things around here

    A few photos from today: Sometimes yellow is just what you need to add some sunshine to your home. I’m so inspired by this spread from Holiday with Matthew Mead {I know it is a holiday publication, but I want my house to reflect this… Continue Reading…things around here

    these hands

      I took these photos one afternoon a few weeks ago.  It was a moment when I was truly cherishing my little ones. With their sweet hands that clean. And build. And craft. And draw. But I’m afraid I don’t always cherish these moments. Too often,… Continue Reading…these hands

      crazy

        random notes for today: If you ordered an art print last week and have not yet received it : IT IS ON ITS WAY! . . . . . . . . . . . My baby is S E V E N today. Seven!… Continue Reading…crazy

        the lamp print

          I wasn’t planning on sharing this story – the story of how the lamp print came about – but it seems appropriate after all of the wonderfully positive feedback and questions about it. It is pretty personal to me and if you aren’t in the… Continue Reading…the lamp print

          be intentional

            Last night my best friend and I were doing our bible study and the word ‘intentional’ kept coming up.  She mentioned that be intentional has been a phrase on her heart for several weeks – a phrase she wants to paint over her doorway in… Continue Reading…be intentional

            live where you live

              2011 is my year to let loose. Have a little more fun. Be daring and crazy. You probably won’t find me sky diving or shaving my head, but I do hope to take life a little less seriously. Take, for example, decorating my home. I… Continue Reading…live where you live

              on my mind

                I bought a sandwich today for $9. It was really good, but seriously nine dollars?!! In case you are wondering it was the Roberto Benigni from Pasta & Co. and if I were the calorie counting kind of girl I’m pretty sure I would be… Continue Reading…on my mind

                my favorite things

                  Well who knew my confession of weakness would be so beautifully received?!! Thank you for your kind comments on yesterday’s post. Sometimes it just feels good to be vulnerable and trust that the Lord will use it to speak to someone going through something similar.… Continue Reading…my favorite things

                  fraud

                    I have a small handful of clients for whom I design fancy holiday cards each year. They know I’m a mom, but I try to be as professional as possible when working with them – dressing up for meetings, taking phone calls  away from the… Continue Reading…fraud

                    twirl

                      It was so fun to post new photos of Audrey’s nursery last Friday and you all said some very kind things about it. Thank you! But the best part for me was that many of you were somehow impacted by the scripture in her room. … Continue Reading…twirl

                      keeping up the house

                        I received a question the other day from a reader {and another one the same day from a real life friend} about how I keep my house clean. Now, let me clarify for just a second: my house is not necessarily clean, just picked up. … Continue Reading…keeping up the house
