“What the hell are we doing?”After an exceptionally cold and grey winter we woke up one morning, desperately looked at each other and asked this question. We then realized that we were not living the life that we imagined for ourselves. Six months later we sold everything we owned and moved five hundred and fifty-five miles […]
As some of you that follow my facebook feed have noticed, Sean and I have a couple favorite bars that we go to here on Tybee. Before moving here, we hardly ever went out to a bar. Partly because there were not many places to frequent in Stafford VA, and our life was consumed with many other […]
Today was a simple day, not too much was planned or happened, but I was able to hear the best sound ever. After taking care of business emails in the morning and getting Ava off to school, I put on my work out clothes and headed to the YMCA, as I am committed to making […]
Have you ever had a dream or passion for something that was extinguished because of life’s circumstances? Either work, marriage, children or just keeping up with the day to day slowly crushed inside you what was once a burning passion? Painting, music, photography, fitness, sports…what was yours?

We’re published! South Magazine picked up our collaborative article about Jill’s life and works and published it in the Feb 2015 issue! We are excited see our idea go from concept to print!
One of the best things that has happened since we have moved to Tybee is we now have overflowing circles of friends. Don’t get me wrong, we do have wonderful friends in Virginia, and I still love them very much. What is so different here is people live at a much slower pace of life. […]
Turning the pages I fantasized about the life that the author described. Communing with family and friends. Finding life in each day working and playing in community. I found this book in a small local book store in Mystic CT when I was visiting my oldest son. This was two nights before hurricane Irene was […]

Getting to know new friends in the city we were moving to was exciting. No kids in the picture yet, they were happily enjoying their early married […]
