Thanks to the wonder that is Facebook, I’ve now learned that February 18 is National Wine Drinking Day. If you ask me, whoever created this holiday was just looking for an extra excuse to say “cheers,” to which I say…genius. What better day to share the last details of our girl’s trip to Napa?

Wining + Dining: Napa Girl’s Trip Part III
We’ve had ourselves a busy weekend so far! Yesterday Bobby and I participated in our first Habitat for Humanity build. Having had no previous experience with construction, I was actually pretty happy with what I was able to contribute! Both me and my Bob the Builder, that is. 😉 It was really cool to learn […]
Wining + Dining: Napa Girl’s Trip Part II

We had a low-key Valentine’s Day celebration last night that featured beer and burgers followed by champagne and Downton Abbey, because we are classy while watching such a show, of course.

The bridal bonanza weekend began on […]
Mama Bender’s Beef Stroganoff
The Packers may have lost this weekend (sigh), but there were several “wins” to even things out. Bobby and I had a wonderful time with our neighbors on Friday night, who we invited over for a Humble Pie and game night. Our conversation won out over the game playing most of the time, but I […]
STL + FnB
It’s hard to believe that Christmas is one week away. My heart has certainly been reminded of the true meaning of the season and the importance of telling family and friends how much I love them. It is simultaneously broken and hurting for all of the families affected by the horrific event that transpired in […]
Pinterest Partying
In the words of S Club 7, there ain’t no party like a Pinterest party. As I’m sure many of you know, Pinterest is addicting. You can go through pictures for hours and pin hundreds of recipes and DIY projects that you’ll never make, dozens of clothing items that you’ll never buy, and a few […]
