Do you ever just need a night to party? A night with no “scrubs”? (Especially scrubs wearing hats, those are the worst kind (don’t worry about it, it’s an inside joke)). This past fall, the Utah sisters behind This Blue Dress were in desperate need of such a night. I (Tara), won 2 free tickets […]
One of my favorite family traditions was when we performed a nativity skit for my parents! Sometimes it was silly, and sometimes, it was VERY silly!

Or maybe you’re like me and are always on a mission to simplify your life. I’m constantly trying to balance my wanna-be minimalist desires with my love for all […]
I really don’t like rollercoasters. The amusement park kind or the hypothetical kind. I am so fine, happier even, being the “stuff holder” and waiting for everyone to enjoy their ride. That is my happy place. But you can’t be your own “stuff holder”. When your emotions are going nutso, who holds your stuff while […]
I’m literally getting giddy as I write this because old movies are one of my guilty pleasures. In addition to Disney movies, these are the films I grew up on!

It’s incredible to see a child’s joy over little things, like sprinkles on ice cream or pine cones.
