The idea of “having something to look forward to” crossed my mind the other day.

Filed Under: 10 things I love

A heartwarming list of “things I love and don’t want to forget” this January: 1. if you ask Natalie, “what’s your name?” she puts her hands to her chest and while grinning says, “Nani”. And we can not (seriously, can not) get enough 2. red checkered tablecloths. The festive pop of color with the yard-covered… [Read More]

I’m so happy this specific week is finally upon us. We’ve all missed Zack terribly, terribly, terribly, and later this week he is flying in for a weekend visit. The kids are going to be all giggles when they see him, I can’t wait. And let’s be honest, I’m sure there’ll be some tears. We’ve… [Read More]

Zack and I went ice skating last month in Los Angeles. I was about 5 months pregnant, and as Zack laced up my skates it was right then we realized this was our very first time ice skating together! Of all the years we’ve lived in cold weather states, of all the adventures and dates… [Read More]

Around here, we are… …staying inside as it’s been cold, cold, cold lately! The winter wind is brutal, although I love listening to it from inside. It crushes me to have to tell Maxwell it’s too cold to play outside. All our sweet boy wants to do these days is sled and shovel. …packing up… [Read More]

Well friends, I can’t keep this a secret any longer… If you’re a longtime reader, you probably remember that Zack and I were living in Detroit when I started this blog, seven years ago.
