November Around The Web

November is all about family and the kickoff to the holiday season and this year was no exception! We started the month celebrating our friends Sydney and Salvador’s marriage, followed the next weekend with a quick trip to Houston to celebrate Rajab and Shaza, I saw Grace preform in The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, Holiday Mart transition meetings took place, I got my Covid-19 booster and we celebrated Thanksgiving with both our families!

Grateful for you!

October Around The Web

October is coming to a close — we started the month at another wedding celebrating our friends Jon and Emily, our dining room table finally arrived after being restored, I had a few fun happy hours with work friends (Cafe Trio in KC always decorates for Halloween!), we celebrated my sister Sophie’s birthday with Indian food, we attended a baby shower for Dale’s co-workers, went to a Louisburg football game with Laura & Ashton, spent a weekend at Turkey Hill for Oktoberfest, wrapped up Holiday Mart 2021 with a happy hour, had dinner with Brandon &Sonya and Megan & Matt/Mary & Kam around Dale’s birthday, and then headed to Nashville for Dale’s 30th! Looking back we were able to see so many friends and family which made the month fly by!

August Around The Web

August was a bit more relaxed as Summer starts to wind down. At the beginning of the month I settled back into my work from home routine after coming home from Utah, we spent time with our nephews and celebrated Mike’s birthday, Dale and I worked on planning our Europe trip with Sophie and Alex, we spent as much time as possible at the pool, I went to an outdoor Fusion pop-up class, the Smith family visited the Auschwitz exhibit at Union Station, Holiday Mart planning got busier as the show approached, Dale and I attended a couple’s shower for Laura and Ashton, and we spent a weekend hanging out with our high school friends Syd and Sal!

  • Around the web this month this propagation wall tutorial caught my eye because our fiddle is nearing the ceiling! Not sure if I will be brave enough to propagate, but saving just in case!

  • Another fun DIY I discovered was this checkered bowl!

  • Always on the lookout for pasta recipes!

  • I keep coming back to this belt bag…

  • Someday I would love to stay at the Ludlow in NYC!

  • Matte balloons seem to be trending at the moment.

  • The most exciting news of the month is that I signed up for Nuuly! I can’t wait for my first box to arrive in early September!

Soak up the end of summer!

February Around The Web

What a month! Every year I count down the days until Valentine’s Day and my birthday as a bright spot in the coldest part of the year. And this year my birthday was absolutely freezing! We celebrated with Lidia’s pasta (a birthday tradition) and my mom made me chocolate ganache cake! Dale also surprised me with a Smeg electric kettle to go along with my Christmas toaster and I’m obsessed with my first pair of Lake Pajamas from my parents.

This month I also got to Facetime and see a few close girlfriends, we watched the Superbowl with Sophie and Alex, and I took part in a virtual Escape Room for my cousin Liesel’s birthday. Thankfully the last few days of the month really warmed up and we were able to get outside and have some fiends over to hang out on our deck. We are also busy planning Sophie’s wedding! In my researching I stumbled across this stunning Baby’s Breath arch!! Here are a few more finds around the web this month:
