Madeline’s Baptism – Part 2 – The Ceremony
The pictures have arrived from Miss Madeline’s baptism, and I could not be more pleased!!!

Easy Ways To Organize Pots & Pans
Bradley and I purchased our house with the intention of quickly completely gutting our kitchen. However, we found out I was pregnant right around the purchasing time, which has changed our timeline a little bit! 🙂 We thought when we first moved in that we could just make due with the kitchen for a few […]
Entryway Progress…..
We are still desperately wanting a new front door, but we have been able to complete all of our other wish list items. When we first purchased our home, there was every type of floor imaginable. The entryway had a little bit of hardwood, followed by laminate, carpet and tile. My sweet husband actually moved […]
