March Booklist

Another month, another booklist! I'm fighting the urge to not just photograph the pretty books from this month to feature in the header image (like a weirdo.) These booklist photos would look much better if they were color coordinated or themed but I read a whole lot of random each month and that's just the way it is! I read eight more books this month so were at 20 books out of the 23 I'm trying to read this year - I'm onto a great start! Clearly, I should have probably set a higher goal, but ... continue reading...

Easter, Mama Buys

Three Easter Baskets

One, Two, Three little Easer Baskets all in a row! I'm grateful (in that silly matching mama way) that Pottery Barn still had these adorable felt Bunny Easter Baskets I purchased for the girls two years ago so that I could have all three colors.

And when I say zero time, really I mean zero patience. I ... continue reading...

All The Love You Can Give

The other night I put on the Sound of Music just before Bruce got off work (that would be 5:30 pm for those who like the details in a narrative). The girls and I were singing My Favorite Things while pretending to be on a carousel (as one does) so I went to play the song on our speakers because Julie Andrews sings it better than I do! Once the remote was in my hands and I was getting the music set up on our tv, I pivoted and selected the movie itself just for fun. I knew there was no way ... continue reading...
