One of the most difficult things I find about blogging is naming each post. I wonder if other bloggers struggle with this as well? We are well into the new year at this point and I am finding myself struggling with the fact that it is a new year. 2018 passed like a flash and… Continue reading The Whole House
Please forgive the composition of this post, my brain is having trouble formulating proper sentence structure and words. I have deemed it holiday brain. I did not want holiday brain to prevent me from sharing this latest project though, because it is actually time/ season appropriate! A few months ago, David and I sat down… Continue reading Holiday Brain
I last left you with a large hole in my ceiling being covered by poster board. It may have taken a while (3 attempts, but who’s counting) but I am happy to report that I am writing this post sans poster board. After A LOT of discussion of how we wanted to close our new… Continue reading Closure

Hi, It’s been a long time, I shouldn’t have left you. 90’s music reference anyone? Anyone? That song may or may not have been my jam at one point in my life. Anyway… Life has been very full since we last chatted, hence my hiatus. That fullness has been a mix of a whole lot… Continue reading Project- Home
This post is a mixture of heartbreak, awe, gratitude, and pride. This past weekend my hometown and state were devastated by massive flooding. South Louisiana is underwater and the news is not covering it. I have out of state family that was not even aware of the crisis situation that southern Louisiana currently finds itself… Continue reading The Louisiana Flood of 2016
