We have fun friends. Namely, they know how to find fun that is both kid and adult friendly. Balance, people. It's all about balance. And really, any fun that is to be had after 6PM - especially in the summer - should start with WIN and end with an E. #winwithanE #thatswhatI'msaying
So this past Thursday, we took the kids on a sunset...
We received a reader question about airport style recently. Specifically, airport style that is comfortable, yet chic enough to go straight from the airport to a party. Oh and nursing friendly, thankyouverymuch. Here's what reader M wrote:
I need an outfit that will survive: nursing, running to the airport, flying (Hello gorgeous naptime, it's been awhile!), lunch, baby shower, pumping, and...
One of the highlights of our trip this summer was taking Raines (age 8) and Pax (age 5) to Normandy. Our oldest is the type who tends to...focus on one topic, and for the last two years his focus has primarily been on World War 2. We've watched countless documentaries, The Longest Day six times, visited battleships, war museums,...
Summer! Traveling! Fun! Three year old meltdowns!
This has been our summer so far: fun and 3 year old drama. While I cannot promise this amazing little ride-on suitcase will get rid of the drama, I can attest to the fact that it makes tromping through airports with kiddos way more fun. Follow me for all you ever needed to know about...
On our way to Normandy, we swung by to visit Mont St. Michel. Mont St. Michel is a medieval monastery (seriously - over a thousand years ago) that was built upon an island in the bay where Normandy and Brittany meet.
The scope of Mont St. Michel - in both age and sheer physical size - is hard to comprehend. It's...
Visiting Portland this summer? Ooh, I hope so! Our beloved city does fill up quite a bit in summer months because it's a great time to explore here (ie. no rain). Today it's in the 60's and rainy, again, but soon...soon it will be sunny just about every day for a few months. I've rounded up not only my...
TME reader, Karen reached out to us on Facebook with the following dilemma:
"In the spirit of 'inspired by' posts I've seen over the last few weeks, I thought I would submit and ask if you would consider whipping up some suggestions. A few friends and I are meeting in NYC for 4 nights (5 days) of kid-free girl bonding....
And sometimes...you get to eat ice cream on the job!
This hot hot day in Portland we decided to go to what would become my new favorite ice cream shop. At the suggestion of my friend and insanely talented photographer, Posy Quarterman, we headed over to Fifty Licks for a fun afternoon of delicious treats.
The Outfit Formula
Ok, so in the interest of...
My first army jacket was bought ten years ago in a Parisian flea market. (Stay with me here - I realize that's one heck of a pretentious opener .) I felt so very worldly, as I strolled through le marche, jacket casually tossed over my arm. Ou est la cafe, Monsieur? Ah, bien. Merci.
The reality, however, is that the...
Ireland...oh, dear Melissa who wrote in asking what to pack for your trip there - I am so jealous. I adore that country so. Pinky and I honeymooned in Ireland and Scotland and fell completely in love with both countries. I'm longing to return. I truly believe Ireland has the nicest people in the world. We met an adorable couple...
