Indigo 1745

August 20, 2015 by Julie 3 Comments

I am a speed shopper. I get frustrated sifting through racks of clothes, I find it overwhelming to try on lots of clothes, and I hate the inner monologue battle of trying to decide whether or not I should buy an item.

The Music Man at the Artisan Center Theater

May 27, 2015 by Julie Leave a Comment

Those who have been here for awhile have probably heard me talk about my middle sister and her rather incredible singing voice before. This year she made it one of her goals to audition for a musical at a local theater, and she got a part!

Merry Christmas

December 25, 2014 by Julie Leave a Comment

  We spent Christmas Eve partaking in all of our favorite traditions. A trip to the Galleria Mall in Dallas, where we did mainly window shopping. Dinner at a local Tex-Mex restaurant, and this year my parents and sister joined us as well. Christmas light looking and endless singing of "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" from Littlest. And for Christmas morning video proof for Littlest that … [Read more...]
