Happy Monday! It’s time for another week of Etsy Picks! I love shopping for clothes, but I also love looking for my kiddos, and Etsy always has a sea of vintage and handmade clothing to salivate over. Dresses are a particular favorite of mine, and…
This weekend has been quiet. The kids left on Friday evening to spend 2 nights with my sister and brother-in-law at their house about 25 minutes away. Tristan and I immediately skipped out the door to have our favorite dinner (middle eastern food – yum),…
I had coffee with my friend Chrystal today and it reminded me that I never shared these photos that I took of her son for his 1st birthday. And since he is one of the cutest kids I’ve ever met, I had no choice but…

Tristan and I celebrated our 11th anniversary last week, and we spent the past 2 days in downtown Denver sleeping, eating, shopping, and relaxing. The kids (and Tuppy) stayed at my parent’s house, which is always a good time for them as they get to…
