real moms {sharing} all things fabulous
While I hardly believe any momma should just get *one* day of pampering from her family, I just had to share some great ideas for Mother’s Day with our readers! I introduced Herbal Grace Creations to you this winter (see my original review HERE), and I just fell in love with their philosophy in…
Does it seem like Easter has become overly an overly commercial holiday? For weeks now, all of the grocery stores have their center aisles stocked with toys, sweet treats, and Easter baskets piled up to the ceiling. Now don’t get me wrong, we love a good Easter Egg Hunt and we totally do the Easter…
One of my favorite days of the year is the day they bring out all of the Easter treats at the supermarket. So many wonderful confections in so many beautiful pastel colors. It’s like a magical candy rainbow. And what Easter basket would be complete without the household favorite many, many, MANY years running? You…
Planning a birthday party where the guest list includes both boys and girls and varying ages can prove to be quite difficult. Or, at least, makes this mom reach deep into those creative depths. After weeks of tossing around theme ideas, I finally landed on it :: T-Shirts and Tattoos! And my {newly turned} 6…
As much as I love to receive flowers, the frugal part of me cringes when they die and I throw them away. I think Chocolate Flowers is a combination of my favorite things and I get to eat the flowers when I’m done enjoying them. Don’t be trying that with a real bouquet of flowers!…

And if you celebrate Easter, I’m sure you have thought about what goodies you will be making, er…partaking of, on the 20th of April. Outside of the REAL reason for Easter, candy and the bunny are a…
Planning a party and hosting a party are difficult feats in and of themselves. Holy cow does it take a lot to pull off a fabulous one! I was recently given the task of creating a DisneySide party and I took the task on with a smile. Having a house full of kiddos, I jumped…
My oldest daughter will be in kindergarten next year. How did that happen?! While I’m fretting about not seeing my baby girl *all day*, she is bouncing off the walls excited about getting to be in school with the big kids, not have to take a nap with her little sisters, and of course, get…
A few weeks ago, I shared this fab little number from Tara Lynn’s Boutique. My 18 month old is runway-ready. Honestly, I could not resist that cute little zebra print skirt. But for my older two, I was thinking about how cute they would look on Easter Sunday in their pastel prints from Tara Lynn’s….
Do you have a children that loves to dance? I know my two children love to. My daughter loves to dance and will be starting dance soon. Costume Discounters has a wide variety of costumes to play dress up and pretend. Not only do they have that but they have dance wear as well. With…
My little man turned 4 this week. He is my charmer, my snuggly bug, my little cheerleader (in a very masculine way, of course). Not a day goes by that he doesn’t say to me, “Mom, you’re beautiful!” or “Mom, you are AWESOME!” Most of the time he has no clue how much his words…
There is just something special about your child’s first birthday and for the past month I have found myself spending several hours planning out that important day. It’s hard to believe my little man is ONE already! Where has the time gone? I wanted everything to be perfect for this birthday party… after all, a…
