Our sweet Aiden is growing up. This past Sunday when we took him to the church nursery not only did he NOT CRY(when we left)…when we picked him up, the teacher commented on his wonderful manners. It seems so small yet it was so big.  I have had anxiety over leaving him and him being […]

**pic is a teeny aiden :)** Chris and I were stuck in traffic this week and drove past a cemetery where someone was being buried.   Literally just right there near the side of the road they were lowering a person’s casket down.   I said to Chris, “how do people do it?”…I mean if that […]

I have seen this on a few people’s blog and thought it might be fun! Obsessing over: hot chocolate, boots, homemade pancakes, inspiration boards and Christmas lights. Working on: a little artsy schedules, designs for new cards, a REALLY fun top secret project that is in the works, styled photo shoots with my dearest friend […]
