November was a blur around here ... we're full speed into basketball season and Christmas preparations and the occasional quiet moment when I could write a blog post but decide I'd rather indulge in a book. It's likely this month will be about the same .... I've got a few posts in mind but for the most part, I'm choosing to be offline more than on. And I'm really hoping you will do the same! I am doing something special on Facebook {because I do manage to check in there and on Instagram ... [Read More]
30 Great Stocking Stuffers and Gifts for Teenage Girls
My girl and I have been working on her gift list for Christmas. Between her fellow cheerleaders, cousins, and close friends, she has quite a few gifts to buy or make. So, we've been on the hunt for the best gifts in several price ranges. And since we've done all this research, it seemed a shame not to share it with you as well ... since there's a pretty good chance at least a few of my readers have a teenage girl on their lists also. And so, here is our list of 30 great gifts for teenage girls ... [Read More]
Choose the Moment
Oh my word, y'all! How has it been over a week since I last wrote? I wish I could tell you it's because I've been busy decorating for the holidays and I have some easy but awesome ideas to share ... or because I was inspired to start sewing again ... or because Scott had whisked me off for a week-long trip to the mountains. {A girl can dream, right?} But really, all that's been happening here is the same mundane stuff of life that you deal with also. As I sit here looking out the window at ... [Read More]

I'm all about some cute clothes ... even if I can't take a good selfie for anything. And I'm also all about some cute and modest clothes for my girl. Many of you loved this week's post featuring Casiday's adorable outfits so you can definitely expect more of that. In fact, we're brainstorming a few ideas about mother/daughter styling. And since this week has also had its fair share of stress and anxiety about social media, I thought I'd share some of the great resources I've found lately for ... [Read More]
Yik Yak … Yuck {Notes from an Overprotective Mom}
Three days ago I heard about Yik Yak because I am one of "those moms." You know, the ones who monitor my child's phone and social media and online activity. I downloaded the app to see what it contained and I was horrified by the language and attitudes displayed. I wasn't surprised that students in my daughter's high school cussed and were disrespectful of teachers. I wasn't even shocked at the graphic nature of "yaks" about sexual acts. Let's face it, all of that is on prime time television and ... [Read More]
WIWW Teenage Girl Fashion Edition
Last month was so crazy and busy with big scary projects and lots of ball games. I have to be honest, I only got out of my yoga pants if I had to go to a ball game or to church. Please say you understand and that you have days {weeks, months??} where the same sort of thing happens to you. The good news is, I still have photos to share with you because my sweet girl has such cute style ... and I wanted to highlight some of her recent outfits. Sometimes it seems like all we hear is how ... [Read More]
