A Shining Shimmering Splendid New Years Table

January 4, 2025January 2, 2025

I mentioned the other day how I debated a disco ball purchase for a whole year. I try reaaaaaaally hard not to buy things I’ll eventually discard and a disco ball certainly seems to fit the bill. After sitting in my amazon cart since December 2023, I finally caved. They were the centerpiece of my… Read More

A Few Touches to Welcome 2025

January 3, 2025January 2, 2025

I don’t “decorate” for the new year. Let’s face it – just undecorating from Christmas is more than enough! That said, I did have fun with a post-Christmas vignette in the kitchen. The banner is Birthday Butler and couldn’t be easier to add a huge punch of festivity with literally no effort. You just need to… Read More

Hello, 2025!

January 2, 2025January 2, 2025

After a day of football and lounging, we enjoyed our 22nd annual New Years Day meal! After considering the purchase all year, I finally bought two disco balls. I sat them on the credenza in my office and just love the light they reflect all over the room. They will live on the dining table… Read More

New Years Eve Dessert Platter

January 1, 2025January 2, 2025

I put together an easy and delicious dessert platter to enjoy on New Year’s Eve. I presumed after our sit down dinner that the group wouldn’t want to have to regather around the tables for a plated dessert. This worked perfectly! I used the clock attachment on a round platter >> Browse the Happy Everything!… Read More

A Farewell to 2024

December 31, 2024January 2, 2025

We spent the final hours of 2024 with friends at the loveliest little celebration. We enjoyed a divine meal gathered around a beautiful table with precious people. Adults in the dining room and kids in the kitchen! Dessert was served around 10 PM… The kids went wild with sparklers…. …. and cracked open a pinata… Read More

Champagne Strawberries

January 11, 2024January 11, 2024

I made the easiest treat for New Years Eve and know it will be one I do time and again! I’ve already made myself a note to make a few for Valentine’s Day. They are even easier than chocolate dipped. In a large bowl, I soaked fresh, clean strawberries overnight in champagne. I bought the… Read More

Once I decided to have a party, the vision came to Once I decided to have a party, the vision came together quickly. I fell in love with a bottle of Chloe wine with a black bow standing in the aisle at Publix in Savannah… and the rest was history.

While pink would have been the obvious choice for me, I loved the idea of something more classic. Black and white, bows and a few (okay, a lot) monograms woven in.

I wanted everything to feel pulled together but still warm. The kind of space where you walk in and immediately feel like you’re somewhere special.

Every ribbon, every layer, every little detail… it all added up to exactly the feeling I was hoping for 

Y’all come on in… 🖤🤍

I have so much to share from my 50th birthday part I have so much to share from my 50th birthday party. It was such a magical evening, and there are so many details to share and moments to convey that I’ve had to really think about where to even begin. So we’ll start here.

I went back and forth for a long time on whether or not to even have a party. Party planning is no small undertaking. But then again… I celebrate everything. And I knew I would be sad if this milestone year came and went without marking it in a meaningful way.

With a little encouragement from Honey, it was a go.

And once I decided, I knew exactly what I wanted. A celebration at our home, filled with the people who have shaped my life. I wanted the whole night to feel like me. And I wanted my guests to feel like they belong the moment they walk in. A night where conversations linger, and where you can look around and think… this is everything.

I’ll be sharing it all, but the beginning felt like the only place to start. 🖤🤍
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. 🥂
