I thought it might be a good idea to do a fast recap of our summer before Christmas, or next summer at the rate things are going. 😛 So here it is, our summer in a hot minute. //MAY// Summer kicked off with a Memorial Day camp out in Lexington, VA with my family. We… Continue reading Our Summer in a Hot Minute
This garden has been over a year in the making. We originally intended to get it started last summer right after we moved here. Well, last summer came and went and all we had done was read a book on gardening and buy some cinder blocks. Work and school got going and the garden dream… Continue reading Our Garden Experiment
This is post 7 of 7 for the 7 posts in 7 days challenge! It felt like I was scraping the bottom of the barrel for things to say sometimes (there's a reason I only post 4-6 times a month) but I think it was a good challenge. I did get 7 posts up in… Continue reading The Things That Make A House Our Home
Well, I'm scraping at the bottom of the barrel for post ideas today. Hopefully I don't regret attempting the 7 posts in 7 days challenge. I told Andy that I needed an idea for a post and we came up with the idea of sharing our favorite YouTube video. It is our go to when… Continue reading Our Family Favorite YouTube Video
PROLOGUE I returned to campus in the fall of 2008 a few days before Andy did (he hadn't realized that he loves helping with freshman move-in yet) and I have a distinct memory of being really excited to see him. There was just something about him. I'm not really sure what it was but I… Continue reading On Saltwater Crocodiles and Walks Home
So this installment of quotes just features Andy. I guess that's one of the luxuries of being the person who records the quotes... 😉 Andy: Good News! Sarah: What? Andy: I thought I had eaten all of the candy apple, but I realized that I dropped some of the candy coating on my pants! It's… Continue reading If Our Walls Could Talk
Saturday mornings tend to be a sacred time in our house. Andy and I both stay very busy during the week, but we try to be intentional to set aside some time for just us. Right now, our “us” time mostly happens on Saturdays. So our Saturdays typically go about like this (with exceptions for… Continue reading Homemade Bagels

One of my co-workers also has a photography business on the side and at the beginning of October he posted that he was going to run a fall mini-session special: $35 and you get 20 digital images with print release. It just seemed like too good of a deal to pass up, especially with Christmas… Continue reading 5 Favorites: Fall Photoshoot
Andy was on fall break for the first part of this week, so I took Monday off and we went to visit his family that lives outside of Louisville, a little less than 4 hours away from us. It was the first time we've left town since school started, so it was nice to get… Continue reading {P,H,F,R} Fall Break Edition
