It’s my birthday, today! Gonna party all night ’til nine (cuz I’m old with four kids), cuz it’s ma birthday.;) Feeling blessed and grateful, waking up to so many sweet birthday wishes from family and friends, this morning! Seriously, my heart is about to pop, it feels so full. This “Sunday Best” is from last Sunday before church,
Li’l Pom & ‘Stance
Oh my. I know I’m super behind on life when I’m finally posting my two-Sundays-ago looks (we were home sick this past Sunday)…. And the holidays have not even started, yet! Oh well, doing my best and chuggin’ along, here. So, my favorite part about my look is the pom-pom shoes, of course. When I was standing in
All American
As we were settling into our row last Sunday, my youngest swished my skirt, gave me a squinty-eyed once over, and then said, “You look like that American Girl doll.” Still not clear if he thought that was a good or bad thing? I never know with him. So, here I am in all my
Sweater Weather with Lilla P
Happy Saturday! It’s a cold, windy, rainy day here – perfect for staying in our pjs all day, and cozying up by the fire (which we are totally doing). My absolute favorite kinda weekend!! Hope you’re enjoying your kind of a perfect one, too.:) I’ve partnered with Lilla P once again for this post! I
Lilla P LBD
Goooood Friday morning!! I’m partnering with Lilla P for this post, and am so happy to dish on this perfect Little Black Dress of theirs. The fabric is a thick (but not too thick), dreamy ponte, and the cut, seaming, and fit is absolute perfection. It arrived without a wrinkle on it, and although my
October, Love
October 1st. I can’t believe it. It’s been almost a year since we lost our beloved Grandpa. I think it’s because our lives were so full of him this time last year, that these past few weeks have felt a little more achey. The children talk about him often, though no longer followed with heartbreaking sobs. I’ve wondered
Happy Faces, Heavy Hearts
There are some happy faces in this post, but our family has carried very heavy hearts this past week. Kaylee Sawyer, my husband’s uncle’s beautiful, 23-year-old granddaughter, went missing early Sunday morning (the day we shot this). Tuesday, her body was found; yesterday, she was officially identified, and the man that killed her has been arrested, following
A (Two)Piece of My Mind
I am talking Two Pieces, this morning, which is kind of a big deal for me. Ever since having my last kiddo, wearing bikinis has always been something I wasn’t quiiite comfortable doing, because of stretch marks. Mine weren’t bad – very small/faint – but I still felt like, hmmm those are best under a
Heli Good
I’m fiiiinally getting around to posting photos from our heli tour of the Big Island, today! Two disclaimers, sort of. 1) I brought the wrong lens on our ride, so the shots aren’t amazing, but I hope it gives you a semi-idea as to the magnitude of the stunning beauty of Hawaii? 2) What I
Memorial (Sun)Day Traditions
I can’t believe I actually did it! I’m getting my second post up, like I had planned! So, if you follow me on Instagram, you already know what I wore to church yesterday, but I wanted to share a little more with you about what we did after church… When my husband was a little boy,
