I’ve never been a beach kind of girl, but the two things that I really took to when moving to California were the mountains and the vegetation. When we found our home I was beyond excited to find out that we have citrus trees…
There are some things in life that burn the best kind of memories into your brain. Those unforgettable moments of sheer joy that are too strong to fall with time. For me, it was Sundays with the smells of pot roast cooking, running around…
I never thought I’d take any sort of advice from the Kardashian family, but I have to admit that it was Khloe’s brunette to blonde transformation that made me want to change up my hair. So I did it. I’m a blonde! I went…
I have to admit that when it came time to do the cake tasting for our wedding, I was just along for the ride. I was not a sweets kind of girl and I would often request a birthday pie instead of a cake.…
My little baby boy turned six months old this past Friday. He has such a sweet demeanor and the more places that we take him, the more my confidence grows in bringing him to new places. Tyler has been begging me to bring the…
Remember Tom Hanks’ character in You’ve Got Mail? He said, “Don’t you love New York in the fall? It makes me wanna buy school supplies. I would send you a bouquet of newly sharpened pencils if I knew your name and address.” Well yes,…

Tyler and I take a vacation once a year, mostly marking our wedding anniversary on October 27th. So when we decided we were ready for a baby we bumped our trip up to late March and headed off to Japan. While we were there…
We’ve all been there. Moving into a home can be just as much overwhelming as it is exciting. My husband and I have a habit of inviting my parents to fly in from across the country to visit within three weeks of moving. Even…
You know how when you go on Pinterest you usually wind up repinning the same theme over and over? Fitness, food, travel, wedding decor, beauty tips, etc. Well my weakness is mid-century modern decor and furniture. I could salivate over that stuff all day…
I have to admit that when we first designed Fox’s nursery we were not thinking of practicality. The storage options were slim because how much room does a baby really need? Ha. After a couple months of putting everything in canvas bins we decided…
Who knew there was such a marvelous day? I, for one, am more than excited since this also means the uncovering of new emojis – hitting June 2016 – that include a FOX! Since my little boy’s first name is Fox, I’m looking forward…
