Mama’s Day
I love that I have a family that wants to celebrate my birthday each year. It’s been a challenge for me. I don’t feel the need to make a fuss about my birthday. In fact, I don’t really like to. At all. But I LOVE to celebrate each one of them. So despite my requests […]
Hurricane Irma and a birthday
Wow! We are nothing short of blessed by the outcome of Hurricane Irma. What could have been a disaster and “catastrophic” as the news suggested numerous times, turned out to be flooding and a couple minor repairs. Others were not nearly as blessed. All of that wind and rain, while scary at times, actually provided […]
Train Piñata Tutorial
Reed turned three yesterday (Oh dear, my sweet baby boy….No! Hold it together, Christy!), and for his party theme he chose trains. At first I wasn’t sure if I could manage a piñata for this party…but then it came to me. Boxes. Boxes are the key.
Unicorns
Our oldest little lady turned nine last week. It seems so hard to believe that she is already nine. Part of me wants to cry for the moments that are gone forever and part of me rejoices for the special young lady she is and will continue to become.
She’s Seven
Today my Chloe is seven years old. Seven. With each passing moment, I am both astounded and overjoyed at our time with this little beauty.
Happy Birthday, Willow-bee!
Our sweet Willow turned 5 on Halloween. Five. Hard to believe my sweet girl is five already, but so it goes. They grow so quickly. I have loved all of our Willow moments. She came into this world so peacefully, but howled like a storm for the first year of life. She has been just […]
Happy Birthday, Reed!

Through hypnobirthing techniques we learned, we were able to have a nice, peaceful beginning to Reed’s sweet new life. Here is […]
A Baking Party
As my children love to do, Chloe chose a theme for her birthday party this year. She dreams of becoming a baker and a chef when she grows up. She has already designed her restaurant and chosen what food she’ll serve her guests. She’s quite precious. On baking day, she’s in our kitchen the entire […]
Turning 6
Today my Chloe turned 6 years old. It’s amazing how quickly those six years have gone by. Chloe has always been a very bright girl. She is so attentive to everything and doesn’t seem to miss any part of life as it goes whirling by us all. I am always impressed by her desire to […]
Happy Birthday to my Handy Hubby!
Today my partner in life, love, and happiness is another year older. We have been doing a lot lately to celebrate him and how much he means to our family. We have given his office a beautiful makeover (which I will share with you sometime soon). We threw him a fabulous party, complete with his […]
