From Ampa with Love

August 21, 2015August 23, 2015

Today is Daddy-O’s birthday and we are wishing him a wonderful day!  I want to take a minute to share two stories with y’all. As I’ve written about ad nauseam, it’s been a rough couple of weeks around here (but that’s turned around).   Well, Mother was scheduled to return to Savannah this Tuesday evening (after… Read More

Forever Gifts {2014}

January 5, 2015July 31, 2015

As usual, I’m waaaaay behind on sharing what the littles received for their “forever” birthday gifts this year.  With both of them celebrating birthdays in the month before Christmas, rather than toys we give them each one nice item that we hope they will have forever.   To celebrate nine and six, we gave them… Read More

As y’all might recall, with both boys celebrating birthdays in the month before Christmas we forgo the mess of toys and give them one nice item on their birthday that we hope they will have forever.  They have received house portraits, John Derian plates, mini oil paintings, sterling silver baby cutlery, professional portraits, Sugarboo Frames… Read More

I Love {House Portraits}

January 7, 2013July 28, 2015

Since the boys both celebrate birthdays within a month of Christmas, each year on their birthday we give them one, nice item that we hope they will have forever.  This year’s gift is rather tardy, however I’ll be the first to admit that it’s not like they’ve been chomping at the bit to get their… Read More

One Day Early

December 12, 2011July 28, 2015

Cookie’s birthday is tomorrow, but since we had Mimi and Ampa in town and nobody had work or school to rush off to, we decided to start the celebrations early.  Let’s face it, the birthday boy doesn’t quite have a grasp on the ins and outs of the old calendar yet… He was thrilled to… Read More

Today I turn 50. I don’t know that I’ve done Today I turn 50.

I don’t know that I’ve done everything perfectly over the last five decades, but I do know this… I have no regrets. I raised the kids, loved the husband, got the dogs, took the trip, accepted the job, and showed up with my whole heart.

Friday night I celebrated with a house, yard and driveway full of friends and family at the party of my dreams. My parents helped pull it all together, and John rolled into town just in time to join the fun.

This morning started with coffee among the balloons and flowers, bagels from my favorite spot and some of  the people I love most.

Here’s to the years ahead. Good food, good wine, good friends, belly laughs, Taco Tuesdays and celebrations that don’t wait for an occasion.

Grateful for this life and everyone in it. Cheers to 50. 🥂

The Roses Are Red Bouquet mini attachment from @happyeverythingcc is the sweetest way to dress up my favorite pieces for Valentine’s Day - and honestly, it’s perfect far beyond February too. From Valentine’s Day to Derby parties, recital days and all those little moments worth celebrating, this one adds just the right pop of happy.

This year, we’re hosting a monthly Cocktail Open House: one signature cocktail, come-as-you-are, stay as long (or as little) as you’d like.

Pop in and sip awhile.
And if this first night was any indication… we’re off to a very good start.
