The Fabulous Flubber!
It’s that time again! Time for yet ANOTHER science experiment. Emma is required to do science experiments along with a presentation board several times a year. We’ve done some fun ones, like blowing up soap in the microwave and staying up all night watching the […]
Weekend Loss
I had a really long post written in detail explaining everything that happened to us this weekend. I’ve decided to cut to the chase and give you the Reader’s Digest version. Friday night Pip, one of our new guinea pigs, died in Emma’s hands. We […]
Use Your Photography!
I love magazines! If you’ve followed me for any length of time you know I have a habit of pulling a ton of magazines apart for so many wonderful ideas. I pull out design ideas, inspiration ideas, travel ideas, and even ideas for cooking. I’m […]

365 Photo a Day-Week Two
I made it through my second week of “a photo a day,” and actually used my camera over my cell phone. The one thing I noticed in doing this project, I was taken back to my days in photography school. It reminded me of when […]
Missing: Best Friend
So this weekend, Emma went to bed on Sunday night and woke up to Tilly, her hamster, and best friend missing. It was as though someone came and plucked her out of her cage and left. The only disturbance was a fallen water bottle and […]
The Best Muffins!
When I was in my early twenties, I was newly married and starting to have my children. It was the beginning of trying to figure out how to be a wife, mother, and still be able to work. I didn’t even know how to cook […]
365 Photo a Day-Week One
Rather than post a photo a day here on the blog I decided to do a post of my week of photos a day. Since today is the 7th, I wanted to post my first week of photos. Being that I flaked on the first […]
