A few months ago, Amy from Running Press reached out to me with an offer to review a new book being released from their press. From the moment the email came across my desk, I knew this was something I was super interested in.

Baby’s first Library
Spring brings may rains and baby showers. If you are of the age, your mailbox is probably full of invitations. But what to get? Well the first choice should always be the registry. I love registries.

LOVED it and we made an agreement that if I got to paint the kitchen cabinets, then I… Continue reading Dining Room Redo

Pinterest Challenge 1-ish
If you are wondering “hey Anna, what happened to the Pinterest challenge?” Well, yeah, pin-fail more like it. The first week I tried a nail polish thing. I messed it up so badly, I was embarrassed to post it. The second time, I was like “I will learn from my mistakes.” I am never allowed… Continue reading Pinterest Challenge 1-ish
