Romy & Piper’s 8th Birthday, Harry Potter Style
I truly cannot believe the girls are EIGHT! In my head I always kind of thought they’d suddenly seem “big” when they were 8—their baby faces would leave me and I would feel a shift, my little girls would be on their way to BIG. And I was right: their faces have thinned out, their…
Easter 2025 Recap + Links
I didn’t get it together in time to tell you what I was PLANNING to put in the girls’ baskets…and I don’t even feel like I have the energy to give a full recap of Easter here but I’ll attempt ;). It was sweet, the girls are such a cute age, and I treasure every…
“Adopt-a-Pet Party, Easy How-To”

To this day, she still gives us “pajamas” on Christmas Eve (I put it in quotes cause now sometimes it’s sweats, loungewear, whatever we want that year!) and I’ve carried on the tradition with the girls. Usually, they end up…

Ideas for Hostess Gifts
I love to host, but one of the unexpected reasons I’ve come to love it is that it gives me a greater appreciating and awareness of what goes into other people hosting. I appreciate SO much when I get to BE hosted. That being said, I’m actually not great about knowing what to bring, especially…
