appy Week! I don’t want to speak too soon, but hasn’t our weather been nice? It’s so wonderful to have this break from outer wear (I love winter but bundling up had its disadvantages!)

Pants for Dutch Boys
Hi! In second grade my teacher had the months, listed on cards, with corresponding decor above the chalk board. They were in grouped together in columns: Jan, Feb, March and then another column April, May June etc. To this day when thinking about the months I still see those cards above the chalkboard. So welcome … Continue reading Pants for Dutch Boys
Are we Cozy Yet

Winter Rocks
Hello Hello Hello! Many many moons ago I lived in Los Angeles. It was an interesting experience to say the least and maybe someday I’ll tell you all about it.
