May 2014 - Hello Mess

http://www.hellomess.com/2014_05_01_archive.html

May 26, 2014. A few weeks ago, someone that I recently started following on Instagram posted a blog post about something that sounded interesting. I clicked over to read, and immediately became confused. Who was she talking about? I felt like there was a back story that I was missing, and characters that needed intros. I had never thought about new readers being confused when I put up a blog post, but have avoided blogging completely until I could sit down and explain a few things. There are lots of craf...

Family walks. - Hello Mess

http://www.hellomess.com/2015/07/family-walks.html

July 9, 2015. With my own children, we have gone on countless family walks and bike rides. We live near a bike trail, and if we walk from our home, to the trail, to the back of our neighborhood, we can do a full circle in thirty minutes exactly. I imagine that our total walking time will decrease as little legs grow longer, but for now, it's a nice thirty minutes unplugged together. Shoes c/o BZees.com. Style can be found HERE.

Personalized Moccasins - Hello Moccs. June 27, 2015. I am so incredibly excited about the moccasins that I released earlier today! They have been in the works for a while now, and with the patent pending, I finally feel comfortable adding them to the shop. Unfortunately, nearly every design I've ever made has been copied, and my moccasin photos are in shops around the world pretending to be the work of others. These personalized moccs are my new favorite! Meet "Hello My Name Is.":. June 16, 2015. Wants t...

One week's worth of vegetable dinner recipes. - Hello Mess

http://www.hellomess.com/2015/07/one-weeks-worth-of-vegetable-dinner.html

One week's worth of vegetable dinner recipes. July 8, 2015. I've been on a vegetable recipe kick lately. I'm not really a huge fan of veggies, but I'm getting burnt out on my typical dinner of frozen pizza. I don't want to spend my day in the kitchen cooking this Summer, and these recipes are perfect. So easy and so yummy. The other veggie recipes I'll be trying this week are linked below. Tomato Basil Spaghetti Squash Bake. Grilled Vegetable Quesadillas with Goat Cheese and Pesto. 5 minute blog design.

3 Easy Steps to Taking Better Kid Pics. March 28, 2014. I have asked my photographer friend Dustin Bryson to tell my readers some tips to taking better photos of children. In other words, I asked him indirectly for help. His post and beautiful pictures are below. We all have beautiful kids. They have those little fingers and toes that just scream TAKE MY PICTURE AND PUT IT ON FACEBOOK! But what if those photos are blurry, poorly lit or boring? 1 Change your angle. Yeah, so what? 2 Pre Shoot, then Shoot.

April 2015 - Hello Mess

http://www.hellomess.com/2015_04_01_archive.html

April 11, 2015. The last Easter with just three kids. It was messy and imperfect and wonderful. I know I will. April 8, 2015. Exactly one month ago, we celebrated our twelve year anniversary. I'm using the term "celebrated" loosely here. We actually spent the day arguing. Because we are married, and sometimes that's what happens when you're married. Watch c/o Daniel Wellington. Little things go a long way, and it's a shame that I don't sit down and reflect on those little moments more often. I know I will.

January 2015 - Hello Mess

http://www.hellomess.com/2015_01_01_archive.html

Creative plans for 2015. January 28, 2015. It feels like it's been years since I have been excited about Pinterest. There are people who pin religiously or rely on boards for minor details. Some of my boards are actually used, but honestly, it's been a while. And I won't ever be one of those people who fully understands the etiquette of the site, so you'll have to sit back and watch me do it all wrong. Three years ago (! I pinned this pin. January 23, 2015. Our kitty, Ricky. He only goes by Kitty Cat...

December 2013 - Hello Mess

http://www.hellomess.com/2013_12_01_archive.html

Hand embroidered kids art blanket. December 20, 2013. A few weeks ago, I thought of the exact gift I wanted to create for my kindergartner's teacher. She is an amazing woman, an exceptional teacher, and the perfect description of the person I trust my rainbow baby with. The problem is, I'm not able to make the gift I envisioned, so I'll go ahead and tell you my plan in case you'd like to create it. I can hardly sew a straight line. Quilting is probably not something I should attempt. I gave it to her thi...
