Every holiday the family and I head to PD‘s house for dinner… or brunch… or a BBQ… It all depends on the season… and how well prepared he is… And every holiday we make the same drink… Mint Kahlua Mudslides. And no, not the pre-made ones… we actually get a little fancy and mix these ones up…
Remember back in April when I finally got around to painting my stairway/landing? Well, the truth is, it sat bare for quite some time… It looked like this… One day, while over at PD‘s house, he mentions something so earth-shattering, I wondered why he waited so long to tell me… PD: So, I got a bunch of…

After reading Sister #1‘s post yesterday about her wedding stresses, I am starting to realize just how close it’s getting… {stay calm! stay calm Amanda do you hear me!?} This feels like the first wedding I have been in… but technically it would be my second… You see, once upon a time…. I was a…
