Y'all, it's been over 2 months since I've posted anything. To say that the holidays were busy would be a complete understatement. All of you split family mama's out there know exactly what I'm talking about. I see you nodding your heads at your phone/computer screen. If you've been following along on this journey with [...]
With the holidays quickly approaching, people like myself are really feeling the pressure to finalize and buckle down on the Christmas shopping for everyone on the list.

Yes, yet ANOTHER wedding post. I'm apologizing in advance, SORRY! With that being said- OUR WEDDING CAKE WAS MY FAVORITE CAKE OF ALL TIME. This includes both categories of looks/presentation AND taste. Our cake was made by Jennifer Dontz from Manistee, MI. She owns Sugar Delites, and let me tell you what- that cake was [...]
