Songs to be Alive to.

Skeletons by Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

One of my favorite songs in the world. Seriously, top of the list. It just gets inside of me. I put it on my birth play list because it makes me feel really badass. That sounds silly to say but whenever I hear it I get a little bounce in my hips and sparks in my eyes and everything feels good and right for a little while. Perfect music to dig deep and birth a baby to (or just dance around your bedroom… I’ve done both)

Love,

M

Hello. I'm Melissa.

Wife to a rock n roll, super dad named Brent.

We're the adventuring type. Go. do. See.
We hit the jackpot when we had our daughter, Everly Veda in January 2010.
She has my eyes, his lips and a San Francisco heart.

In May 2011, we welcomed Arlo Redding, the most magical little dude ever into our family. His presence has made our good thing, even better.

We like old stuff and keeping it simple.
We believe in love, family and a good pair of cowboy boots.

Brent sings songs.
I write words.
And these sweet babies make our world go round.

Welcome.
