Like most great family traditions, our Family Theme Halloween Costume tradition wasn’t really something we set out to do. When Burke and Pi were little, Burke would choose his costume, and then a costume for Piper to coordinate (he was a horse and she was his cowgirl, then he was a squid and she was […]

how to make sangria for a crowd
It’s wedding season (and bridal shower season, and summer backyard party season), and last month I ran across a recipe the that is helpful for all these parties and events- how to make Sangria for a crowd. We recently added a Sangria Bar to a backyard party, and this Sangria-for-a-crowd was a HUGE HIT (also- […]
how to make rifle paper inspired felt flowers
I love Rifle Paper Co., y’all. I love the Rifle Paper Co. FABRIC and their city prints and their gift wrap (and did I mention their fabric?). SWOON. I also love felt flowers (ok DIY flowers of all kinds, but I have a special place in my heart for flowers made out of fabric). I’m […]
the prettiest sangria bar
The first time we put together a Sangria Bar was YEARS ago (2013- I looked it up). And it was an instant hit, both by wedding guests that got to enjoy it, and also on the internet (whoa Pinterest takeover!). And even though we pretty much love all drink stations, the Sangria Bar remains one […]

blackberry rosemary sparkling lemonade
This might be my favorite time of the year- spring blooms, warmer weather, pool days reappearing on our schedule (WOOHOO!), and all of summer stretched out in front of us. We love to grill out year round, but when spring arrives, it seems like our grill use doubles, as does our dinner guest tally. I […]
DIY modern baby romper
Y’all. Last night I was scrolling through old pictures (ok, honestly, I was trying to delete enough to upload my latest pictures… I *might* have a photo hoarding problem). And I came across a bunch of teeny tiny baby Bohden-in-various-rompers-that-I-made-him-once-upon-a-time pictures. And my heart melted and exploded at the same time of cute and nostalgia […]
