Tidbits and Meet and Tweet!

Tuscan Italian Pasta Salad

I love when mistakes turn out to be a fantastic surprise!  The other weekend, we invited some friends over for a late afternoon BBQ.  Of course, in my last minute style, I raced to Trader Joe’s that morning after church to grab the necessary ingredients for an Italian pasta salad.  I have never tried the […]

Friday Favorites

We are starting to think about getting Maggie “big girl” furniture. Our plan is to create a room for both girls & when Alex is ready she will move in. Then, the nursery will be a nursery for another baby (maybe!) or it will become a guest room for a little while. I started to […]
