Nordstrom Home Sale Picks (Under $50)

Happy New Year and Happy Monday, friends!  I hope you had a festive and fun New Years, even if it involved yoga pants and cups of tea.  I managed to make it til midnight and then spent all day on the couch yesterday.  It was a cold and rainy day, perfect for enjoying the fire in comfort. :) Today is the last day of the Nordstrom Half Yearly Sale, and so I felt I'd be remiss if I didn't share some of the great deals they've got for the … [Read more...]

In Case You Missed It: January

Well, a few days got away from me and here we are into February!  Yikes!  If you follow me on Instagram, you saw that I broke away for a girls' weekend at the beach and got the bonus fun of celebrating a dear old friend's 50th birthday at the same time.  It was a good time and now it's back to cold/rainy/busy days here at home. :) I've got a list of posts for y'all coming in the next few weeks, but thought I'd flash back to January today, just … [Read more...]

In Case You Missed It {October}

Holy Cow.  October flew by in a hurry, didn't it?

I think I'm actually ready to get some Christmas crafting going soon... is that scary or what? ;-)  Unfortunately when I look at our calendar for the month, I'm not seeing much time to spare!  Guess I'll have to get clever, … [Read more...]

Looky What I Found {Antique Map of the South}

Well, I'm still sorting out all the great information I got at Haven and having fun visiting the blogs of the ladies I met -- so much talent out there in the blogosphere!  But a busy household waits for no one, so I'm getting hardly anything a few things done around here, too.
