Have you ever tried cheese from Cowgirl Cremery in California? We’ve only recently been able to find it in Columbia and it is so awesomely delish. Santa stuck a wheel in my stocking this year! Yum! xo, Liz

Happy Holidays!
In case you weren’t on our mailing list for cards this year.. Hope you’ve been enjoying the holidays so far! Christmas was a crazy weekend for us. We traveled back and forth between my family (in Florence and Lamar) and Forrest’s family here in Columbia. It made for an eventful, fun celebration! And a lot of …

Happy Friday! Today I’m feeling like a serious homebody. So I started a potato soup in the crock pot. And I’m doing some last minute crafting and gift wrapping this afternoon. White Christmas is on tv and it’s got me dreaming of cooler weather (also tap shoes and dancing with Bing). The high today here …
outings
It’s Christmastime in the city. On Monday, my mother-in-law and sister-in-law allowed me to join them on a shopping trip to Charleston. It was funsies. I love looking in all of the fancy stores. So many inspiring things! We shopped around King Street, enjoyed an excellent lunch, grabbed coffee and treats at Bake House (formerly …
hip, hip, hooray for christmas vacation!
This was our first wrapped Christmas gift. Coincidentally, it’s also the first Christmas gift that Hemingway ripped into. She is kind of an evil cat, but it really was an accident. The box has an opening and her foot went right through the paper. Still, she shouldn’t have been standing on Daddy Marty’s gift. Since …
time flies
Four years ago, we celebrated our first Christmas with Hemingway. She was so tiny! No, I’m not sure why those glass ornaments are in a bowl on the floor next to a recently-brought-indoors feral kitten. Who knows. Today I have my fingers crossed for calm students and a fast-paced couple of school days! <3, Liz
wrap it up, already.
It’s catch-up time! Here’s an annotated version of the past two weeks. I finally finished that wreath that got started last year. Also, the rest of Christmas is mostly set up at our house. Except the snowmen. They’re all just kind of in a huddle. We stayed Thanksgiving evening at my parent’s house. Everyone in …
who let the cats out?
It’s important to me that we make Christmas cards every year. We usually keep it simple, but it is just so much more sweet and personal to have a card that someone made by hand. This year, Fitz and Hemingway are the stars of our card. So we set up a photo shoot. It’s not …
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
The decorations are out in full force! It won’t be long until Liz has transformed our home into a winter wonderland. I do my part by moving boxes, helping with the tree, and bringing home snowman doughnuts! We made a short video of us putting up the tree this year. Perhaps if we have time …

Turkey Day!
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! In keeping with our tradition, we made a list on the chalkboard wall of things to be thankful for this year. It includes (but is not limited to) our families, the cats, barbecue, and the fact that the cats didn’t knock down the Christmas tree overnight. Forrest rustled up these photos of …
