Making Whoopie.... pies!

Until a few days ago, the word "whoopie" made my kiddos immediately think of the amazingly cool whoopie cushion they got in their stockings last Christmas.

For me, the song, "Making Whoopie" would always come to mind. I will not share any more.

Real Scones!

It was our turn to bring treats to the local MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) group, and someone in our group decided she had had enough egg bakes (me, too!) and suggested we pick a theme and bring items that were a little different. We decided to do an English tea. This was right up my alley, as you can see here.

Silhouettes

Do you know who this is?

That's right! Jane Austen! You know there are self-help groups out there for us nuts, right? For those of you who didn't know who this was, you'll be juuuust fine!

There's something elegant and sophisticated about a silhouette. They are so personal, individual, artistic, timeless...

Happy 100th birthday!

Happy birthday to you...

Circa 2006

Our house turned 100 this year. It took 2 years to build originally and was completed in 1910. I wanted to write a post about our house this year to commemorate the home and all of the work we put into it. Nothing like waiting till the last minute, eh? :)

My Christmas gift

I once took a photography class after college. I had fun but I didn't have the best camera. I knew that I could probably take better pictures if I just had the right camera.

Fast forward 8 years.
