September is one of my favorite months for some odd reason. I’m not exactly sure why, but I really enjoy the month. Today is the third Thursday of September which means it’s time for another style challenge with my friends of Ageless Style! We are a group of women of all ages and styles. Each …
When I was a little girl, the front porch was off limits to me as well as my siblings. Our front porch was basically a large square of concrete with a step or two coming off of it. The only people who ever came to the front door were salesmen. Everyone else always came to …
I know Fall doesn’t officially arrive until later this month, but I thought I’d get us all in the mood! Fall is probably my favorite season of all. I really like the colors, the cooler temperatures, and the coziness of the season. But, I am not a pumpkin spice kinda girl! I love a good …
I didn’t disappear… Hopefully, you missed me! I really didn’t intend to be absent from the blogosphere for so long.

ITI was the brain child of a lady named Susan Kovalik. The acronym stood for Integrated Thematic Instruction. …
