Rock On

October 18, 2013 by Amanda 5 Comments

She fell asleep in my arms tonight for the first time in ages. She's three now, so too busy for cuddles with her momma most of the time. But today she was fighting a bit of a flu bug and was extra clingy and I scooped her up into my lap and we sat in the gliding rocking chair and swished back and … [Read more...]

Braidy-Cat

October 11, 2013 by Amanda 2 Comments

My hair has about three style settings: loose waves, straight-ironed, or slicked back in a top knot bun. Pretty basic. I have combed through pages of Hair Inspiration on Pinterest but can never seem to find neither the time nor dedicated interest to sit down and try a new style as I am rushing … [Read more...]

PMS: Pre-Menstrual (p)SYCHO

October 9, 2013 by Amanda 1 Comment

I can tell it's here when my eyes prick with tears while listening to some dumb song on the radio. Or how when my husband gets a bad case of the hiccups and instead of laughing I want to punch him in the neck. Or when my kids are fighting and in 0.3 seconds my blood begins to boil and I yell louder … [Read more...]

In Her Element

October 2, 2013 by Amanda Leave a Comment

This love of horses she has, it's so beautiful to see. It's something that is just in her. I am a city slicker, through and through, but she is a farm girl at heart. Ride on, Karenna!   … [Read more...]

Fall Uniform: Updated

September 30, 2013 by Amanda 3 Comments

I forgot to mention one of the other things in my fall wardrobe. A timeless classic, really. The neon unitard with sheer midriff.   Dress it up, dress it down. The options are limitless. (For the record, I was at a dress-up 80s gala this weekend.)   … [Read more...]

My Fall Uniform

September 26, 2013 by Amanda 3 Comments

The weather has turned and I have stashed away my string bikini and Daisy Dukes and dusted off my fall uniform. Long cardigan, tall boots, black skinnies and a flowy shirt. Oh, and a $14 Pumpkin Spice latte from you-know-where. Happy Fall!   … [Read more...]

I Can’t Can

September 21, 2013 by Amanda 3 Comments

Our garden is overflowing right now. Which is cool, except I am anything but a pioneer. I have carved out the time to make homemade Cream of Fresh Tomato Soup and it's delicious but I have just been tossing it in my deep freeze as I make it because I, for the life of me, am afraid to try … [Read more...]

Asking the Big Questions

September 18, 2013 by Amanda 2 Comments

We are asking big questions right now. Questions like: how do we want to live, how do we want to work, what are the real priorities for our life and family? It's so easy to rattle off phrases like, "My kids and marriage come first!" but then live as though the opposite is true, giving all your best … [Read more...]

First Day of Preschool!

September 12, 2013 by Amanda 5 Comments

If there's one thing we haven't seen enough of lately, it's kids' First Day of School photos. So, let's fix that problem! Here is Brinley on her first day of preschool. Rocking the whale backpack, of course. The house is oddly quiet. But it's kind of OK. … [Read more...]
