Where Bloggers Live: Childhood Memories
This is one of the few pictures of my sisters and me that exist of our time in Italy. I used to wear the heck out of those suspenders, I even had a matching baseball cap that I wore when I was feeling particularly snazzy. And that watch? It had the words to Cyndi Lauper’s…
10 on the 10th | March
As usual, I’m late. I don’t really have a valid excuse. Especially since I look forward to these monthly blogging parties. It’s so fun learning more about my blogging buddies beyond our outfits. Although I do love a good outfit post, because a girl can always use the inspiration. Anyway back to the matter at…

March 2018
You guys, March was so much better than I could have ever imagined! I celebrated my 45th birthday and The Hubs and I found out that we’ve been married 23 years and not 24 {thank you, Facebook}. And, of course, there were the adventures in camping. Seriously, how many bad camping trips can two people…
February 2018
I don’t have too many complaints about February. In fact, I’d say it was a pretty good month. We had some days warm enough that I was almost convinced that summer had come early. Then I was quickly reminded of the fact that it’s still winter. But, that’s how February is, right? For the super…
