Holy cow, how is this little guy already TWO?! I had so much fun planning his birthday party this year and since he has such a love for all things cowboy, yee-haw and horses, coming up with a theme was a no brainer! I absolutely love doing this type of stuff, I have my entire life, but I also know it can be overwhelming, so I tried to be specific with details below if you wanted to recreate any portion on his party/theme. I will say, planning, having a toddler, getting ready for a move and being pregnant just about did a number on me, ha! I think I am good with the events for a little while. Where We...

15 things I’m loving about Corona Isolation

Our state is opening back up this week like a lot of others.  Restaurants and stores are open.  Salons are open.  Churches are making plans to open up.  We are for the most part still home.  I go to the store when I need to and we get outside but for the most part - we are staying home.  Scott can work from home and we are finishing up school soon.  I'm not planning to get back to normal any time soon.  And as much as it was hard the first few weeks,  I feel like we have hit our stride.  I miss a lot of things but there are a lot of things I'm loving right now during this...
