How to Take Family Photos (And Be in Them!)

How to Take Family Photos

Mitch here!

As the Kelly in the City Resident Nerd, I’m typically tasked all tech-related questions. To be honest, I usually fail–or even make things worse–when I get down to problem solving, but I never go down without a fight. A few weeks ago, though, I figured out something techy that’s really cool! And while I think it’ll be helpful for bloggers, I also think it’s great for normal people, too. ;)

Easy Weekend Look

NIC + ZOE

Chunky Knit Sweater, Leggings and Flexible Loafers (They come in lots of colors!) c/o

First of all, thank you so much for the birthday wishes yesterday! You’re the best. :)

I’ll share some pics of my weekend in the coming days–thank you for everything, Mitch!–but I guess my big news is that I finally went to an ENT specialist for the sinus infections.

Happy Birthday, Kelly!

Happy Birthday, Kelly!

Kelly doesn’t know I’m writing this post and it’s days like this when I could end up losing my password privileges. You see, we’re one of those weird couples who basically have the same birthday. Kelly’s is today and mine is Thursday, and while I’m not a scientist or anything, I’m pretty sure that makes her older than me. So today I hacked into her website to give my senior counterpart (who’s hundreds of thousands of seconds older than me) the day off to rest her tired bones. She deserves it. She’s the most amazing person I know. And she’s older than me.

Musings, 10/6

Navy L.L.Bean Bean Boots (Looking for the the most comfortable pair of Bean Boots?! Boots made with tumbled leather are phenomenal.) / Barbour Jacket (Here’s the polar quilted version, which is much warmer.) / Favorite Fisherman Sweater / Camp Socks

Hi, Friends! I took a few days off to give myself a break and recover from my millionth sinus infection this season 😂, and I’m definitely making progress. (Though I realize I say that every week and then BAM: sick again.) I have an appointment with a specialist on Monday, though, so I’m excited to get professional opinions and start to talk about my options–despite how scared I am. ;)

Nantucket House Tour

Nantucket House Tour

Yesterday, while I was putting together my huge recap of our trip to Martha’s Vineyard with Vineyard vines, I stumbled upon a zillion photos of Nantucket houses that I’d taken with my iPhone while visiting my cousins. Actually, I took them with Mitch’s iPhone. My phone has been broken for months. 😂 Replacing it this weekend, though! But I thought they’d make for a fun post.

Did you have a nice weekend?! We went down to my in-laws’ lake house in Hudson, Illinois for a couple of days, and it was so relaxing! I actually made a “highlight” video, which you can catch on Instagram here. (Click on the little circle that says “Lake House Wknd.” :)
