I guess I need to change my blog name. In November 2024, Tyler and I added a dog to our family. An English Cream Golden Retriever named Gryffin. Yes, we are millennials. Yes, he’s named after Gryffindor from Harry Potter- also yes he has the Gryffindor harness and all the Harry Potter Bark toys. It…
My mom and I visited my grandfather last weekend. It’s around a four to five hour drive for us both ways. Distance doesn’t matter when someone means so much. My Papa is 86 years young. He lives independently in the house he had built in the 80’s on a little less than three acres. He’s…
We moved into this house two years ago today. We also stupidly decided to host a Fourth of July party the next day for our families. With moving boxes everywhere and little sleep.

I’ve trained my body, but more importantly I accidentally trained the cats (it’s not that hard, we have four now) to wake up between five to six AM. This is great Monday through Friday, however, today is Saturday morning. I attempted to fall back asleep for two more hours until I gave up and gave…
“Lindsay’s back” said Samantha, my hair stylist of ten+ years as she was blow drying the bangs I’ve been trying to grow out for God knows how long… To be honest my relationship with her has lasted longer than most of my jobs, friendships, and every single romantic relationship. She knows more about me and…
“I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day, and I believe in miracles”- Audrey Hepburn Vintage has been a large part of my style since college. Wiggle dresses, swing dresses, wool skirt, sweaters, Malco Modes petticoats,…
