The subtitle of this post is: Family Drama in the Family Room … Andy and I Disagree About a Rug I’m having a crisis when it comes to our family room/playroom. Have you ever had a space in your house that just will not come together? That’s...
I’ve never been much of a cook. I’ll just admit it. Before I met Andy, I mostly ate white minute rice for dinner every night. It’s like cooking because I had to boil water… Right? The thought of having to wait more than five minutes...

We went to California over the weekend to celebrate our friend PJ’s surprise 30th birthday party in Huntington Beach. After a super fun weekend filled with ice skating, bowling (I actually won a game!), and tons of homemade poutine(!), Andy and I rented a car...
