Big News: We are Moving and Adopting
Yes, you read that right. We are moving AND adopting. Ugh. Just writing the words "we are moving" up there makes my heart hurt. After four years and an insane amount of updating to this house, we are at the point of outgrowing our pretty little house. (side note: I know I haven't shared all of . . .

Modern Masters Front Door Paint
This past weekend, I attended the Haven Conference. It was fabulous... yadda, yadda, yadda. I'll post about it later - maybe.
