Dixie Delights - musings, goings & doings of a so-southern girl

Savannah: Beach Bound

August 5, 2012July 28, 2015

We spent the whole rain-free day soaking up the sun down at Tybee – the babies building countless sand castles and sand creatures while the PCP spent hours on his skim board (much of the time with two little ones on his heels.)      Just one more day in Savannah before heading home… xoxo… Read More

Savannah: Baby’s Big Day

August 4, 2012July 28, 2015

With the PCP off at Sea Camp, we decided to treat the babies (yes, I realize they are three years old) to a day out on the town.  Our first stop was the Build-a-Bear Workshop at Oglethorpe Mall! After a marathon session of deciding on which creatures we’d bring to life, the boys loved operating… Read More

Savannah: Sea Camp

August 3, 2012July 28, 2015

For the third summer in a row, John spent time at Tybee Island Marine Science Center’s Sea Camp.  I must say that each day when I pick him up, he is more talkative and excited about all the things he learned than at any other camp or after any day at school– and that’s saying… Read More

Savannah: Girls Day Out

August 2, 2012July 28, 2015

Mother was a doll to mind the littles ALL DAY while Sister and I shopped, dined and primped! Our day started at Christopher’s Salon where I had my hair highlighted and cut.  Christopher and JB run the two chair salon out of their home and Mother and Daddy-O have been raving about them for ages. … Read More

Savannah: The Beach

July 31, 2012July 28, 2015

We spent a wonderfully cloudy afternoon rollicking in the waves down at Tybee.  99% of the time, life with the three boys looks pretty much like this… …but occasionally I am able to snag a sweet moment like this… And while it’s pretty much a miracle to have two littles looking at the camera and… Read More

Savannah: One Last Summer Visit

July 31, 2012July 28, 2015

With school starting in a few short weeks (say it isn’t so!), we’re making one last trip down to Savannah for the summer.  After practicing for hours on end in the car, the PCP was absolutely giddy to get to historic Leopold’s Ice Cream Parlor to participate in the “I Pledge” program where children are… Read More

Rosemary Beach: Until Next Year

July 29, 2012July 28, 2015

Today was our last day at the beach…many memories were made this week!  Before we hit the road home, I tortured my boys with family photos.  By the time we got ready, I figured the beach would be swarming with sun lovers so we took to one of Rosemary’s lovely tree lined walkways for this… Read More

I was and avid reader and dreamer as a little girl I was and avid reader and dreamer as a little girl, and opening this felt like discovering a treasure chest. Honestly, it radiated just as much happiness and joy at 50. ❤️

My friend Katie recently launched @itsyourstorygifts, creating reading gift sets centered around a surprise chapter book and absolutely stuffed with bookish goodies. She sent me one of her Signature Book Boxes to experience for myself, and as you can see… it just kept going.

Everything was prepared with so much care and thought. I immediately pictured the child who would absolutely light up opening one of these, whether it arrived for a birthday, to celebrate something special, during a hard season or simply to say, “I’m thinking of you.”

I’m sharing much more about Katie, her new business and what’s inside the box on the blog today.

And stay tuned. We have something fun coming later this week!

Mahjong, but make it cards. @playhootenanny gifte Mahjong, but make it cards.

@playhootenanny gifted me their Mahjong Playing Cards, and Honey and I took them along on our recent weekend away. They’re beautiful, easy to pack and such a fun way to play when traveling with an entire mahjong setup isn’t exactly practical.

We picked it up surprisingly quickly, and these have officially earned a spot in my travel bag.

I shared more on the blog today, including a link to the set on Amazon!

This trip was never really about New York. It was This trip was never really about New York.

It was about watching two incredible kids chase big dreams, cheering them on from the front row, and soaking up every minute together.

The city was amazing… but these memories mean even more. 🤍🗽

To JB and Cee: we couldn’t be more proud. Enjoy summer in the city!
