The Organized Junk Drawer

January 7, 2020 by Chris

There you have it, ladies and gentlemen. The classic oxymoron. “But Just a Girl, how can you have both?” you ask. I’ll tell you how. You buy a super sweet organizer, and you call your kids in for a family meeting. You tell them that anyone who messes it up will be grounded (a month or a year works best). Then--and here’s the important part--you actually follow through on that threat. But let’s … [Read more...]

Hosting a Cookie Decorating Party

December 13, 2019 by Chris

cute hot cocoa bar

Christmas Tree Shopping

December 3, 2019 by Chris

Michigan winter

It's that time of year! Christmas tree shopping in Michigan is in full force! We had such a gorgeous day when we went this year, that I thought it might be nice to show you our afternoon. Our tree farm is adorably primitive. You grab some hot cocoa and snacks in this little hut, find your tree, and cut it down. The end. I now want to own a Christmas tree farm. :) We have our share of … [Read more...]
