Announcing Anna Dasher

January 12, 2022January 12, 2022

If you’ve been here for a while, you will know Santa brings the boys four gifts each Christmas. Something you want, something you need, something to do and something to read. Well, over time the something to read has become the most womp womp gift of the lot. We’ve done guide books and fun books… Read More

On My Bedside {Imaginary Friend}

January 11, 2022January 12, 2022

It’s been a while since I shared my recent reads, and they’ve piled up a bit! Imaginary Friend by Stephen Chbosky was a page turner (mostly). It was suspenseful and intense. My only complaint is that it was too long – started strong and then could have ended just as strong if it didn’t get… Read More

Our Favorite BBQ Meal for National Sunday Supper Day

January 9, 2022January 11, 2022

Sunday Supper is one of my most protected things we do as a family. I love to cook for my people, and that has become a bit of a love language as they have gotten older. If we aren’t out of town, we enjoy our Sunday supper together no matter what. Sometimes we have extra… Read More

What We’re Watching {Return to Hogwarts}

January 7, 2022January 9, 2022

Around here, we are HUGE Harry Potter fans! As you can imagine, we were beyond excited to settle into the den and watch Return to Hogwarts last week. It was a little surreal to realize this was a 20th anniversary special. Honey and I told the boys stories of waiting for hours in lines at… Read More

Around Atlanta {Rumi’s Kitchen}

January 6, 2022January 7, 2022

Honey’s top choice for business dinners is always Rumi’s Kitchen (two locations in Atlanta). He comes home every time talking about how amazing it is. Well, I finally got to try it and…. drumroll please…. it absolutely lived up to my high expectations!!! Honey, Whit and I celebrated our New Year’s Eve with this table… Read More

Being Catholic {St. Simeon’s Feast Day}

January 5, 2022January 7, 2022

When we were learning about John’s patron saint, Simeon, during his confirmation preparation, we decided that we would celebrate his feast day at home each year. This wasn’t something I did growing up, but we love to eat, we love to celebrate, and I thought it would be a nice way to “remember” our patron… Read More

Wildcat HOCO 2026! 💙💛 Whit decided about 30 minut Wildcat HOCO 2026! 💙💛

Whit decided about 30 minutes before everyone was meeting for pictures that he was going after all! A quick scramble through three boys’ closets produced a suit, and off he went. No haircut, no tie, no problem! Haha!

These lasts are coming fast, and I’m trying to soak up every one!

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!
