  • Welcome to my blog!

    Hi! I'm Traci. I'm a Registered Nurse who loves quilting, knitting, cross stitch, and the great outdoors. In my pre-scrubs life, I owned Real Photography, and you can still see my old wedding and portrait photography site here .

    I've created a map that shows links to our camping/hiking/general family fun review posts that you can find here. It's pretty much the coolest thing on this site. Thanks, Google!

    I great big puffy heart *love* comments, so please let me know you visited! I try to always reply!

It’s okay, Mommy. It’s really hard to make beautiful things. You just have to go slowly.

Will, running to comfort me yesterday after I accidentally sliced through the dress I’d spent many hours on for Ellie and let loose a string of curses.
