real moms {sharing} all things fabulous
In 2017 I was the mom who hand molded homemade Rice Krispy Treats into basketballs and painted chocolate lines on them. There’s more… I created a hoop with a cup and a backboard out of rolodex cards. It was our first year of basketball and I was ambitious. HERE’s the post. It’s still a great…
Hi I’m Ginny, I’m not an artist and I don’t particularly like crafts. I have no business making my own cards, but I realized this weekend that we forgot to buy Valentine’s Day cards. We like to send cards to our cousins in Michigan and time was not on our side to get them in…
We had a great time in Oakland on Saturday night. For the second time, we enjoyed Supercross LIVE and it didn’t disappoint. You don’t have to be a die hard motorcycle fan to enjoy this sport. We were there for the races, balls of fire, stadium food, some selfies, and family time. You can laugh,…
Have you heard about the new show on PBS kids? It’s called Xavier Riddle and the Secret Museum. It’s one of those shows that your kids will watch that will captivate you as well. You might even find it enjoyable! It’s a comedy driven animated adventure series that is based on the best-selling kids’ book series,…
On December 31st I began my last year in my 30’s. It’s bittersweet because it’s been an amazing decade and I don’t want it to end. However, I know how each new era of my life has only gotten better. As I quickly approach the fact that I’m basically middle-aged, I’ve been more aware of…
Have you ever watched a Supercross event? Don’t miss your chance to experience the most competitive and highest-profile off-road motorcycle racing championship in the world – Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship. Every week, the greatest athletes from around the globe seek to outperform each other on custom-designed tracks inside the most prestigious…
Happy New Year! We hit the ground running from our Christmas break. Seems like a good time to talk about those feet we have running everywhere! Our boys are both playing in a community basketball league. Practice began in two different locations at the same time last night. I’m thankful we can divide and conquer…
Here’s a rare sighting of my husband on the blog. This man has had the same wallet for as long as I’ve known him. He says he replaced it with an identical wallet early in our marriage. We just celebrated our 15th anniversary in July so this steady and content man I’m married to has…
One of my favorite things to do during the holidays is to snuggle up in our cozy living room and watch a Christmas movie with the kids. We don’t typically do a movie on a school night, but Angela’s Christmas is a short film. We got it started by 7:30 and it was done by…
I’ve got lists for my lists as I go into the next few weeks of holiday planning. To add to the thrill of the holidays, we also leave for a two week vacation the day after Christmas. I’m in super planner mode and this week I’m finalizing all the stocking stuffers. I have three toys…
Christmas is my favorite time of year. I dream of sitting on the couch in my ugly cozy socks with a warm cup of cocoa. Said socks may be in the photo below. New Christmas pajamas or books are a part of our tree trimming tradition. My eyes are getting way too old to read…
I know December is here because the weather outside is frightful- our winter rain began in California. Also, our elf is back and our advent calendar. The calendar is a little different this year, not our usual Trader Joe’s chocolates hiding behind each door. It’s quite spectacular actually. Jack pulled out his invisibility cloak to…
