My three year old loves all things spooky, so a month or so ago, I bought some candy eyeballs so we could bake a Halloween treat. Our nanny had the day off, so this was it, except I was alone with both girls and needed an easy, no-bake treat, so …

I never thought we’d do costumes for the whole family, but becoming a parent changes you. There’s a 12′ skeleton outside my house, bats all over the entry and fireplace, hanging witch hats, and ghosts. My first Halloween as a mom, I waited until everything was sold out and dressed …

As sweet as my daughter’s first holiday season was, she was so little and not exactly into it. And Halloween has never really been my thing. You’ll never find me in a haunted house and it the only time I dressed up in my 30s was after I became a …

I am not one of those people who wants summer to end, and it’s way too early to think about black cats and spider webs. But the Halloween shops are live (annoying, I know) and the good stuff is going to sell out. My first year as a mom, I …

My four year old loves Halloween more than Christmas. I don’t really get it, but she’s very into spooky stuff, so Halloween is a big deal at our house. But I love themed pajamas, and Halloween pjs are the official opening to the holiday season. I like to break them …

Halloween was never my thing. Then I became a mom and went all out with decor and costumes for the whole family. Looking for the perfect Halloween costume is so much fun – and making magic for your kids is always a good idea. It’s so fun to dress up …

I don’t like scary movies and am not that big on chocolate (I know, I’m a gummy candy/red vines kinda gal), so Halloween was never my favorite holiday. But then I became a mom and love nothing more than making things fun and festive for my girls. I’m excited to …

  It’s officially fall and Halloween decor (and costumes) are selling out! I keep things simple yet festive. These halloween decorations are tasteful and spooky. And most important, fun for the kids. The last two years, I used paper bats but upgraded to felt this year and they’re look so …

We love kicking off the holidays with festive pajamas, and that starts with Halloween. I love seasonal and themed pajamas, and already ordered fall and Halloween pajamas for the girls. We have a little more than a week left of summer but some of these prints are starting to sell …

It happens during most big milestones and every holiday season. I made it through my wedding, becoming a mother not once but twice, and almost 800 days of my daughter’s cancer treatment without the support of parents of my own. So you’d think the holidays wouldn’t hit so hard, but …

We’re heading to California tomorrow! If you’ve been reading my blog, you know that I’m from LA, and I haven’t been since right before the pandemic started. I can’t believe our trip is finally here! That we’re able to travel. That we’re taking our girls to Disneyland! No, it’s not the …

It’s November! And Halloween is (finally) over! I couldn’t have been more ready to take everything down, and got it all put away this morning. The holiday season can officially begin! Although I’ve been posting gift guides for a week or two since I wanted to get everything ordered early.

There’s still some time until Christmas. It’s not even Halloween yet, but the holiday season is upon us. Once it’s time to decorate, I’d rather focus on making memories, and don’t wrap anything until the week of Christmas anyway. So here it is. My ultimate holiday gift guide with holiday …

I am back from a week in bed with a bad cold (and sinus infection). It was so strange spending that much time in bed, but I didn’t know what I had for a few days and didn’t want to get my family sick. This morning started with preschool drop-off …

It’s a new month and I’m back with some October tech backgrounds for your phone and desktop. I’m kind of over making these but love the holidays, so this was fun. i’ll probably make some for Christmas, too. The seasons changing always feels so special to me since that wasn’t …

Another month – a big trip, a new season, and some purchases for our home. I won’t be doing too much shopping for myself since I have lots of sweaters I haven’t really worn in years, and I definitely don’t need another coat. Here’s what I bought and loved this …

Well it took a minute to get back into my work groove but I am officially back. It feels like fall and halloween is in full swing at our house. And we’ve got some very spooky vibes happening at our front door. I really don’t know how to hold back …

After nearly two weeks in Italy, we made it back home and are slowly getting our lives together. I thought I’d dive right back into work but it’s been an adjustment. I thought it might help to write something on getting back into a routine post-vacation, to ease myself back …

We’re still really making the most of summer and have been going nonstop. It feels good! Lots of plans with old and new friends, trips to the pool, pickleball, and trying to get the house settled and organized for fall. Here’s a new weekend reading post: recent finds and what …

Life without treatment feels pretty incredible. Margot took her last dose two weeks ago, and I’m doing better than I imagined. We’re easing into normalcy – seeing friends, hanging out at the pool and dining out (although that’s always outdoors). And we’re trying to get things done at the house, …

I know I just posted about Halloween costumes, but I’m still holding on to summer. It’s not my fault the holidays get introduced so early and we’re forced to buy the good stuff before it’s gone. But long live summer. And blue and white forever. I put together what might …
