The Art of Homemaking: On Choosing a Home

So over the past few weeks my husband and I have been agonizing over homes. And I mean agonizing. I think I have talked to every single builder in a 30 mile radius...and walked through every existing home for sale in the same area. My husband and I sit on our computers late into the night pouring over the floor plans, number of rooms, and yard size combinations that will fit into our budget. And our realtor is ready to pay US to buy a house. But it's a big decision.  It's where I ... View the Post

Fabric Shopping in Puerto Vallarta Mexico

At the end of last year my husband and I had one of those "numbered" anniversaries. We haven't done much to celebrate in the past and so we decided it was kind of a good excuse to save up and plan for a short get-away trip.  And if you know me in real life you would know that I love a good deal....so while we didn't have a specific destination planned (I was thinking it would be close but a warm vacation--it was in the winter) I ended up finding a GREAT deal on a 2 person trip to Mexico and ...

DIY Jogger Pants

I have been wanting to make these pants for awhile because my daughter is all about jogger pants lately.  We bought a pair in chambray in the early spring and she has worn them everywhere...mostly because they are so comfy and easy to pull on.  And then I realized---why haven't I been making these?! ...
