Do you guys ever play the "if we won the lottery" game? I swear my husband and I have this chat every time we take a road trip... I'm sorry I've been absent from Blogland recently. It's summer with four kids, folks! My days are spent figuring out how to keep them entertained. Last week we went to northern Michigan. We've…read more

 Happy Summer, all! I hope you had a fun Independence Day weekend! Nothing beats time with friends and family! Check out this shot I got on my phone! An outdoor movie for the kiddos with fireworks...   Just screams summer to me! So does time with cousins in my parents' pool...  And sidewalk chalk...  And 4th of July parades watching my almost-13-year-old with her pom…read more

 Hi there! I received several questions recently under one of my Instagram photos that I thought were smart and valid to ask, and I thought I'd take the time to answer them in a blog post.

Anyway, I know the art is different than what I originally planned- I'll talk about that in a…read more

 I'm going to be an aunt again! I have six nephews and six nieces and the feeling of a new one coming NEVER gets old! So excited to have a newborn to hold again! I always say I could have ten babies! Ten kids- not so much, but gimme all the BABIES! So, when helping to plan my sister's shower, I…read more

I have a slight obsession with thrifting books lately. Vintage books have actually become quite a popular design "go-to" these days. You can style them anywhere! They aren't just for bookshelves. Think mantels, coffee tables, and even under lamps to give them height. I did just that in my dining room makeover... These days, I've been on a crazy hunt for…read more
