Collins Birth Story
On March 11, 2020, our lives were forever changed when Collins Elisabeth Drake came into the world. A day that for so long felt so far out of reach, yet one that will live in our memory as the most special day of our lives. It’s the day we welcomed our daughter into the world and began our new journey as mom and dad! The emotions and experiences of that day are hard to put into words and why it has taken me nearly six months to share our story! There is truly nothing that parallels to giving birth and bringing another life into this world; an indescribable moment that I had to go through...

Instagood…
Confession: I am obsessed with Instagram. It is by far my favorite social media plateform. Here are a few of my latest posts' of beautiful blooms, home projects, the queen city, and shoes. Ugh, shoes... I just can't say no! Other than peonies, hydrangeas are one of my favorite flowers. They are beginning to bloom all across neighborhoods here in good 'ol NC. I just couldn't help but snap a picture of some blooming next door (I may have also snipped off a few for our home... shhh). I've always loved the idea of a gallery wall and have wanted to create one of my own. So, a few weeks ago...

The lose denim fit was hard to beat this summer, and I found that they were especially great to wear when traveling. This Fall I plan pair them with tights...
