Are our house, we are always looking forward to the next party, event, or get together. When my kids know it is getting close to a birthday or holiday they will anxiously and relentlessly ask, “How many more days until _____?” One way I have managed this is by downloading an app for my phone…

Pick Your Battles
“Pick your battles.” This was important advice from mom and dad while growing up. I didn’t realize that I would need this advice more than ever as a parent. I am learning -more and more as my kids get older – that picking your battles is an act of patience and love. Picking Your Battles…
Sundaes on Sunday
Sundaes on Sunday Costco’s Kirkland brand ice cream is the BEST (seriously) ice cream I have ever bought from the store. It is serious goodness. It is all natural and is delightful. Each sundae starts with a couple of scoops of ice cream. (Mine might start with a few scoops :)). Everyone picks the toppings…
Hip Hip Hop Easter Printable
Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about Easter and getting the house decorated for Easter. I’ve been trying to think of some cute Easter sayings and I keep getting stumped. I can’t think of anything clever. The Easter saying I keep coming back to is “hippity hop”. Whenever I hear “hippity hop” I think of…
St. Patrick’s Day Green Breakfast Food
I wasn’t planning on doing anything special for St. Patrick’s Day today, but woke up with some unusual Saturday motivation. This motivation is especially surprising because I’ve been sick all week.

Cap’n Crunch French Toast
Oh my gosh. This recipe was soooo good. Especially for a breakfast-loving girl like me. My BFF was telling me a story once that included a reference to Cap’n Crunch French Toast and knew it was something I would need to try. The french toast was delicious you didn’t need to use butter or syrup,…
Easy Easter Decor with Pom Pom’s
I think I could be happy with my house decorated in sparkles and bright colors, but then my “I’m an adult” side kicks in and I realize that is only acceptable on the holidays. Thank you holidays. Decorating for Easter doesn’t get any easier than this. I saw these bright, spring colored pom pom’s at…
Easter Egg Decor with Apothecary Jars
I have so much fun decorating for the holidays. I love that not only is it socially acceptable to decorate with polka dots, glitter, and pastels – it is encouraged! Easy Easter Decorations I started my decor this year with the apothecary jars I have been using for some of the other holiday decorations I’ve…
Easter Grass DIY Spring Decor
Easter Decorating Idea I was immediately inspired by this beautiful Easter centerpiece I saw on Pinterest. The site that the inspiration came from teaches you how to make real Easter grass. I think that would be fun one year, but for this project I went with the artificial, can’t-mess-up route. This project ended up being…
