […]

Finally! I have finally finished {well, almost finished} my Basement Craft/Sewing Room! Remember when I had a really cute sewing room upstairs in the 4th bedroom? {click to see pictures} Unfortunately, that room never ever worked out because I work late at night and it was directly near the kids’ rooms…. and well, you know […]
Most people make personal resolutions for themselves when the new year begins and we like to make a list of Home Resolutions. Strange, but true. Garrett and I sit down and discuss what we would like to accomplish with the house during the upcoming year (have I ever mentioned how wonderful of a husband he […]
The LONG list of projects we have for this house includes switching out all of the dated, awful light fixtures that lurk around every corner. Unfortunately, this could be a very expensive upgrade if we went out and simply purchased brand new lights for every room! We have definitely been creative so far, in order […]
