Since the PCP will be living it up on Thanksgiving break for his actual birthday, we went ahead and carried in these darling little mini doughnuts for the class yesterday.

All you need to pull them together are 8″ lollipop sticks, ribbon or twine, the free printable tags, a hole puncher and the little doughnuts, of course!

World of Coca-Cola

November 19, 2013July 28, 2015

This post was rescued from a sad life in my drafts folder… hence the summertime attire. I relish the opportunity to do something one on one with one of the littles. And since I spend most days with Whit while John’s at school, I jumped at the chance to spend an afternoon with just John… Read More

The Banquette

November 18, 2013July 28, 2015

If I were a betting woman, I’d say this strange little niche in our den was probably a wet bar back in the day. Call me crazy, but the weird overhead light and outlet placement kind of give it away. Before we moved in, we had our general contractor build this sweet little banquette in… Read More

Much like last year, I expect this to get loads of use between the four of us and the crew of others we always seem to have coming and going.… Read More

Chalkboard Clothes Line

November 15, 2013July 28, 2015

Honey’s been busy as a bee building chalkboards, what between the one for the porch and this new edition to John’s room. It hangs behind the door next to the desk area. I mapped out a J using the same process I did for the baby’s W last year. I also fashioned a little “clothes… Read More

First Reconciliation

November 14, 2013November 20, 2016

After over a year’s worth of preparation and anticipation, John completed the sacrament of First Reconciliation tonight. It was remarkable to stand just outside the heavy wooden of the doors of our beautiful church and quietly observe him return from the vestibule, light a candle and pray for God’s mercy and forgiveness – he seemed… Read More
