Hope you all had a lovely weekend! Did anyone stay up late watching the Grammy's last night? I'm not one to watch award shows but I try not to miss the Grammy's. Especially with Sir Paul McCartney playing twice during the show and Adele sweeping the awards. Totally worth being a little exhausted this morning. Freezer paper stencils are now my "go-to" way to personalize a gift for the little ones in my life. One of our little loves turned a year old this weekend so I wanted to make her a … [Read more...]

I love lists. I love writing them, crossing them out and making them for no reason. When I saw this fun little party being hosted over at Pefectly Imperfect via Cassie and Gail, I knew I had to join.

I should have known it wouldn't last. I killed a succulent. Aren't they supposed to be hearty little plants? The cute succulent garden I had growing in in the living room is no longer a lively addition to our space.Instead, I'm faced with this pathetic sight. Rest in peace little plant. I'm sorry I failed you.I still think my track record is improving. Two out of three isn't so bad! They lasted about four months too.
