Happy New Years Eve! You may have noticed I have, unintentionally, taken the week off from blogging. The week before christmas was a rush! And Christmas with the whole family and little ones this year was so special but so exhausting. Oh and then there was that whole stomach flu thing… Long story short, I took a holiday break but [...read more]
Well that week went by fast, didn’t it? It just flew by for me. I can’t believe that a week ago I was snuggled in my parents house back in Minnesota feasting on Thanksgiving leftovers and feeling the family love.

My enthusiasm for costumes has grown rather than diminished over the years, but I have found that Halloween costumes for us grown up girls can get too [...read more]
Today is my dear friend’s 21st birthday! Oh wow. I have to admit I am a tad heartbroken that I can’t be back in my hometown to celebrate such a rite of passage. Although, knowing us it wouldn’t be a raucous ”21 run”, more like a champagne sipping, party dress wearing, girls night in, ending in deep talks about life and love. [...read more]
This past sunday was my niece’s first birthday! It was so wonderful. It was all things girly and ruffly and sweet. My beautiful sister and I had many discussions about what we wanted the theme and decor to be.
