I was searching Etsy for hand-carved stamps, as Ryan and I are looking into packaging ideas for Two Are Better, and I remembered how much I love stamps! They’re not the most practical thing, but they are oh so cute. I wish I could have a stamp collection – but what would I stamp? The [...]
Happy belated 2012 everyone! I’m making it one of my New Year’s Resolutions to blog on here more often. In the last several months, I have really been neglecting this little blog and I miss it. Time to get back on board in 2012! I’m going to start with my highlights of 2011. I did [...]
My highlight of 2011 was when Ryan asked me to marry him!!! On December 12th, I became his fiancée after almost 6 years together. :) It’s still surreal – partly because I haven’t been able to wear my ring yet! It’s now resized and waiting for us in Indiana. We also haven’t discussed any wedding [...]

You can expect lots of fun Christmas posts in the near future because I have lots of projects up my sleeve. :) I’m starting with my [...]
Ah, I hate that I’ve been out of the blogging loop lately. I miss it! I hope I’ll have more time now that I’m finished with the hard part of student teaching. Let’s start back with a fun DIY post about building terrariums, shall we?!
Fall is a busy time of year for photo shoots! One of my recent photo sessions was with Megan and Cody for their engagement photos. I actually went to high school with Megan, but this was my first time meeting her fiancé Cody. They are getting married next year around this same time of year [...]
Near the end of the summer, Ryan & I shot two promo videos for Lindsey Pantaleo. Lindsey is a local photographer from our hometown, who just relaunched a new website/brand for her photography business. She is 1) super talented & 2) super fun! Random fact: We actually were in Color Guard together in High School [...]
