I feel like we’ve been pretty MIA lately. We’ve had lots of family stuff happening over on the east coast, and we just celebrated our friend’s wedding in DE. Finally, we’re headed back to Nashville for a couple weeks off before touring August starts back up again. This summer has been such a restful time. …
I’m sitting in a coffee shop at the University of Delaware – my alma mater. It always feels a little surreal to be back here. I wrote a song this morning out on the north green outside the building I lived in sophomore year. I know I’m not old, but I felt a little old …
You guys. I’m getting excited. Seriously. Why? Two reasons: Firstly, (I think that’s a word? I know that secondly is) we had a blast this week recording The Sound of Silence by Simon & Garfunkel. If for some reason you’ve never heard this song, or Simon & Garfunkel (gasp!) you should check it out: I …
I went shopping yesterday. I was looking for a cheap dress to wear to a couple of weddings I’m going to this month. The trip was unsuccessful. There weren’t any pretty, cheap dresses to be found. I went to Anthropologie the other day (let the drooling commence) to look at the gorgeous clothes and found …
Every couple a days (or weeks depending on how lazy I’m feeling) I go through our mailing list sign up emails. For those of you who have joined the mailing list, you may remember that on the sign-up form there is a place to send us a message. I read all of the messages. I …

The silent prayers offered up to heaven during the picking process, “Please God, not this time!” Quietly pleading, “Please! Pick …
It’s hard to believe that June is over. I feel like it came and went so fast. I had a dream last night that it was snowing here and I kept saying to Tyler, “It’s snowing in July!” It was so exciting and disappointing at the same time. The last day of June happens to …
I know you’ve been waiting anxiously…err…probably not. Anyway, here are some photos! My sister and her husband Kevin traveled with us for the weekend. Kevin took most of these photos. In Seattle: At my sister’s in Poulsbo: In Olympia: In Seattle: Portland & Silverton: A kitty showed up after the show: This is just to …
I’ve not been a consistent blogger this month. We’ve spent a lot of time with family. It’s been wonderful. We spent the past week in Texas with my parents, my sister and her husband, and my brother. It was nearly 100 degrees everyday and sunny. My parents happen to live at a resort. Well, not …
One of my favorite things about being home is baking. Those of you who’ve been reading the blog for a while probably know this. I’ve tried to cut back on my baking habit, but I honestly think it’s in my blood. My grandma is a fantastic baker. Her pies are divine, and she even taught …
