I just wanted to take a little bit of time today to wish you all a very Happy 4th of July. I hope that you are taking the time to yourselves and with your families. If you are unsure what to do today here are a few ideas:
Holidays
Southern New Year’s Traditions
It’s the first day of a brand new year. The day when millions of people set out to make resolutions that (most likely) less than half will follow thorough on. Me included. However, rather than tell you about those pointless things I thought I would share with you some of the traditions that us southerners…
Holiday Gift Guide: Package From Santa
This year we have a new baby who will be experiencing Christmas for the first time. We also have plenty of other children who love to get letters from Santa. That is why we love Package from Santa so much. I have worked with them several times over the last few years and I can…
Holiday Gift Guide: Hammacher Schlemmer
How many of you put your Christmas tree up last night? Typically my family does as well. This year I admit that we put it up early but that was because I found the most awesome tree at Hammacher Schlemmer and they were so wonderful to send it to us. I have to give them a…
Thanksgiving and the Macy’s Day Parade: A Family Tradition

Happy Fourth of July
It’s the 4th of July and I don’t know about all of you but we will be spending with family and friends. We already have plans in the works and currently I am most likely prepping things for this afternoon. One of the things I love about spending the 4th at my brothers is that…
Memorial Day
I will be taking the entire weekend off to celebrate Memorial Day with my family. As a proud member of an extremely military family I want to take a moment (early) to say THANK YOU to each and every member of the Armed Forces for all of the things they do. I would like to…
