life lately..

it passes so quickly! this is just a quick post to say, yes.. we're all still here, well & accounted for! ..and yes, it has been shamefully long since i've made any type of posting efforts.. but i fall asleep each night knowing that my family has been fed, laundered, scrubbed, shoed, chased, shoed again, cuddled & tucked safely in bed. :)

wanta trade?..

a sweet friend of mine is hosting a lovely jewelry exchange! (this is a snap of what i'm bringing.) have something you never wear? trade it for something you will! such a cute idea!
