Post November Gratitude

Apparently, I needed a little blogging break and didn't even know it.  I'm not sure that I've every gone as long between posts as I did between now and and my previous post - a whole month - and I'm already feeling rusty from the absence o[...]

Preparing for November and 30 Days of Thanks

Fall is flying by.  It seems like only just recently we were choosing pumpkins at a pumpkin patch and now I realized we need to carve them tonight because tomorrow is Halloween!  I cannot believe that October is ending.  Act[...]

Post-Thanksgiving Gratitude

This is my last thankful post for 30 Days of Thanks.  On Thanksgiving there was so much to be thankful for: both girls cooperating so that Chris and I could sleep in until 9:30(!), of course delicious food, Chris being home with us whe[...]

Thankful for New Beginnings

Another week of thanks has flown by and it is nearly the end of this little project.  If this year is anything like last year, it will feel very strange December 1st to not post what I am thankful for and to not be able to read other peopl[...]

30 Days of Thanks: How Things Turned Out

I posted a silly Instagram yesterday about being thankful for bucket car seats so I could get things done while Zara snoozed, but in reality the past few days I have been thankful for much, much bigger things.  You see, one year ago today[...]

30 Days of Thanks: Ms. J

Today I am thankful for our wonderful mother's helper/babysitter. "Ms. J" comes to our house two mornings a week which enables me to catch up on cleaning, work on websites, and even go to regular P.E.O. meetings again.  The girls love h[...]

30 Days of Thanks: My Mom

Today, I am thankful for my mom.  She was the very best mom she could be through some really tough situations, and she never gave up on me.  We definitely had some rocky moments when I was a teenager (boy, do I have karma coming to me[...]

Z was Raja in an Aladdin production through her dance studio @pasgeorgetown this evening and she did such a great job. I loved watching her. She took a year off dance and is getting back into it and you'd barely know she took any time off, plus she had a big smile on her face the whole time - I could tell she was having a ton of fun. ♥️

What happens when you go on a long weekend trip with only your husband, no kids, and no agenda? 

Lots of walking, cocktails in the middle of the day, singing at a piano bar, and time to write a blog post for the first time in nearly two years. Which I did! 

😮 For real. LOL 😊

Today Chris and I have been married for 15 years. We're celebrating with our first weekend away from children while my mom watches all four girls. We rented an old Victorian from the 1800s near the coast in Galveston, Texas and spent the day at a spa, eating delicious food, walking the beach under the stars, and finished the night with a bottle of bourbon saved from when we lived on Nantucket. I'm not sure I could have asked for a much better day. I even had an oppotunity to get out the lightship basket purse Chris gave me for our 5th anniversary. ♥️

We had a cold snap and yesterday we had to get all bundled up for Zara's soccer game. It was 30 degrees and, despite these pictures, Vivi's patience for being out there did not last long. Tomorrow it's supposed to be 80 degrees and we're really looking forward to warmth again.

By the way, my awesome gaiter came from our client @isacattostudio. Isa paints patterns and makes really beautiful textiles and notebooks with her patterns. ♥️ her work and team.
