real moms {sharing} all things fabulous
Happy Thanksgiving week! You may be reading this post as you take a quick break from preparing for Thanksgiving festivities. My family is actually doing something different this year. We are road tripping it to southern California to visit the Great Wolf Lodge. We had FRIENDSGIVING on Saturday instead. It was my first time hosting…
Christmas is almost here….in what 30 days. Who is ready? I know I am. I am prepared and ready to go. Getting my shopping done early so I can enjoy my December. Have you done your shopping for your holiday attire? Planning your outfit for holiday parties can be tough. Why not make it easy…
The very first thing I prepare for Christmas is our holiday card. It gets my full attention before the busyness of the Christmas season sets in. I like to be one of the first people to grace mailboxes with our Christmas card. I’m too much at times, but I try for a well-timed December 1st…
If you haven’t figured it out yet, you don’t have to buy everything for your wedding day. As a matter of fact, most of your wedding needs can be rented, such as tents, plates, chairs and even your wedding reception long table. This will help you from burning through your funds, and you won’t be…

Your kids love the costumes and treats that come along with Halloween. But what about your pets? They, too, can join in on the fun. Celebrating Halloween with your pets is a fun way for the whole family to get involved. But how exactly do you go about this? Here are some easy ways you…
For many, Halloween is a fun time with family and friends and looked at as a time to get together and run around. The past few years I have noticed more and more of an addition to the costume game at Halloween time. PETS DRESSING UP! Have you participated? I’ve always thought it was super…
Here’s the thing, I love to decorate our house, but it’s from 1985 – complete with popcorn ceilings. It’s not old enough to have character or vintage vibes, but not new enough to look clean and neat. While we’ve improved some aspects of our home (kitchen & living room), there’s a lot spaces that need…
Have you started to think about Halloween costumes? I like to plan ahead so we can hopefully avoid the overpriced, picked over costumes. Way back in 2015 my Charlie was Olaf for Halloween. I just pulled out the costume this week to pass on to a friend and it prompted me to check the price….
