Facebook just informed me this was my Most Liked Photo of 2013. This was my first live television appearance on a Milwaukee morning show…and I totally bombed. This is back when I was a full-time blogger, and I had the honor of representing some pretty awesome national brands, like Lowe’s Home Improvement, HGTV, Delta Faucets,
Kate and I like to start decorating for Christmas the day after Halloween so we can enjoy those twinkle lights and good cheer a bit longer. This year we wanted to have a little fun in light of the dumpster fire that’s been 2020, so we decided to create a Coronavirus Christmas Tree for our living room. We still have our traditional

Anyone else feel like life is being written by a 4th grader right now? “And then there was this virus 🦠 and everyone was scared. And then the world ran out of toilet paper 🧻 Yeah, and then there was no school for like a month. And then it snowed!” I seriously can’t believe I
“I still remember Miss Bessie singing…” Okay. I don’t. That’s not my story to tell, but this one is… I was raised a country music loving girl thanks to my stepdad Rich and his blue Ford pick-up truck. He’d pick me and two of my sisters up for weekend visits, put Q106 on the radio,
Sometimes it drives me crazy seeing Kate’s socks cast off without a care, lying on the floor. But tonight I turned the corner, saw these little lime green wads of cotton, smiled, and thought, “Kate was here.” I was struck by how beautiful it is – this colorful little bread crumb of my daughter’s day.
Bragging like a bragger for finishing the Madison Mini Half Marathon – 13.1 miles! Woohoo! It was my slowest race, and also my sweetest. Six months ago I experienced a traumatic brain injury. I may share more at some point, but the short version is I lost my speech, my short-term memory, and my ability
I waited 20 years to tell the story of how G and I got together…in hopes that the statute of limitations has run out on some of these details. Twenty years ago today a really nice boy took a chance on a rough around the edges girl. We’d met a few months prior at Coconut Joe’s
I’m completely obsessed with our new entryway antique church bench! G wanted seating in our entryway for getting shoes off and on, and I wanted more antique items in our home, so I asked him to keep an eye on Craigslist for an antique church pew or theater seats. Imagine my shock when he found the
Get your pearls out because you’re probably going to want to clutch ‘em. I didn’t decorate for Christmas the past two years. Christmas has always kind of been my thing. I legit had my bedroom decorated like Christmas all year long when I was a kid – Santas everywhere, twinkle lights, red and green quilt
