Since the moment these placemats arrived I've been DYING to share them with you. But I was holding firm to the Valentine surprise for the girls. Then it occurred to me that I COULD share them, because my little girls may be proficient on an iPad, but they sure don't read this blog yet!!! How amazing are these!?!? I may be biased since they show my own little family, but...
Normally this post would have fallen under {home & garden} for parties, however, I happen to think this would be fun to do even for a play date or weekend activity, or even a family photo shoot. So I decided to post it in {family fun}. One of the activities I chose to do at the girls Three Ring Circus Birthday last year was a Photo Booth. I checked into...
Who do you want to be when you grow up?? I love the stage the girls are at right now. It is just one big playtime of imaginary fun! And these costume sets by Melissa & Doug are AWESOME! All three girls received them from my very "in the know mom" sister. The girls had played with some on a visit to their cousins last fall, and the kids were...
This is not the post I had planned for today. But as luck would have it, I forgot my camera that I kinda needed to take the photos to go with the planned (and written) post. Ugh. But all is OK, because I'll get that one up later Thursday, and can post instead about some girlie hair bows that I've mean meaning to share with your for months! I have...
I'm amazed at how great kids games are these days. I remember spending road trips getting to play Donkey Kong Jr for hours, but I'm pretty sure it didn't teach me anything other then jumping over a barrel. But NOW, my 2 year old can put puzzles together. My 1 year learns words on flash cards, and my 3 year is taking care of a fish tank. They do a...
I know people think I'm being super creative sometimes, but the reality is, I'm selfish. Selfish and juggling kids most of the time. So a lot of the time when I'm asked to help out with something or to contribute to an event, I usually try to think of something that would be helpful to ME. See SELFISH?! OK, but there IS a reason for it. I usually find that...
I have an A.M.A.Z.I.N.G baby sister (can I say "baby" sister when we are in our 30s??) Anywhoo, she is. I could go on for days as to why I think she is one of the best and most talented human beings on this planet. For now, I'm just going to point you to her Pinterest page (hair, fashion, design, party ideas, food, etc). Have you heard of Pinterest?? Oh...
{This giveaway is now closed. Winner was notified via email. Congrats #38 Kelly S.!} It's no secret that I love Halsea. The clutches, the tote bags, the luggage....well, pretty much anything Halsea makes me happy. Why do I love it so, you ask? Because it WORKS. Because it DOES what it's SUPPOSED to do. Because it LOOKS GOOD doing it. Again, because it WORKS! Here's an example. I've had this...
I know you're all so tired of me mentioning holiday cards. YOU: "What the heck is she talking about?? It isn't even Halloween and she is shoving Holiday cards down our throats!' ME: "I know, I know! Please forgive me! I just personally can't pass up saving money when it's something I KNOW I need to buy anyway, and it's a vendor I was ALREADY planning on shopping with..." So...
So who got their holiday cards ordered yesterday??? Did some of you get up this morning, slowly waking up over your coffee, trying to figure out what day it was.....then all of a sudden remembered that you FORGOT to take advantage of the Minted promotion?? Panic hit you, didn't it? OK no worries! I've got your back. You've got a second chance with Tiny Prints. They have fabulous options for...
