Once again I am linking up with Gussy for her Inspiration Workshop.  Check out all the inspiration on her blog where many other awesome bloggers link their posts as well.  This week's prompt is "Organization."  My craft room is the focus of this post.  Even though my entire home is basically an opportunity for better organization (no, really) my craft room is the home of the most "stuff" and certainly a place that could use a little more organization.

Jason and I are a little obsessed with Lacrosse.  Not playing it (oh man, that would be comical) but watching it.  Last year we went to a bunch of games Minnesota Swarm, and this year we're season ticket holders.  That means all the home games, all season, we'll be there.  We are even taking a group of 13 people to the game this Sunday to celebrate Jason's Birthday!

I recently found out about an online craft night.  What?!? Are you thinking, "that's the coolest thing ever!" That was my reaction too!  You should join me.... all you have to do is grab some (very basic) materials and join in the online chat while we all make a sweet project. (more...)

Once again I am linking up with Gussy for her Inspiration Workshop.  Check out all the inspiration on her blog where many other awesome bloggers link their posts as well.  This week's prompt is "Bedroom."  I've actually been collecting inspiration for our Master Bedroom lately.  It's typically the last place to get attention whenever we move to a new place since no one usually sees it.  That doesn't mean that it shouldn't be pretty though. :) (more...)

Have you ever completed, or even just attempted, a 365 photo project?  The idea is that you take one photo a day, all year, for one year.  Some people take a photo of their child every day, or themselves, or they focus on one even more specific theme for the entire year.  I don't use a theme, but I do use just one method to capture every photo: my iPhone.

Welcome to another week of Instagram photos!  Our week started out with New Year's where we were in the middle of coming home from Vermont... driving home from Vermont actually.  Due to winter weather it took us 3 days, so on Sunday and part of Monday we were still on the road.  The rest of the week was spent at home and has included a lot of relaxing and catching up on sleep.

Every year for the past 4 years I've chosen a word for the year.  One word to focus on for the entire year that helps you achieve your goals. A word to help you keep your focus on those things that are most important to you.  This word can be in the place of traditional resolutions, or it can be to help enhance your resolutions.  (more...)

Happy New Year to all of you out there in Blogland!  I hope you had a great holiday and New Year and that you got some rest, some time with family, and maybe even some time to create some fun things.  Jason and I spent two weeks in Vermont with our families for the holidays, and just got back yesterday.  We drove the 1,500 miles home so that we could bring Everett with us.  What an adventure!  More on that later though... Today, I'm looking ahead to the new year and fun plans and projects for 2012. (more...)

Merry Christmas!  Since they are all sent out and my family has seen them, I thought I would share this year's Christmas card with my awesome readers. (more...)

Another week of Instagram photo goodness!  This week was full of crafting, cuddling, and fun.  That's kind of a perfect week, actually.  It would be great if every week were chock full of such fun things. (more...)
