i pull the twine

My spools of baker's twine finally arrived today and I cannot WAIT to start my holiday wrapping with these tiny cords. I had been looking for them for a long time after I saw a simple brown paper package tied with red baker's twine.














Because I love y'all SO much I will share with you my source - Sundance Catalogue! These colors are perfect for the holidays however I am sure I'll continue to find ways to use them throughout the year.







Two days till Thanksgiving!

'Liam + Little = ENGAGED!

Last night, after two long weeks of planning, my adorable brother proposed to the love of his life - AMANDA! I say long because keeping a secret like this from Amanda, considering we talk about everything under the moon, was one of the most challenging things I've had to do - so I can't even IMAGINE what it's been like for Will!



Words cannot express how excited I am for Amanda and Will, and I feel SO HONORED to a part of their lives. The way that my brother requested my blessing in asking for Amanda's hand in marriage literally melts my heart and puts a frog in my throat each time I think about it. I feel like the luckiest girl/sister in the world to be gaining Amanda as my sister (AWP for life!) - a woman who inspires me and brings happiness and laugher to my life every day. Will had better watch out - or I might jump in and try to marry her!

I am so full of emotion and love for this couple and am absolutely thrilled for this next phase in their relationship - they are officially on the road to becoming husband and wife!

I love you two SO VERY VERY MUCH and cannot wait to celebrate with you in person - and to check out that ROCK!
