Majority of us are not accomplished in Photoshop or trained in graphic design. In another life, I would go back to school and enjoy a degree in graphic design, but I don’t foresee that happening. In the meantime, I’ve been designing with fotojet.com. It’s a FREE* online photo editor website and there are so many…
It’s certainly not too early to be shopping for Christmas. I don’t know about you, but I have already picked up a couple things my girls have mentioned they would like. As they are “adding them to their Christmas wish list”, I am checking things OFF my purchase to-do list! One thing that we have…
Yes, I realize it’s only October, but there is no time like the present to start planning for the holiday season. You know the requests for your time, money and sanity are just around the corner. So let’s chat about a plan, shall we? Today I’m sharing four parenting tips for a sane holiday season….
Fall – when Mother Nature puts on one last show of color spectacular before winter hits. Soon our facebook and instagram feeds will be a flurry of ripe red apples, bright orange pumpkins and trees dressed in a variety of colors. I kind of love it! But why should we let Mother Nature have all…
“PLAY is the highest form of research.” – Albert Einstein Recently we received a box in the mail from Little Pnuts. On the outside of the box was written the above statement. I LOVE everything about this and it could not be any more true! PLAY is critical for kids to learn… this is how…
I’d love to say that I’m in the kitchen every week trying out new recipes and creating memories with my little ladies. However, trying new things and the kitchen, to me, aren’t one in the same. I’m NOT one to venture out too often. I love creating and making, but 1/2 the time it doesn’t…
Life is better with sparkle! That is a statement I stand firm on! There’s just something magical about things that sparkle. Being quite a crafty person, and shameless lover of glitter, every so often, I find the need to make an ordinary object sparkle and shine. This weekend, we are hosting a couple Christmas parties…
One of our favorite Christmas traditions is to give our kids a “Night Before Christmas” gift. It’s the one gift they get to open on Christmas Eve and they almost always include the same general items :: new pajamas (usually Christmas-y), some hot cocoa or a treat, and a new book. Very simple but it’s…
I shared with you about the Kinetic Sand Build, and now I wanted to share with you another item from Kinetic Sand from Spin Master…the Kinetic Sand Float. This one though, oh so cool because it’s oh so different! This set comes as a SET, which means all you need for a day of play…
I’m always looking for hands on things my kids can do in their free time. A bonus is things my girls can do with each other. Activities that encourage imagination and role play together are high, high, high on my list! We’ve used Kinetic Sand before, but I was recently introduced to Kinetic Sand Build…
I don’t know about you, but my daughters are CRAZY for baby dolls. Well, my oldest is kinda getting out of that stage, but every now and then she gets roped back in via her younger sisters, specifically the 1 and 4 year olds. So, I’m excited to share what we have added to our…
I don’t know about you, but sometimes filling the stockings are a bit of a challenge. I mean, we don’t want to fill them with meaningless things, do we? Or candy. Who needs more candy! I’m always looking for fun ideas of things that my children will play with. This year, there are some fabulous…
