Decorating in January, the hardest month of the year to decorate, but I will inspire you! Hi! Remember me? I'm April, and I have a blog... I ended up taking a bit of a break after the holidays to regroup, recharge, and figure out how the heck I was going to decorate or create some ambiance in my house after the holidays were over.

We Survived a 14-Hour Road Trip!
Yes. You read that correctly. We just got home from a very, very long road trip with our little lady in tow. All of Mr. Hoff's extended family lives in Nebraska. He moved the 720 miles to Indiana with his mom, dad, and sisters when he was 5 years old, and they've been here ever since! This trip was very important to me and Mr. Hoff. Much of his extended family, including his grandparents, hadn't met Miss L. yet! We were excited to go and introduce her to her to everybody! Of course she ...
