This is my Camino. Welcome.
I've been thinking about things and mulling over some of my go-to prayers and stories and saints as I move forward in my life a bit. (Hopefully. God, please, let's be moving forward?) This prayer is one of my favorites, ascribed to St. Brendan the Navigator, a man who lived in Ireland from 484-577. As... Continue Reading →
What's my word-of-the-month? Yes, you're right, juxtaposition. Aaaaand, I totally already wore an almost-identical outfit once this month. But, hey, I loved it and it's going again. The juxtaposition here is twofold. First: blue and red. Second: leopard and plaid. Yes. I love me some plaid skirts, harkening back to the Catholic schools I never... Continue Reading →
I owed you this on Monday. I know, I know. Here is where I was Friday morning: Here is where I was Friday evening: SUCCESS. Shout out to the generous and fun-loving Sugardale for the crinoline pattern. It was fun and full of helpful ideas and truly a work of love/ art. (Although, love, you... Continue Reading →

The most vivid of memories was that I somehow felt like Kathryn should be involved in a... Continue Reading →
When Josh was four or five he wandered to the athletic fields which border our yard and he found a dad striping the fields in preparation for the upcoming athletic season, and the dad had his son with him as well. The son was four or five, like Josh. And they played together for a... Continue Reading →
Important video to start this conversation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aSq1cez_flQ YOU'VE BEEN ASKED. And by two of the cutest cats around, I might add. And one had a ukelele. I care about you guys, is what I'm saying. Anyway, the question that remains is: WHAT ARE YOU DOING NEW YEAR'S EVE? Things I printed today: Registration form. On... Continue Reading →
Literally the most hipster outfit. I visited Lauren this weekend and she said they don't really have a huge hipster population just yet. Well, hipsters are strongly settled in Detroit. And, truth to be told, I think hipsters are darling. The jumper makes this outfit, I bought it a few weeks back at a rummage... Continue Reading →
Remember that I went away for the weekend? To Indiana? Here are some photos, kidlets! I was visiting my friend Lauren for the weekend. I met Lauren maybe in third grade? Fourth grade?
