Over the past few months, along with a few friends, we have been intentionally giving each other a weekly challenge. It's a simple challenge, one that pushes us to think outside of ourselves and consider others. It might be as simple as, "Offer to carry groceries for someone this week," or "Offer to clean a friend's bathroom." At the beginning of this exercise, everyone was invited to put a challenge into a bowl. The kids added their ideas, the moms and dads did too. This week we were challenged to, "Be open and aware of the … [Read more...]

JUST ONE THING
By on March 25, 2014 with
Do you ever feel like you don't know where to begin? Do you get the feeling like there are too many tabs in the files in your brain and you don't know where to start? Well, sometimes we do too. I once read a book that said before you do the fun stuff, you should do the important stuff first, like eating your vegetables before dessert. But, what if your to-do's both moved you forward and also were fun? What if you just had "JUST ONE THING" to do that would begin to make an incremental change in you, your style, your … [Read more...]

Your Perfect Clutch – Hammitt Bags
By on March 12, 2014 with
I'm the type of person who strives to pack light. I say strives because if you asked my husband he might just roll his eyes. Recently, I was looking for a bag specifically for a trip to St. Thomas. I wanted to travel light. I wanted my bag to go from casual to dressy. I was thinking a clutch would be nice, because I wanted to be able to pop it in my beach tote and then carry it to cocktails and dinner later. If possible I wanted the ability to be hands free. Oh, and I needed to get one more formal night out of … [Read more...]

First (4 hour) Opera
By on March 3, 2014 with
You may have seen some of our fun on Instagram last weekend. We were both in New York City with our husbands to see Prince Igor at the New York Metropolitan Opera. I'd like to say that we are opera aficionados and we were well aware that this was the first time Prince Igor had been performed at the NY Met in 100 years, but to be honest, this was a first, for all of us! To attend an opera was on both of our bucket lists and seeing as my cousin, Maria Dolan is an opera singer and was performing in Prince Igor...and...seeing as the … [Read more...]
