I love quirky. Maybe even some weird. I do. I can’t help it. So yesterday when I was perusing Etsy in search of the perfect light fixture to go over our dining room table and stumbled across this bad boy – As seen at Designsponge.com I found myself smitten! I mean, I recognize that they’re
Fun Friend Friday: Molly
Meet Molly. Photographer. Graphic Designer in training. Wife to Sthteben. Fiercely loyal. Wise beyond her years.

Fun Friend Friday: Lauren
Alrighty, folks…remember how at the beginning of the week I told you that Friday’s are now the day you hear from fellow Down and Dirtiers? Friends who have a voice and a passion that is [sometimes] different than my own. My goal is for this to be a community, our little Down and Dirty world,
C’mon Coffee, Let’s Return to the Garden.

Church Skipper: Part 2

Dirty is relative, right?
I had big plans for yesterday. The vacuuming and the dusting and the park going and the blogging all wrapped up with the family movie night. Then in the middle of my attempt at a shower and a reasonable appearance, I discovered that my engagement ring had been moved by one Miss Magnificent. And I
The Divinity About Us
I am so desperate to do it right. I mean, look at her. Wouldn’t you want to do it right? To love her enough. Photo by my sister, Molly To discipline her effectively so that she doesn’t get caught with her hiney in the air. To show her how to run fast and
