To my dad, who always took care of me and taught me everything I know.

To Steve, the future father of my children, I know you will be so great at it when the time comes. (This is not an announcement of any kind. Do not start any rumors!! AHEM Caroline.)

To Tom, my father in law, for raising his son right and for making me feel a part of the family.

Happy Father’s Day!

Father's Day

Dear Dad,

We are so lucky to call you our Father.  You have instilled in us so many amazing values and taught us so many invaluable lessons.  We are so grateful and we hope we have made you proud!  We know it must be hard living in a house full of four women (some strongly opinionated and some highly emotional), we don’t know how you do it!  Thank you for taking care of us. You are the best!

We love you to the moon and back!

Love,

Your Girls

In honor of you, we thought we would share your favorite poem…

Wise words.  Happy Father’s Day!

Can I Join in on All the Fun??

My sisters started blogs.

Bows & Stars

I was sitting at home reading their blogs.

They were bopping around LA spending time together, snapping photos and writing about their fun adventures!

I was starting to feel a little left out!!

So what’s a sister to do??

BUTT IN… Naturally!

So began the brainstorming and we founded the Milly & Grace Girls Blog!!

The name Milly & Grace came about 4 years ago when I opened a clothing & home décor boutique on Nantucket.  I named the store after our Grandmothers: Milly & Grace (see the About page).

Really, my family is as much a part of the Milly & Grace brand as I am.  The store wouldn’t be possible if it weren’t for them.  My mom helps with buying & merchandising, Allison worked at the store the first summer and makes all the music playlists, Caroline has worked/ been the boss every summer since it opened and my dad has offered countless hours of business advice.  It truly has become a family affair.

Since Allison and Caroline are also the granddaughters of Milly & Grace it worked out to be the perfect name!

So thank you to my adorable little sisters for including their big sister so she doesn’t feel left out!

Let the blogging begin!  I hope I can keep up with them!
