Madeline & Max LOVE to (sneek) and take pictures with my camera. I often download my pictures only to find at least 10 extra ones on there that I had no idea about. But I have to say this picture that I downloaded a few days ago has been the most random. Apparently they made a banana wagon...hmmm....I am a little disturbed though...

I love this purse. It's handmade but looks a little different from the typical handmade bag or purse. This is from Melly & Me, they make wonderful things and sell their patterns for around $12. I have a couple of their patterns for stuffed animals, but I have yet to find the time to sit down and try to make them. I am...

I just bought these images off a boutique I love on etsy called Land of Enchantment. I just love the victorian/vintage images they have. I don't know yet what I will do with them, I'm thinking of using them for my Valentine cards or making a banner with them. Hmmm, we shall see. ...

If I ever move to London (why not?) I think I would just have to buy this shower curtain of the London Subway system. I wish they had one for Paris. If they did, I would buy one just so I could take a trip down memory lane whenever I took a bath. ;) I still remember riding the red line toward Le...

Listen to this song from Vampire Weekend called "Horchata". I was listening to it on the way home from the store and I swear my surrounding changed from brown-yucky-muddy snow to dancing in some exotic location...I don't really know where, just some place happy and fun. ...

I have recently read two blogs of girls I know (Liz & Susan) and they both had links and talked about this event called alt. Well, I was curious so I went to the site and found an array of hip bloggers and fashion forward Utahs. I was very impressed as I browsed the various people's blogs and websites, then I got a...

What is it about these dresses from FairyWonderful that makes me want to buy one for Madeline and just sit back and watch her twirl in a sea of tulle? I don't consider myself very froo-froo or overly girlie, but there is something so indulgent about these dresses and if you can't wear yards of tulle when you are little when can you...

These yummy candles on etsy look good enough to eat, I mean really...how are people so creative? I love this idea for V-day and just may be sending some out to the gals in my family. ...

Max is a big guy, 4' 4" tall and around a 100 pounds. Well, I feared that (ironically enough) he would be bullied in school, and somehow I knew in my mind that it would be by the smallest kid in his class... Today it happened. He came home with a bloody nose saying that ____ (will remain nameless) punched him in the...

We got our paint for the dining room. My mother-in-law bought me an absolutely gorgeous painting for Christmas and we decided to decorate our Dining Room around it. We love Restoration Hardware colors and so we stopped by to look at some options. To our delight they were having a sale on their paints. We bought a pink petal colored paint for Mimi's...
