Ok, I'll cop to it, these photos are from two seperate shopping trips. But honestly, there are times where the only difference between Anthropologie and our local ReStore is the price and how much dust you'll have to wipe off your purchase before using it. But really, I'm in love with Anthro's china. All of… Continue reading ReStore & Anthro Look the Same

Hey girl. January 2013 in Review
Today's bonus post is specially brought to you by my laziness for not having done a January recap post sooner, and by the funny link party being hosted by Michelle (Decor and the Dog), Kelly (View Along the Way), Chelsea (Two Twenty One), Bliss (Bliss Ranch) and Ashley (Domestic Imperfection). So obviously I HAD to… Continue reading Hey girl. January 2013 in Review

Book Project Bananza Vol. 1!
It is no secret that we are big fans of Young House Love. Afterall, it was their blog and encouragement that sparked the start of our own blog. And I'm sure meeting them twice - first in Cincinnati then again in DC helps make the case. But a big part of why we are fans… Continue reading Book Project Bananza Vol. 1!

Twas A Very DIY Christmas – Part 2
Before heading east for the holiday, we had a mini-Christmas with Bill's family at his Mom's house. There was some SERIOUSLY tasty pizza (i know pizza sounds un-festive for a family holiday celebration, but you haven't had this pizza - I mean, DELICIOUS stuff! Just sad they're too far from the apartment to deliver!) and… Continue reading Twas A Very DIY Christmas – Part 2

Twas A Very DIY Christmas – Part 1
FINALLY after a few days of patient waiting time, my laptop seems to be back to it's old self... save for an extremely sticky keyboard... did I mention that it was Vitamin Water? Opps... But here ya go, a much delayed recap of Christmas - materialism style. This Christmas was technically our 3rd, but it… Continue reading Twas A Very DIY Christmas – Part 1

This Blogcast Post-poned Due to Technical Difficulty
Monday of this week was supposed to kick off our favorite Christmas gifts - and lets just say it was a very crafty holiday - but after a relaxing Sunday of photo editing, my laptop decided it was thirsty. Technology + water =\= fun times. So for right now my lap top is in a… Continue reading This Blogcast Post-poned Due to Technical Difficulty

2013 Goals
Earlier this week we reviewed the things we've accomplished in our short time in Blogland in 2012. Today we'll be discussing the f u t u r e. Personally, I look forward to the efficiency that YouTwitFace would bring us. But alas, we're not quite that far into the future yet. So let's tell you… Continue reading 2013 Goals

2012 In Review
Whelp, we haven't been at this blogging business for very long. But here's a quick rundown of the top events since Finding Our Voice in this little corner of the web this past August. September was a busy month where we flexed our carpentry skills and shared a few of our most popular posts. We… Continue reading 2012 In Review

NPS Stamps – Hopewell Furnace NHS
Hope everyone enjoyed their holiday! Bill and I spent Christmas outside of Philadelphia with my family, but to get here we first had to traverse nearly the entire state of Pennsylvania from Pittsburgh to Philly. We figured rather than rushing across, we'd break apart the 6 hour trip and detour to a National Park, much… Continue reading NPS Stamps – Hopewell Furnace NHS

Does This Make Me a YHLover?
I can't help it. The idea of standing for hours in the DC cold and experiencing the bonding that occurs through that time you share with your line neighbors is just too appealing to pass up. (Or rather, the making new friends part is, not so much the risk of frostbite.) And it doesn't hurt… Continue reading Does This Make Me a YHLover?

The Turkey Hangover Means Now You Can Play Christmas Music.
I try to resist getting into Christmas too early because otherwise, by the time the old man in the red suit drops off a few packages at our house, I'm ready to rip all the decorations down and end up being more Scrooge and less Jolly than I'd like to be. But once the bird… Continue reading The Turkey Hangover Means Now You Can Play Christmas Music.

Geographically Challenged ~ Inexpensive Art
As first highlighted in this post about our choice of photo ledges, Bill and I decided to create some artwork that would be a nod to where we're each (PROUDLY) from, and of course where we first met. And since this is our Anniversary Week, I thought I'd keep the love flowing and show you… Continue reading Geographically Challenged ~ Inexpensive Art

Today we celebrate our 2 year anniversary since 'meeting at a bar'. Highlights of that evening included Denzel Washington on a train, Fireworks, lively hockey discussions, and a random apartment party. Ohh the good old days!
