[ 95/365 ] ..... Kathy E.

She’s been my hairdresser since I was 16 years old. Love her for her cheap prices and good work. I’ll never forget the peppermints she gave me on my wedding day. The stomach flu was cured, and I looked beautiful.

First Year Photo Book { Hello You Books }

I know, you're thinking "isn't Sean two and a half?" Yep, he is... so I'm a little behind. In all honesty I've had this printed for a while. It's gorgeous in hand. Trust me. Blurb does a fantastic job. But they recently came out with the option to share books online, so I'm taking it for a test drive below.

This is a HUGE 174 page photo book inspired by Paislee Press. Like her, I wanted to do something with all those random photos I took of Sean in his first year. There is very little journaling, only dates and descriptions. It's purely a photo book. And I love how it turned out.

Let me know what you think of it! And if you're wondering what to do with those gazillion snapshots you took of your little person in their first year, email me!


[ 94/365 ] ..... Dr. Lewis

My chiropractor. He’s gotten me out of a few rough spots with my back, and now keeps me pain free. Love hearing his thoughts on health, life, and politics. Sean was his smallest patient at only a few weeks old.

Today. Defined. Joy.












The sound of children's laughter floating through the yard. Fresh cut grass. The chill of a spring day. Bubbles. Flying on the swings. Cries from rough housing boo boos. Tube sliding it over and over again. Two and three at a time. Hot Dogs & Pizza. Little one falling asleep during dinner. Portillos chocolate cake. Singing happy birthday. A day to remember. Today. Joy.
Happy Birthday Mom! Love ya!

[ 93/365 ] ..... Aunt Susie

My favorite outlaw aunt. She’s been in my life as long as I can remember. Always there with a smile and a hug. She rarely lets life get in her way, but when it does she can nap anywhere, anytime.

[ 92/365 ] ..... Pete L.

A high school friend. Fun loving and always up for a good time. Spiked Slurpees were definitely his idea. Came out of the closet in college. Always kept in touch. His life was taken too early, and I miss him.

[ 91/365 ] ..... Grandpa G.

His name was Herb. And this summed him up. A hillbilly from Missouri. A grumpy old man who laughed uncomfortably when I hugged him. I remember him wearing his work shirt, sitting in his recliner, smoking cigarettes, watching Cubs games.
