  • What is Fancy Coffee Friday, Anyways?

    If you’ve been keeping up with me online over the past few years, you’ve no doubt heard me mention Fancy Coffee Friday. I’ve talked about it repeatedly on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook, and it’s even been mentioned in a couple of my past blog posts – both here and here. But what is it? And…

  • My First Thanksgiving. Like, a REAL Thanksgiving. At My House.

    Thanksgiving was kind of a big deal for me this year… It was kind of my first Thanksgiving. No, seriously. I’m 36, and I’ve had lots of Thanksgivings before. Some good, some not so good. Some interrupted by my brother in law Chris chopping off the tip of his finger with an axe while he…

    I’ve totally fallen off the wagon with belly pics during this pregnancy – I’m hoping my pregnant Halloween costume will suffice! This is one I’ve had in the back of my mind since 2010 when we were expecting Phil. Only problem then was he was born in September. Wah wah wahhhhhhh. But like any great…

  • Halloween Fun: Phil the Superhero (with video!)

    I love a good dose of Halloween fun, and yesterday was chock full of it! It was a slow work day, so we were all able to finally carve pumpkins. I was actually getting kind of anxious that we wouldn’t get around to that part of Halloween this year; Josh is workin nights now, and…

  • My Fistpump of the Day – Potty Training Edition

    It’s felt like a bit of a rough road lately, with nothing letting up and zero chance of catching a break. Major computer issues all summer long. Summer transitions into fall. The desktop computer is taken care of, and a new glorious machine is in place. You’d think we could move on from talking about…

    I KNEW there was a reason Phil was so excited to go with me to my branding meeting at Teach Right in Rincon today! He was so good, he got to pick out a little something for himself. Me? I’m just super excited for all the changes coming that local toy shop’s way, and even…
