real moms {sharing} all things fabulous
Halloween is tomorrow and both my kids are so excited to get all dressed up in their costumes! Neither of them realize that tomorrow is a day that they will probably receive more candy than they need to eat, but they are excited to wear their costumes and get to see what everyone else is…
Now that all the trunk or treat events have (mostly) happened, it’s time to get on with the trick or treating! I did a little deep web dive to find some of the local times in the Greater Grand Rapids area. Let me know if you are looking for more times, or if you have…
Within the past year or so my family has really started to enjoy some of the channels we have found on YouTube. With kids aged 2, 7, and 10 we are still VERY conscious of what content they get to watch on YouTube, but there are a few channels that they enjoy that I have…
There are so many tee shirt shops out there and are unique in their own way. One of my favorites and that stands out is Halo Collective. Why it stands out to me is the fact that I know she puts her heart in soul into each design. I love the fact that she creates…

Breakfast has become a favorite meal for both my kids! My kids eat three meals a day, but I can always count on breakfast being one that they will eat a good, solid meal! I love this because I know it’s a great way to start their day! Most days during the week they either…
We saw the Disney on Ice show last night and it was an experience of a lifetime for a few reasons. 🙂 Dream Big is officially my favorite of the Disney on Ice shows that I have seen. I’m so glad it was such a wonderful show because we went way out of our comfort…
Cleaning my house has evolved considerably since I first ventured out on my own. What used to be a couple loads of laundry each week and running the vacuum if the floors got really bad has morphed into what feels like a full time job around here. I used to be the type of person…
I know I cannot possibly be the only mom whose Halloween costume effort falls somewhere between making an elaborate hand stitched princess costume and cutting a couple eye holes out of the oldest sheet in the linen closet…. With Halloween just over a week away here are some easy last minute ideas to save the…
This is a sponsored post on behalf of Carbona. All opinions are my own. You guys. It was a wet and rainy weekend here. Ugh. A weekend of muddy soccer! While the kids don’t mind playing in the rain, I’m not a huge fan of the muddy clean up! So of course my son had to…
