real moms {sharing} all things fabulous
From Halloween until the New Year it seems like we are constantly going to parties or visiting with friends and I like to keep a stash of gifts on the ready. Candles are one of my go-to hostess gifts and a BIC lighter is a perfect complement. Have you seen the all new BIC design…
At this stage of my pregnancy, cleaning my house is not on the top of my priority list. Although it should be, it’s so hard to clean full well knowing that behind me a tornado is happening…and it can’t be avoided. It’s called kids! So, when I do clean, it needs to be efficient and…
We are a visual family. My kids love playing games on my iPad (mostly educational……ish), playing Wii Sports with their dad, and watching their favorite Disney movies over and over. To be honest, with three kids 6 and under, putting on a movie is sometimes the only way to settle things down for a bit….
Now that we’re settled into our new house, I’ve discovered that one of the hardest parts of this move is leaving behind my garden! Normally, at about this time, I would be enjoying those last few fresh tomatoes from our garden, using them for some delicious chili or homemade salsa. But not this year. Instead,…
Christmas is RIGHT around the corner. Today I have a MASSIVE opportunity for you all to enter and hopefully win! Who would like to win a $1,000 shopping spree to Step2.com? All reading this should raise their hands! 🙂 Signing up is simple, and in the process of signing up, you will have the opportunity…
Happy Halloween! We hope you all don’t have the rain like we do here in Michigan…have a safe and fun Halloween!
It’s Halloween today! No better time to share a fantastic “monster” movie with you all! It’s Monsters University and it’s available as of this week for purchase!! Have you seen this movie yet? We did in the theaters as well as at home now…a few times, thanks to the copy we received. We love it! …
As National Breast Cancer Awareness Month draws to a close I thought I’d share another great company who helped raise awareness and funds this month. Kudos to Joseph Nogucci for creating this amazing Pink Ribbon Charmballa bracelet that just arrived in the mail for my wrist wearing pleasure. Unlike most awareness bracelets that are cheaply…
Ok, so this week you know your kiddos are going to be bombarded with the sugar rush, right? I’m not against a piece of candy or two, but I also take it on as my responsibility to ensure they are still getting nourishing meals in on special days like Halloween. This year I decided to…
There’s nothing like getting a homemade card in the mail from a friend or loved one. How creative are you? Even if you aren’t, you can still use Stampin’ UP! I have used Stampin’ UP in the past and have really missed it, so when I got the chance to review their Everyday Occasions kit,…
I think I might like hair accessories more then jewelry. Jewelry is a close second though. I feel like my hair is rather boring at the moment. It needs to be cut and highlighted so badly right now, but I just haven’t had the time to schedule a “team Ginny” hair day at the salon. To bring…
I’m always on the lookout for fabulous shoes. Looks can be SO deceiving though when it comes to shoes! They can look outstanding on the outside, but once you put them on…you quickly return them to the shelf and move on. I have had that happen one too many times. The shoes just aren’t comfortable….
