  • Project Life 2013 | October

    ,

    I'm still chugging along on Project Life for LAST year. And am I crazy to contemplate working on 2014 after I'm done with 2013? I've talked to a couple of people who do a year at a time and it seems doable but holy wow, it's intimidating! As always, with Project Life when I'm this… Read more

  • One Month Later | Emily

    ,

    The kids have been in school a little over a month now and what a difference a month makes. Seriously. It blows my mind how the kids have changed and grown in just under five weeks. I blogged about Andrew and Libby last week and now it's Em's turn. Emily – has one foot out… Read more

  • Pinterest Inspiration

    ,

    I love Pinterest and love the kick in the pants it seems to give me just when I need motivation. I've found some great recipes, patterns, DIY links, and so much more.

  • One Month Later | Libby

  • Project Life App | A Mini-Review

    ,

    I tried out the Project Life app last week and was impressed for the most part. My first thought was that it had the potential to help me catch up with 2014's album very, very quickly. And after working with it, I think it does have that potential with a few small caveats. What I… Read more

  • In other milestones

    I think children should come with a warning that time speeds up once they reach their teen years. I feel as though I'm in a time warp where my kids are bulleting through life and reaching new milestones almost daily. Some examples: 1 – The girls drove themselves to a high school football game and… Read more

  • No apology necessary

    ,

    About a year ago, we got rid of cable TV and started watching select shows only through streaming services. But after struggling the whole year to find an antenna that would allow us to receive local channels, we gave up and had cable re-installed.*  Andrew and I were sitting on the couch yesterday and he… Read more

  • Breathing life into Project Life

    ,

    Hmmmmm………the Project Life app is now available. What do you think??? Will YOU do project life on your phone? Or ipad?  I'm definitely intrigued and am going to try it. It might just breathe new life into project life for me. Which is sadly stuck in August of 2013. 🙁 Also, there's this little nugget… Read more

  • Emily’s Patchwork Quilt

    Last summer, Emily asked for “an old-fashioned patchwork quilt.” I let her go through my stash of fabrics and we decided to dip into my grandmother’s fabrics, too. When my grandmother died nine years ago, I got all of her quilting supplies and a lot of her fabric. I started quilting partially because of her… Read more
