Decorating with Pitchers
There are some things in this world that just don’t make a lot of sense.
My affinity for pitchers is one of them.
I should correct myself and say that to me, my love for them makes perfect sense. They’re cute and functional. And they’re cute. (I know I repeated myself, but it’s worth repeating.) Beyond that, I’m not really sure why they make my heart go pitter-pat. They just do.
I don’t really discriminate, I like them in colors or just plain white. I also like glass pitchers. They can be old or new. It really doesn’t matter. When I see a cute one, I would like to bring it home to live with me. And, trust me, I’ve left more pitchers at the store than I have purchased simply because there is only so much room. And money.
Some people think pitchers are just for holding drinks, but I think they can be so much more. I have my small collection scattered about my house and I use them in many ways.

A Little Grace
Happy Belated Mother’s Day to all you moms! I hope you had a wonderful day.
I spent the day resting and relaxing — it was just what I needed. My sweet daughter served me breakfast and gave me a book and a poem she made just for me.
My son no longer makes me home-made gifts now that he’s in middle school, but he still gives me great hugs and tells me he loves me so I can’t ask for more than that. Plus, flowers. They know how much I love flowers, so this bunch of hydrangeas makes me happy. (more…)

It was a room that served many purposes — an exercise space, craft storage and blogging/homework area. (more…)

It’s All About Good Hair
When my husband and I learned we were expecting a girl 10 years ago, we were both excited. We already had a healthy son and the prospect of adding some pink to our household was the icing on the cake.
What I didn’t realize way back then was that having a girl in our midst would bring more than just a few tea parties, dress-up clothes and all things girly. It meant that I would have to learn how to do hair.
Of course, I’ve been doing my own hair for years. I have curled, flat-ironed, and held a hair dryer across these locks for more hours than I care to think about. But, the kind of hair I would be doing for my daughter never even crossed my mind.
The hairstyle I did today for my daughter was relatively simple.
