Ah, August. You know, every August I feel the same- completely exhausted from the last days of heat, total joy from the monsoons in our dry desert home, and (this year especially) a giddiness for Fall to arrive. I’m craving boots and crisp mornings and pumpkin flavored everything. A little update from our humble abode: […]
Ah, Summertime.
30 Jul
What is it about summer time that makes you- how do I say this… … … ah- totally worthless and lazy? Maybe it’s just me, but when July comes around I can’t bring myself to do… well, anything really. Unless of course, I’ve been hosting a million Norwex parties, volunteering at church, traveling to my […]

Mamas: Just Had to Share!
8 Jul
Hey friends! Happy Tuesday! I’d be lying if I said I had this post planned… but I read a blog post last week that I’ve been going back to in my mind over and over again. I don’t read a lot, so when I do and I like it? I want to tell the world! […]
Like the Rain
2 Jul
It’s raining today in the hot, sunny dessert. It was 106 degrees yesterday so it’s a welcome change in the weather and just what my little garden needs. It doesn’t rain that much here in southern NM, as you can imagine. And somehow- every time it does- I feel like it is Jesus’ smile and […]
DIY Home Hub
25 Jun
I’m a creative addict… sewing, painting, decorating, organizing- you name it! And I have a sad confession to make… I like new things. Scratch that- love new things. Crave new things! My home interior is no exception. Before our daughter was born I was a looks-over-function kind of gal, but now? Now I need something beautiful AND functional. And […]

DIY Tufted Headboard
3 Jun
I’ve been meaning to post this sucker for a while. I had been dreaming about a sexy, glamorous headboard for our bedroom for quite some time and I took my time gathering all the pieces. We put this together about a year ago and it’s held up great!! …with the exception of 2 buttons falling […]
