Oh man, whatta weekend y’all! Friday, after much deliberation, we purchased a new (to us) vehicle! The Jeep was on it’s last leg, and we knew it was time. Thanks to all of you that weighed in on the van vs crossover debate on our Facebook page! We ended up driving home a 2006 Honda Odyssey, and I’m completely smitten with it. So roomy, so convenient… and there are no smashed Cheerio’s on the ... [ Read More ]

Hey! Its Meghan from Cupcakes with Sprinkles. I am always happy on the first Wednesday of the month cause I   I can't believe its already March. Spring is on its way! I'm sure you've seen rainbow Jell-O cups around. Its very simple, but looks dramatic and awesome. I recently threw 2 of my kids a rainbow themed birthday party, these were part of the treats. There are lots of fun other rainbow ... [ Read More ]

So we get to see a lot of kitchens and meet a lot of awesome people with our little backsplash business (S/E Backsplash), and it’s always so fun to see how other people decorate their homes while we’re there. We actually painted FOUR backsplashes this past weekend in the same neighborhood! (Which reminds me… if you want us to paint your backsplash and have several friends or neighbors that would ...

WARNING: nobody likes a post without pictures… and since it would be gross for me to photograph events that I’m about to discuss, I’ve found some fun topic-appropriate images to share for your enjoyment. via As you know, we potty-trained Paisley 8 days ago. She hasn’t worn a diaper since (except to bed). Seeing as she’s 19 months old, I know it’s pretty remarkable. And it would be easy (and ... [ Read More ]

So here’s the thing, right? Bloggers get a lot of flack for being ‘perfect put together mom’s’ with endless hours in a day and ‘camera-ready, magazine-worthy’ lives. (Photo by McClanahan Studio) Can we talk about that? I feel like I’m pretty real with you, and have been known to dish the dirty and show mountains of dirty laundry, or my train-wreckova craft room, (among MANY other things). But ... [ Read More ]

Oh man, do you ever just feel like you’ve been so productive and accomplished, and then realize at the end of the day that you can’t mark ANYTHING off your to-do list? MAJOR bummer. Sometimes life just happens, and we need to remember to high-five ourselves for putting pants on and just making it through the day unscathed. As I sit here, the mountain of unfolded laundry is winking at me and ... [ Read More ]

THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED We’ve been thinkin’ about how fun it would be to giveaway a piece of furniture here on the blog… but shipping a china cabinet just doesn’t seem logical. So let’s back up a bit… Based on a couple recent events (organizing the craft room and swearing off turquoise) I realized I had quite a bit of fabric that needed to find a new home. Of course you know that this is ... [ Read More ]

If you follow along on Facebook, you know that I wrote an entire post to share today, and then took note of it’s boringness and decided not to publish. Why you’re welcome! In it’s place, my fellow twin mama Crystal suggested that I give an account of our experience with Paisley’s Pneumonia and our run-in with the ER on Friday night. It went something like this: It was evening. Nick was at work. ... [ Read More ]

Below are some of our mostfavoritest projects. (You’ll see in a second why it’s black and white…) I pride myself on thinking outside the box and not being trendy. And when Allison from House of Hepworths asked me to choose a handful of my favorite projects for my guest post, I realized just how many projects we’ve done have been from the turquoise/teal/aqua family… you get it. I made a ... [ Read More ]
