a new take on business cards

January 30, 2012 Create

Good morning! How is your family fairing with the winter sicknesses?  Our little Ainsleigh and Annabelle have been hit hard with the flu, keeping me home from church and the likes. But on another note, I have something really exciting to share.  Let me introduce you to one of The Sleepy Time Gal’s sponsors, Moo. [...]

an (artsy) field journal

January 24, 2012 Art

I wish this were mine.  But like many of my kids’ creative projects, they are made for their friends.  (I’m happy this one was for a little friend named Will who just turned four.)

a family’s work

Happy new week to you!  We had our first real snow of the winter (except for that bizarre snow we received in October) this weekend.  It is amazing how life turns out because I got to be the one to take the four girls out and eat snow and shovel while Bobby was ill.  I [...]

arriving at functional spaces

January 9, 2012 Create

For the past week I’ve been building up momentum to totally change up my house.  I don’t know if it is the hole where the Christmas tree was or the new year or lack of enthusiasm with my house (and lack of functionality) right now, but it has become the obsession of the weekend.  I’ve [...]

our new horses

December 29, 2011 Create

Last night the house was still.  No entertaining, just clean up from the day.  I grabbed a few of the kids’ blankets that were strewn over the floor and got comfortable on the couch to enjoy a book.  Something I haven’t done for the past month. It feels satisfying and needful to take a small [...]
