This past weekend we had a Family Adventure. In case you are wondering, Family Adventure is a proper noun because any time you willingly spend 4 plus hours driving to a destination (and then spend another 4 plus hours driving back home) with three kids it is worthy of being a properly named occasion. Let…
A couple weekends back, I picked out an outfit that was easy and go with the flow. My husband was out of town and I had to have three kids in two different places at the same time. Running I tell ya! Little did I know that I would received a ton of comments on…
I absolutely love it when my kids find a new book series that captures their attention. I really, really love it when it’s a book series that all three of them can enjoy! Right now that book series is the brand new series Project Droid by authors Nancy Krulik and Amanda Burwasser and illustrator Mike Moran….

I have never really had issues with getting stains out of clothes until I had kids! Grass stains, mud, grease, spaghetti sauce, green beans, and berries are just a few of the things I feel like I am constantly trying to get out of their clothes! Stains are something that really drive me crazy on…
The cooler weather has me thinking about bonfires and s’mores! Anyone else? But we don’t always have time (or the perfect weather) to make a fire and roast s’mores. So we tried out these super easy indoor s’mores and they were a huge hit. The grocery list is short, the mess is minimal and the…
Ever since the newest Star Wars movie came out, my 7-year old daughter has fallen in LOVE with all things Star Wars. Here’s the kicker, she hasn’t seen ANY of the movies. Funny, right? When it came time to pick out her Halloween costume this year, is was a quick decision as soon as she saw what…
Christmas will be here before you know it. Plus, I have my son’s birthday coming November and it’s time to start looking into gifts. I wanted to share an exciting toy that I think your kids would love. Have you ever shot a rubber band? I remember doing this as a kid. Did it go far…
