  1. I read your blog everyday, I apologize for never leaving a comment! Those desserts look pretty incredible, happy (belated) 4th of July!

  2. I read your blog the moment you update it! I'm always interested in any ideas you may have, or maybe even what you're wearing that day! ha (that sounds awful doesn't it?!)

    I love your style!

    Looks like you had a great 4th, can't wait till you get a hold of that recipe!

  3. I read your blog and love it! I am a friend of Lisette Blanchards (thats how I found your blog.)

  5. Sorry. You don't know me but I love your blog.
    I usually see it on my reader, via my phone, so commenting is sometimes inconvenient!
    You are gorgeous and I just don't know how you do it all! Inspiration, for sure!
    Beautiful family.
    Liz.

  6. Jane–thanks again for your help with my blog! Love all your 4th posts. It's my favorite holiday and you party it up like we do!
    Can't wait for the recipe on the yummy dessert!

  7. I too am guilty of reading your blog daily and loving it! I have gotten so many wonderful ideas, your blog is my escape for a short while each day. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts, ideas, and your life. I know it brings much joy to many people, you ROCK!!!

  8. I, too and a reader of your blog. You likely don't remember me, you did my nails a few times when we were in high school – i was a wimpy soph. and you were friends with the Matheson's.. Anyhoo.. love the blog.. your family is gorgeous.. and you still look as amazing as ever!

  9. Hi Jane! My name is Kelli and I have really enjoyed your blog too! I found your blog through a mutual friend on FB (Jennilynn Prior Jorgensen) I noticed Dusty's comment one day and recognized his name from college and yadda yadda yadda, here I am. My husband and I were actually teaching English in Korea the same time you and Dusty were there. You have a beautiful family and I love getting ideas for family fun. Thanks for sharing!

  10. I'm reading :)…and you couldn't be more darling! We have lots of friends from Center Stage (my family owns Infinity Dance) Your daughter looks like an amazing little dancer!! I love all the detail in your day to day living & parties! What a cute mom you are!

  11. Hi Jane! I too am guilty of blog stalking without commenting. Dusty and I were childhood friends in Alamo, and I found your blog after he posted a link to an entry you had made about his mother (whom I loved dearly). I read…and was hooked – not only because you are a wonderful blogger (a skill that I would love to possess, but sadly don't…lol) but because it's given me an opportunity to reaquaint myself with my friend and get to know his family – even if it is just by reading about all of you. Thanks for sharing!

  12. Hi Jane…

    I admit I am an anti-comment when it comes to blogs…sorry :). I found your blog through Sara's blog while getting updates on little Bronson. You and Sara are both good friends of my brother Scott Taylor. Love reading your blog! You have such a cute family!!

  13. Hi there. I would love that recipe. Looks yummy. And looks like your Fourth was super fun. Thanks for sharing. I love to hear from girls too. Wishing you a wonderful vacation.

  14. Jane, I loved reading all about your 4th! You guys definitely know how to party 🙂 I haven't read your blog in quite some time, and I'll admit that I've probably spent way more time than I should have…but your blog is kind of addicting! I love it!! I miss you and your fam! Good luck to Kiana at nationals!!

  15. You know I am here, reading! Love your blog, love your family, and all the cute things you do. That dessert looks amazing. Please share! The other one she made on Sunday was also amazing.
