The Trip: 21 hour roundtrip drive to Denver and back The Vehicle: Subaru, Impreza Co-pilot: Will, my 13 yo I had an adventure! I’ve been dying to write about it for almost a month now but, no time. Today I’m making time because this road trip was insane. It started with a massive order […]
No more guessing with this easy gift wrap calculator! Personalized wrapping paper is always a pleaser. Kids especially LOVE to see their name on things (admit it, you hunted through every souvenir shop display to see if they had a mug or keychain with your name on it…and the right spelling! Melinda’s were so dissed.). […]
I’m not judging. Initially I was judging, but only because all of the stress buying made it harder for me to stress buy MY baby chickens. I’m totally chill now. We bought our first flock, which have all passed on to chicken heaven, when the kids were little. We didn’t plan to buy another flock […]
Fin and Gill say, “Hi.” * * * * * Today’s success: We have milk! And Diet Coke!!! (It’s valuable currency in this family, don’t judge.) I managed to get most of my groceries (with a lot of substitutions and a few “better luck next times”). Isn’t that crazy? I […]
It’s the time of the year to save big on a gym membership! I do have a goal to get more fit, but I won’t be joining a gym this time around. I’d also like to sleep better and make dinner more often, but I probably won’t do those either. There’s just one goal I’m […]
I don’t know why, but the first thing I thought of when I saw this photo of my youngest was the Sasquatch photo. But really, what a fun day for a storm! Especially because we had nowhere to go. Our Thanksgiving started with a family breakfast, and then home to the best snowstorm we’ve had […]
Thanksgiving is almost here and I’m just now thinking about the grocery list — and getting hungry! Everyone has their favorite go-to recipes, so I thought I’d share mine (and please share yours in the comments if you’d like). But first, a throwback to the cutest little baker around: This little guy loved making Pillsbury […]
This is where it started. When we bought the house I thought this bench was such a great idea. Turns out it was a space hog in the tiniest of mud rooms. I HATED the bench. The kids just piled stuff on it, under it, and around it. So we bought this handy shoe thing […]
Are you ready to start planning your holidays? I’ve got the kids table covered! My coloring table runners are always a hit. The best thing about them is their magical ability to keep kids entertained for a long, leisurely meal — but adults love them too! This is a fantastic multi-generational activity that puts everyone […]
I’m entertaining myself tonight by making color palettes. I use palettes like these all the time when I’m designing products. These are going on my Pinterest “Color Palettes” board. I hope they’ll come in handy for someone!
