Gift Guide for Toddlers
This Gift Guide for Toddlers was so much fun to put together! Toddler toys are adorable. Our family is obsessed with my niece and nephew who will be 16 months at Christmas time. This list was put together with them in mind. It is amazing to me how quickly I have forgotten what 16 month olds are interested in. Fortunately, some of it came back to me. Even more fortunate is that my sister shared some of E&C’s favorite things. Oh, and a few other things were thrown on the list because they were either pretty or looked like fun things to try! Definitely read the descriptions and age ranges…

Gift Guide for School-Aged Kids
Good morning and Welcome to the Gift Guide for School-Aged Kids! I asked for some input from my 7 & 10 year olds, but then I ended up going rogue and making the final list while they were at school. Nonetheless, this Gift Guide was made with their ages in mind.

Cozy Winter Clothes- Mackinaw Road Monday
Good morning and Welcome to Mackinaw Road Monday where most of the time things are pretty random but today are actually somewhat organized. I’m talking about Cozy Winter Clothes. I’ve put together a little board of all of the options I’m considering for this winter. Since I usually have 2-3 colors (I use that term very loosely as the colors are usually black, cream/white, and camel) I wear in each season, it makes it easier to mix and match tops and pants for the maximum number of cozy outfits available to me.

Living Room Plans: A Sectional and Accent Chair Options
Hi there! I was planning on sharing a Fall Dining Table this week, but life got busy with a knee surgery and birthdays and soccer and tennis…. So, I’m going to talk about our Living Room Plans instead! Much like our son’s room, our living room is constantly getting updates and sometimes outright changes. While the tear down/complete TV makeovers are super fun (my favorite things to watch), the reality is that often times at our house the changes are sort of a slow burn. Switching things out one at a time. Or, often times experiencing a domino effect with one change leading to another and another. Such is the…

Mackinaw Road Monday Fall Updates
Good morning and Happy Monday! This week, I thought I would just give some updates about various and miscellaneous topics. So, the usual Monday. Keep reading for entryway wallpaper updates, a new mirror enroute to the house, The Madison, Half Baked Harvest lunch favorites, and a sweater comb that has become a fast favorite. Side note: the stars must be aligned (or something like that) because I have been on a decision-making roll this past week! Very unlike me!

Entryway Wallpaper : Serena and Lily Wallpaper
With fall in full swing and the kids back in school (fingers crossed, fingers crossed), now seems like a great time to attempt to start posting regularly again. We recently updated our Entryway Wallpaper. Actually, we never had wallpaper in this entry. We inherited beautiful entryway wallpaper in our old 1926 home… It was a lovely terra-cotta grasscloth of which I somehow have zero photos… it received so many compliments! While we went a different direction with the style of entryway wallpaper in this colonial home, we are hoping that it has the same welcoming vibe as guests (someday) enter our house.

Mackinaw Road Monday: Fan Favorites
Hi there! Get ready for some truly random musings on this Monday morning (as well as some not-so-great iphone pics). This includes my attempted mirror selfies prior to our family photo session, our 1920’s bathroom plans, apple pie, a favorite podcast and book purchase, a preordered book, and (actually semi-related) things I have my eye on from a recent collaboration launch between two favorites. So, to tie it all together maybe this week we will just call the random list: Fan Favorites.
