Happy Monday! This weekend was a whirlwind. We woke up to snow on Friday morning and ended the weekend with 60 degree weather and blue skies with sunshine. It was perfect. I finally feel like spring is in the air. Speaking of spring, Easter is THIS weekend. What?! I finally made my first set of [...]
This is truly the wreath that keeps on giving! And I promise, this is the last time you’ll be seeing a variation of this twig wreath. I just couldn’t help myself. Yesterday I showed you the new Wood Welcome Sign for my winter front porch and today I”m giving you a peek at my winter [...]
Wow what a year it has been for DDD. I don’t even know where to begin. It’s seems like yesterday I was just writing a recap for 2011 and thinking about what would be in store for 2012. The last 365 days of this blog have surpassed any expectations and it has been a pure joy [...]
I often use the phrase, “If it wasn’t for the last minute, I wouldn’t get anything done”. Do matter how hard I try, I am ALWAYS working up until the very last second. I think it’s because I just keep adding more things to my to-do list, or may be I just try and justify [...]

For the past two days I have been busy ‘trying’ to decorate our house for Christmas! You see, I decided it would be fun to just ‘add some red’ to our holiday decor. I thought it would be easy enough to just throw a few red ornaments on the tree and call it good, but [...]
From the time I was born up until I left for college, my mom would give each of us (I have two brothers) one of those paper advent calendars with the pretty Christmas scenes on them and filled with chocolates. You know what I’m talking about, right? I even think she let us eat the [...]
Halloween is creeping up (no pun intended) and I’m trying to get everything all set for Miss E. Last year, she was only 7 months old so this will be her first year actually going trick-or-treating and going to parties. I still haven’t figured out what she is going to be (apparently not a peacock [...]
