• Choosing Art for the Bedroom

    I have partnered with Photowall for this post. All expressed opinions are 100% my own. Full disclosure. Hey Friends! I hope this July finds you well. Things are still pretty low key here. We have started having a few small family get togethers but are staying home most of the time. Life is sure busy with an almost 9 month old, very spirited three year old and seven and nine year olds! I never know how the day will go. We make the best of staying home and have certainly been enjoying the warm summer weather. A much needed change these days is that little Fletcher has *finally* learned how…

  • Photographing the Youngest (how being the fourth changes things)

    My sweet baby boy Fletcher just turned six months old on April 14th. Maybe it’s just because he is the youngest of four, and I am one busy mama, but these months have flown by. I feel like he was just born, or rather, I was just 9 months pregnant feeling like he would never, ever come. But came he did and grow he did. Very quickly.

I saved up for a special lens and would…

At our house, we are all currently in a seven day quarantine because poor little Fletcher developed a cough over Easter weekend. He seems to be doing okay, no fever or breathing difficulties. Just a rough cough that has made a few nights less than ideal. Having all four kids at home and trying to manage schoolwork for the older ones (plus their google meets and zoom sessions) while tending to the little ones has been my biggest challenge. I know others…

    Vintage Shabby Chic Valentine's Day Mantel Decor

    Happy February! With Valentine’s Day quickly approaching, I wanted to share an oldie but a goody (at least in my humble opinion!). We are going back to 2014 when I decorated our vintage mantel for the holiday of love. I didn’t buy anything new for this vintage inspired mantel vignette. I simply shopped my home and thought outside of the box. Back to Blogging Illness has been rampant in our home for the past few months. We’ve had the flu, stomach viruses and lots of colds pass through. Even poor little Fletcher caught RSV just before he turned three months. It has been a rough winter. I hope the groundhog…
