A few months ago, I made some triangle bunting for my three year old’s bedroom. As I was attempting to explain to my son the aesthetic appeal of home decor, I told him we’d hang a picture of one of Pop’s cows. Case was somewhat confused about the triangles hanging in his room, but once… Read More
Mother’s Day is just a few days away, and I think the tradition of giving flowers for Mother’s Day is a beautiful one. We went back to Peter’s home town last weekend and had the opportunity to walk through an Amish nursery. When we got there, I told Peter I wished I had taken my… Read More

I bought it knowing I would paint it and put it somewhere. My little cutting board made it through the move from the condo to the current house my… Read More
Posted by: Kelli I don’t remember my dad helping us, but I am sure we couldn’t have stacked all the logs on our own. My sisters and I had a log cabin of sorts growing up. We had to climb up to the top of the stacked logs to get in because we didn’t have… Read More
I had one of those days where things just weren’t going well. Nothing horrible happened; it was just a combination of small things and a not good attitude on my part.
