Girls Weekend!
The women in my family (my mom, sister, and sister-in-laws) all go away together for a weekend in the fall. In the past we’ve gone to the Country Living Fair and Philly. This year we decided to go to Peddler’s Village which is in historic Buck’s County about an hour and a half away. {me, my […]

The Weekend in Pictures
On Sunday after church we decided last minute (as most of our decisions are) to spend the afternoon at Lake Tobias, which is a pretty cool wild-life park for kids. And the adults had fun too. Happy Monday!
Family Room Fluffing
I was in the mood to do some fluffing in the family room this week. I sewed some simple striped pillows for the couch. Like I said before, I’m a little obsessed with stripes, so that would be why I made them! I looked for striped fabric but couldn’t find exactly what I wanted. So […]
What I Wore {Transitioning from Summer to Fall}
I haven’t been posting “What I Wore” posts lately, mostly because I haven’t had the time and because I’m sort of tired of my summer stuff. So, this is an outfit I wore the other day and I thought I’d share it. This is an easy way to wear a summer dress into the fall. […]
The latest
Here are some of the latest signs I’ve been working on… “Follow Your Bliss” – this one is for sale in my Etsy Shop. I used a very cool piece of salvaged barn wood to make it and love how it turned out. This one will go in the bedroom of a sweet little blonde-haired girl […]
A Little About Me {And A Little About You}
Blogging is a funny thing. You get an “inside” into my life, my family, my home, my inspirations. But it’s mostly just a one-way street. Sometimes it’s just plain strange when I meet a stranger and they know a lot about me because they read my blog. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve met a lot of […]
Hurricanes, New Beginnings, and Randomness
I’ve been a bit absent from the blog lately mostly because I’m constantly trying to catch up…on everything. Work, kids, projects. Summer is winding down and I want to enjoy every minute! Hurricane Irene swept through last weekend and took one of our big trees down in the backyard. Thankfully it was a tree that hubs […]
Seaside Inspired Mantle
For some reason (as if I don’t have enough to do) I’ve been itching to change my fireplace mantle around, so I’ve been working on a new look for the past few days and thought I’d share what it looks like now. Just for fun, I took a look at some old photos and this […]
Away for the Day
On Saturday we headed to a little spot called Tangier Island in Virginia, a tiny, peaceful little spot in the middle of the Chesapeake Bay. We went with our pilot peeps – our friends Mark & Mary. It is advantageous to have a friend who is a pilot! And fun, too, let me tell you. He’s […]
Shop Additions
I just added a couple more wood sign into my Etsy Shop today. Some of you had asked what I was going to do with the barn door I had pictured earlier. I decided to make a sign out of it with a scripture verse. I stained it a gorgeous dark walnut color then hand painted […]
