Sedum Rubrotinctum
Last week, I took my kids to Lowe’s. I must start early if I want home improvement stores to be one of their favorite places on earth. We picked up a few of these guys: These are my first succulents ever! Can you believe it? After Nester and Sherry posted about their succulents, I began…

Easter Hoppenings
I hope you caught my pun in the title of this post. I love a good, corny pun. Here’s an update of our Easter weekend in pics. I love a good sugar cookie recipe. But sometimes you just need to start with a mix. True that. And you can’t have good sugar cookie fun without…

Parade of Homes
A while ago, my hubby and I went on a pre-baby trip. We left our little girl with some friends and went away for a night so we could have some “just us” time before we added a new member to our family. It was great, by the way, and I highly recommend it. Anyway,…

Beautiful Bowtiful
Ridiculous, right? My title for this post? Maybe so. But that’s beside the point. The real point is this… I have a little girl. She happens to have hair…quite a lot of it actually. I was so afraid she would be bald when she was born, so I had just counted on the fact that…
