“They say women speak 20,000 words a day. I have a daughter who gets that done by breakfast.” @babyberrycollective Gracee Rae celebrated her third birthday on March 21st.

Its summer and all those in PNW said - Finally! We spent time last week with our calendars and planned out the summer fun we have scheduled, all while leaving time for some spontaneous adventures - taking full advantage of what the next few months have to offer.

In spirit of the February and celebrating Valentine’s Day, here are a few things that we LOVED this past month: Getting our groove on during Justin Timberlake’s Concert in the middle of some football game on Gracee’s first Superbowl Sunday. (see “Instagram Story Highlights” for the evidence) Cozy nights at the beach house. There is ...
Gracee Rae’s 1st birthday party is just 50 days away, so let the planning begin!! I have always loved planning a good party, but now I get to plan a birthday party as a mom and I could not be more excited! For one – it’s another annual reason to host a fun celebration and ...
