Happy Birthday, Nana!
Living a good distance from my family means we don’t get to share in as many special occasions as we’d like to. We miss holidays and birthdays and many other special occasions.

This past weekend came and went and with it…my birthday. I always enjoy my birthday. I can’t even really say why, but it’s always been a day that I love. Now, with a family it’s even more special. We didn’t do anything extraordinary. Scott had planned a party, but by the time my birthday rolls […]

A Party for Our Littlest Lady
Laelia’s Birthday Dress
Perhaps you’ve noticed a theme for the week. Laelia. Today, I sewed her dress for her birthday party on Saturday. I am really excited about how it turned out. I made a little bow to match. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that she doesn’t pull out of her hair. She’s not a fan of bows, […]
Happy Birthday to My Sweet Laelia
Today my little Laeli-bug turned two. She is such a sweet little ray of sunshine in each of our lives. We wanted her to have a special day–even Chloe and Willow worked hard to make this day wonderful for her. On the eve of a birthday, I love getting ready in the quiet stillness of […]
A Year of Holidays Party
This past week, my mother visited, along with my brother and his fam. We had a FANTASTIC week! We went to the beach, swam, and had lots of fun adventures together. I wanted this week to be extra special for the kids. He has two sweet kiddos who we don’t get to see very often. […]
