One of the best things about traveling to Iowa (my current location), is the anticipation of some new Grandma stories.
Tonight we were treated to some of her usual antics at a family dinner celebration for my brother's engagement. As my brother and his fiance opened their gift from her they found a nice set of flatware and a newspaper article. The newspaper article is nothing new, as she often sends clippings and obituaries along with birthday cards. This article was wedding themed of course. Upon opening her card we learned that the flatware was, in fact, not the set they had registered for, but rather a set my own parents had given her about 5 years ago for a Christmas present.
With that, I wish you a Merry Christmas!

we are
Lauren + Claire.
We’ve been friends since we were eight years old. Our friendship has survived a laundry list of growing pains that come with being friends for the better part of our lives.
Lauren is a master of art, amateur of botany, aficionado of birdwatching.
Claire takes photographs in exchange for money, dabbles in veganism, and is plotting a 4-month escape to Central America.
We are letter writers to the core; this blog is an online companion to the real handwritten letters that traverse the distance from Colorado to Washington and back on a regular basis.
