EVERYDAY WITH JILL
Home, Happiness, and Holidays!


Epergne Trouble!
I still love this piece even though it's kinda old fashioned and grandma-y. But whatever. I'm a grandma. And I love the possibilities of this. I will continue to use it during the holidays, and maybe some fresh flowers during the summer. I'm not sure the succulent idea is the right one - but it's ok for now. I didn't want to leave her naked!

L.A. Times Festival of Books 2026 (With Cameos of Matt & Jackie!)
What a fun day! I really recommend for next year! But two tips -- Go early, and bring a hat! It was a littls warm, but so enjoyable being among book lovers!

Baptism Dresses!
What fun shopping for a teeny dress for Frances! I do think I need to do a little more shopping for the peanut, though! Can't wait!

Like Magic! Our New "Staged" Home!
The best part is that we can live with it a little before we decide. It's quite a change! I'm still getting used to it. And feeling some trepidation about all the "white"! But grateful to Robert for the idea and for holding my hand throughout. And to Mechelle and Ashley for putting up with us as they made "magic" in our home!

Mule Day Parade in Columbia Tennessee
HUNDREDS of mules! HUNDREDS! So. Many. Mules. But so much fun! Beautiful weather. The granddaughters were at first reluctant to stand for the parade, but after it got started, they said that they "never wanted to leave!" Robert felt differently (ha! ha!)...but it was wonderful to enjoy the festivities with my daughter and the littles on this special Tennessee day.

Mule Day Preview and Our Tennessee Lodgings!
It was a busy weekend for sure. And this was just the start! Seeing my daughter & the grands was the best part...but the mules came in second! Tune in tomorrow to see the show!

The Boss & Resistance 101: Springsteen in Los Angeles April 2026
I want to do this all over again. Tears of joy that there are men like Springsteen in the world. A gifted, passionate advocate for art, truth justice, and rock and roll. Thank you, Bruce.
