One of my most recent favorite bloggers has got to be Ashley @ Little Miss Momma. She is so beautiful, talented, funny, and best of all…honest. She’s SO good at just putting it out there. She has admitted that she pees in front of her husband. Dare I say…don’t we all? 🙂 I want to…

Saying No to The Mom Uniform
The Obsession. I’ve recently become obsessed with fashion blogs like Clothed Much, The Sartorialist, & The Daybook and I read this one post about developing your own style. It. Was. Miraculous.  For the first time someone actually said out loud that it was okay to not like trendy. I have always kind of struggled with…
My Year in Statuses
Have you seen this yet? It’s a thing on Facebook, and I liked it. It’s basically all my Facebook status updates for the year all written together in one place. Makes me realize I need to have some better status updates. Remember, I was pregnant at the beginning of this year and had my baby…
Remember to love what you already have
I’m writing this post really quick from my iPod, but this is something I’ve been thinking a lot about lately and it goes along with the whole ‘gratitude’ theme this week. It’s so easy to think about what we don’t have and to find others who have it and be envious. I’ve always been envious…
Count Your Blessings!
It is the day of Giving Thanks. And I have a lot to be thankful for! I would like to share my list with you: The Amazing Hubcap Who chose to marry me! My babes Eternal Families (& my Faith) My amazing parents My exponentially growing family Good (future) job and hardworking husband That no…
Be a Listener!
I have a lot of personality…um…weaknesses, we’ll call them. And you know that one of my biggest ones is being a horrible listener. I’m always trying to remember to listen and ask questions instead of just talk talk talk. I went to a party recently where I was talking to lots of different people. But…
A Moment of Honesty
I need to have a little moment of honesty here… It’s easy to be upbeat on the internet. Or I should say to appear upbeat. All you have to do is add exclamation points!!! Yay!!!!! Do you think I’m upbeat? Did I convince you with that? 🙂 <– {{ADD SMILEY FACE FOR GOOD MEASURE}} Well,…
Tricks or Treats
I was reading this post, and it kind of sparked a question I’ve been thinking about the last few years. When I was younger I went trick-or-treating all the time by myself (with my friends or siblings…meaning, no parents.) I lived in Utah…in Happy Valley. It was very safe and my parents didn’t worry at…
My Downfall
I’m going admit something that I’m not proud of…but hey, every character in a story needs to have one great downfall. Here’s mine: I’m a terrible listener. It’s true! I very frequently listen to only about half of what people tell me. My mind just wanders so quickly and I just catch enough words to…
My Halloween
I love asking you questions, like what were you like in middle school? and what is your favorite autumn memory? I love getting to know you. I seriously love reading every single response. And to be fair, here’s my answer: I LOVED Halloween (still do.) I would get excited to carve pumpkins months before. I…
Creative Estates Blogging Conference
Oh, how I want to go. When I saw the CREATIVE ESTATES BLOGGING CONFERENCE was in Chandler, AZ, I was like “HOT DOG!!” Like I mentioned before, I’m pretty poor, so the fact that I wouldn’t have to pay for travel or lodging, um…awesome! And the chance that I could win a FREE PASS????? Yes,…
Diary of a Blogger: Chapter 1
I can’t decide if blogging makes me a little more crazy or a little more sane. Blogging can be very liberating but also very difficult. And what am I complaining about? I just blog about crafts and sewing. Well sometimes it’s hard to think of stuff! And sometimes it’s hard to put together a tutorial…
