Easter 2017
I’m deep into prep for tomorrow’s Easter party, so that means it’s time to see what we did last year! Our traditional Easter menu never changes, but I always mix it up with the cake…which was gorgeous last year! Continue reading

Yummy Homemade Trail Mix Bars
I discovered the most delicious trail mix a few weeks ago at World Market but I realized the cost per ounce was insane so I decided to make it myself after my son and I downed the whole bag in a few days.

DIY Wedding: The Week Before (And Lessons Learned)
The "prep crew" enjoying my dad's AMAZING dinner!
As far as weddings go, I’m pretty sure ours was as do-it-yourself as you can get. I’ve had a few weeks now to think about how it all turned out, so before I post the official photos, I thought I’d share with you how we pulled it off (and some lessons learned). Maybe our experience will help you decide to (or not to) take on your own wedding! Continue reading
