    September favorites (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    Model sailboats in Central Park. Will and I took the boys to the city one Saturday afternoon after Teddy’s soccer game and our older three had the best time trying to steer their model sailboats around the pond for half an hour. We then headed to The Smith in Midtown for an early dinner — we always loved eating there when we lived in the city (~12 years ago now!) and the noise level accommodates lots of little boys quite well. Magnetic blocks in tow, always!<div class="captioned-image-c

    7 things that make our house feel like home (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    For better or worse, I spend a lot of time thinking about our house. We’ve renovated most corners of it in stages over the past seven years, but I can’t shut off the part of my brain that’s always noticing things that could be prettier or more functional or (ideally) both. But when I think about the things that actually make this house feel like home, they’re really not the major design decisions at all — they’re the pieces we use and love every day, things I’d miss immediately if they disappear

    Excerpt · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    We spent seven weeks on Nantucket this summer, and while I would (will!) do it again in a heartbeat, I also came home with a pretty clear list of things I’d like to do differently next year.I’ve shared plenty of the fun parts of our summers on Nantucket over the years (and you can find my favorite lobster roll, the best blueberry muffins, and lots more in my Nantucket guide here!). But I thought it might be useful to share a little more of the behind-the-scenes logistics here: how we balance fam

    What I’m eyeingThis to-die-for chambray dress. I should really stop eyeing it and just hit “buy now” because I can already think of five September and October events it would be ideal for.This navy jacket. Do I *need* another navy jacket? No. But does this one look absolutely perfect? 100% yes.These suede ankle boots. I have a similar pair I’ve worn to the ground dating all the way back to <a href="https://mackenziehoran.com/honeymo

    How we celebrate our children’s birthdays (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    I have a vivid memory of my little brother Grayson’s birthday party at our childhood home. He was turning 4 or 5, which puts me at 9 or 10, and my parents had arranged a small petting zoo in the front yard where kids were holding bunnies and probably some other less cute and cuddly critters.I don’t know whether it was a conscious or subconscious choice to follow suit in celebrating our children’s birthday parties at home (though I do know we haven’t brought in a petting zoo just yet…), but I hav
