We try to spoil our teachers once a week with a small gift and my girls and I love coming up with new ideas! Sonic is a given and we do use that once a month or so…but handmade fun useful items are my personal fav. I used my HP Envy 5530 Wireless Printer to […]

Why I hate Easter Egg Hunts

I was once a child who loved Easter Egg hunts. I loved the thrill of searching for a prize egg, and a healthy dose of competition is great for everyone, right? I couldn’t wait until my kids were old enough to enjoy one of their own, but sadly as they get older, I realize how […]

And just like that, she’s 10!

I can’t begin to unfold the emotions about my daughter turning 10. T-E-N! Those ten years have flown by so quickly. I remember her long awaited arrival via 15 hour inducing. I can close my eyes and see her sweet little chunky body all curled up in the bassinet. It’s heart wrenching.  The memories that […]
