So much to write about, so little time! I am so excited Thanksgiving is a week away I can’t wait to host the big dinner! Growing up, our house was always full of relatives, laughter, and lots of amazing smells and food. When I was 12 we moved away from family though and things were … Read more
Big Sitter!
Check out the big sitter! Garrett turned 6 months old on Friday and he’s right on track! He’s been sitting for a while (with help) but just the past week he can stay put, unassisted!

It’s Beginning to Smell a lot like Christmas!
Yum! Jim and I were at the mall Friday when our noses led us into Bath and Body Works. We took one wiff of this and were sold! It smells like a fresh candy cane and when you put it on it has a cooling effect. They have a bunch of different types (caramel corn, … Read more

Love Land’s End
I just made my first purchase from Land’s End and I was so impressed by the service! I’ve called the 1-800 number twice and both times a real, live person has picked up after one ring and said “Hello, thank you for calling Land’s End”. No automated menu, no “press 1 to place an order”….I … Read more
