This month, as many of you know, I am sorting, purging and prettying my bedroom closet. My process is super slow. So slow in fact, that while side-tracking my cleaning efforts with a much over due ‘pouring over photos by the millions’ (on my closet floor), my heels made my butt go numb from sitting [...]

Awww….more twinkle lights and homemade goodness. Here are some photos from our evening. My new star lights. They twinkle. They said twinkle on the box. Before I paid for them wish I would have seen the word, twinkle. Sorta pretty, the little eye spasms they are. Ry helped me bake some White Chocolate Peppermint Scones. [...]

Welcome 2009! We had a merry-filled evening with good cheer, french bread with olive oil and cracked pepper, and loved ones (Neat Pete’s brother Tim and our sis-in-law, Lisa). Ry got to stay up late, 9:30 p.m., to celebrate. He had no idea what the big deal was about New Years, he just wanted the [...]

I am not tempted to make a check-mark on my list called, “Take down Christmas”.  My bathroom’s red and green fingertip towels are in no danger of being sequestered to the attic any time soon. I love the twinkle lights, in and on my home, that brighten the dark, wintry nights that lie ahead. The [...]

I feel like I am sitting down with an old friend as I open my blog tonight.  My new ballerina-style fuzzy slippers are warming my toes. I am finally drinking water after drinking exclusively spiced cider, marshmallow-cocoa or specialty coffee for last who-knows how many days. Dry furnace air and hauling kids around makes me [...]

Here are my little dumplings with their Daddy on Thanksgiving morning. Thank You God for such a blessing. We had a leisurely breakfast and played around on our living room “furniture”. Yes, cushions and blankets kept us pleasantly cozy and entertained! {note: in the upper right hand of the photo the kitchen cabinet doors are [...]

Trick-or-Treating Get-Ups The photos below were just taken this afternoon. I left my camera behind the evening of Halloween. Sometimes I just need to be in the moment and not behind the lens. Molly really “got” it when we took her out for trick-or-treating. She insisted that she go up to every door instead of [...]
