October is my birthday month, and this year the family came down for a day of pumkins, football, and food. Here are a few photos from our day. LUKE! My ever- goofy daddy! I don’t know why, but I LOVE this photo. It slays me. We love Spooner Farms! These wild ones wanted to do […]

Newborn photoshoot featuring Holden Brave!
We have waited the arrival of this sweet boy for months on end. His mama is my dear cousin, Tawny (travel writer, blogger, shopping partner) and she and her husband, Christopher welcomed this little nugget into the world six weeks ago. Since “four-week-old photoshoot” doesn’t have the same ring to it as “newborn” we are […]
Fourth Of July 2016
What a successful 4th of July! We hosted a small get together at our place. Nice and mellow. We grilled hot dogs, ate apple pie, and drank home-made beer. Pretty dang American. Pretty sure I was told that if I ever posted these really cute pictures of my cousin eating that […]
Happy Birthday Poppi!

Bravely Facing Corned Beef (and all the fixins)
When it comes to cooking, I feel fairly confident. Whether it’s a steak and potatoes kind of a night, or a spicy curry dish, I know my way around a kitchen. However, I have a confession: I may have a slight phobia of large cuts of meat. So here I am (after a phone call […]
Baby Shower Bliss
My beautiful, talented, sweet cousin Tawny is having a baby boy. Here is a glimpse into her special day!
Rosie Turns One!
This little nugget turned one! Being her nanny has been such an honor and often the highlight of my week. Her parents threw her the sweetest Seahawks themed party. This girl is so loved! Miss Katie in the kitchen whipping up fresh cream. Here’s the birthday girl! Had to have the game on. SheeLa and […]
