My friend Emily and I always seemed to find something fun to get into during the summers. Bonfires, taking road trips to Old Orchard Beach, watching Grease while eating take out from the local diner. Even during our college years summers were our time for catching up and having adventures.

BFF Gift Idea: Share summer fun with your BFF with a Summer Must Haves Beach Tote

Summer stretches out longer here in Kentucky but back in Maine there’s not too much longer before kids go back to school and summer winds down. Both Emily and her husband work in the school system so their slightly more carefree days are about to end, too. Before that happens, though, I’m sending her a BFF gift – a beach tote full of summer must-haves to remind her of all our fun times! Continue reading »

My sister-in-law’s baby shower is coming up in a little over a month and I’m getting excited. I unfortunately won’t be able to make it back to Maine to attend so that means I need to get my DIY baby shower gifts, shopping, and decor ideas done now so I have time to mail them.

I love shopping for baby boy stuff which is a good thing considering that all the baby cousins have been boys. And with Sam and Abby having just found out they are having a boy, too, I’ve had a better idea of all the goodies I want to pick up to send for the shower and birth.

As my sister-in-law Abby’s October due date gets closer, I get more excited. I can’t wait to meet my new nephew Jayce! There’s been plenty of planning with an upcoming shower and working on the nursery, but I’m also doing a little planning for Abby for “after”.

Let’s be honest, labor is exhausting. I know Sam and the rest of the family will give her plenty of support but when she gets home from the hospital she’s going to feel a lot different than the day she goes in. I’m working on putting together a list of freezer meals that she can store away now, and I also put together this New Mom Gift Basket that I will have waiting for her when she gets home.
