I’ve been trying to write my year in review post for a couple of days now. I keep dwelling on the negative, terrible things that happened in our world in 2016. It doesn’t help that George Michael and Carrie Fisher passed away this week adding to the list of icons from my childhood that are […]
I wanted to pop on today and wish everyone a very Merry Christmas. I’ll be away for a couple of days celebrating and enjoying time with my family, but I’ll be back later next week with a 2016 recap. Until then, be safe, have fun and enjoy your holiday! Love to you all!
I did this last year too, I thought it would be fun to write a letter to Santa from Ollie’s perspective. So here we go! Dear Santa, Hi! It’s Ollie! I know I came to see you a few weeks ago, but I wanted to write you a letter too. Because I was a little […]
As Buddy says in the movie Elf, “the fastest way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear.” I think Ollie and his classmates win the award for Christmas cheer.

I saw that Secondhands Fashion was having an amazing Black Friday deal – if you signed up for a shipment, you would recieve SIX items instead of just five and your choice of a coffee gift card or free accessory. Because i had some birthday money I decided to schedule a box. It arrived yesterday […]
It’s the last Currently post of the year, I can hardly believe it! It’s a hectic time of year for sure, but I couldn’t miss out on my favorite link up of the month. Here are some current happenings in our world! Cooking – It is COLD outside, so we’re making favorites like chili, spaghetti […]
Oliver is three! I can’t believe it. We had a wonderful time celebrating his birthday on Saturday. We headed down to Macy’s in Downtown Minneapolis to see the 8th Floor display and to visit Santa. I have honestly not seen that space so full and busy since I was a kid. Then again, it might […]
