Linen Loungers-P4P
I didn't realize this until the weather finally started to warm up, but apparently I love wearing the same style of casual shorts.

Lil’ Firecracker
Well, we had a wonderful time celebrating the 4th of July this year. We were able to spend five amazing days at my in-law's lake cabin filled with all kinds of friends and family.

However, Made for Mermaids just released an entire family collection of patterns, making sure that even the boys can … Continue reading Matchy- Matchy
Oh-La-La… More Big Changes!
Well, apparently my goal is to see how many changes I can make to my life at once! I have recently made another big step (yeah, taking a leave of absence from my job is still the front-runner, but this is another big one!). I have officially signed up to be a Senegence Distributor.
