London Without a Toddler – Abbey Spa

Posted on January 26, 2016 by katese11

Yes, I know the post title and the picture above seem to contradict each other…but trust me, my spa “day” was toddler-free and in fact preschooler-free if we’re getting technical. The picture was taken by Nathan, at home with both … Continue reading →

Posted on January 13, 2016 by katese11

Ashes to Ashes, Funk to Funky

Posted on January 11, 2016 by katese11

It’s unusual for me to write about the death of a celebrity but I’m going to make an exception. Because today we didn’t just lose one celebrity, we lost several. The Thin White Duke, Aladdin Sane, Ziggy Stardust…with Bowie, so … Continue reading →
