we are having the most out of the ordinary, super snow-filled winter in central virginia. breaking records for most days with snow on the ground and having to call in extra plows from nearby states. (at least, i overheard that... Continue reading

i would LOVE to swap with you for a week or a month! how amazing would that be!!! your boys would certainly get a nice taste of snow here right now. they are calling for another 20-30 inches on top of the 8 or so that is out there right now. NUTS!

just for a moment

i am going to pretend that i'm somewhere sunny. with the sound of sea birds in the air. where i can go for leisurely walks in my salt water sandals. and let the ocean breeze move across my slightly sunburned... Continue reading

alex- i was going to say the same thing. i love how diplomatic matty was with his little offering. and yes, the fact that he didn't recognize any of those famous faces. HA! that's my feller!

i need your vote

time for me to cut my shaggy head of hair. so the question is: go short with a cute bob? definitely a more polished look- probably more maintenance than i think? my hair isn't naturally straight, after all. but short... Continue reading

fork union! how funny! glad you found me. so basically- i hit up tons of spots in the charlottesville/harrisonburg/ruckersville/waynesboro/staunton/stuarts draft vicinity. i don't know if i have any real secret spots- mostly i just go A WHOLE LOT. about 5 days a week... that's probably why i have such good luck? charlottesville has a couple goodwills that are ok- i actually think they are a little bit on the overpicked side and messy. but that doesn't mean i haven't found some gems! of course there are loads of non-thrift but more vintage shop places too... if you just WANT something great and don't have the time + energy to put into the hunt... antics which is downtown, and gladrags would be two places that i'd highly recommend for a SURE SPOT to find something super cute- gladrags is all clothing + Accessories, antics has LOADS of clothing but also tons and tons of housewares... happy thrifting!

aren't they!?!? they set me back a whopping .99 gotta love that!

isn't that funny! i love how it just sort of *happens* that way... i never go looking for anything in a specific color family, that's for sure... there are certain items that i collect that i'm always on the hunt for- but not just cause they're pink or red or green! i like the way everything looks though, when it's all in a similar color story. like it's meant to be together or something!! and yes, the little owl is a bank!
