Being on the east coast this year we are looking at some cold days ahead and spending some good time indoors over that Thanksgiving week. Which means I’ll need some creative ideas to lure my kids away from the TV. Thank goodness for Pinterest and my readers who always give me such great ideas! I’ve started a Thanksgiving Craft board to keep those kiddos busy and hopefully give you a little break! Replenish that craft box of yours!…

I love taking pictures. My children can vouch for that as I document Everything happening in their lives at any given moment.

With my terrible track record Halloween 2015 along with my 1000’s upon 1000’s of other well documented events would live, where else, right on my computer, forever. Until now…

Because by the time the 31st rolls round our pumpkin has turned to mush and mold. Which definitely fits the bill for spooky and scary but well, it’s just plain gross. Luckily I came across a post on Facebook about how to preserve your pumpkin and was so intrigued that I had to give it a whirl…

Bathtime is a big part of our evening wind down routine. I love using some aromatherapy to soothe my kids at bathtime (great for Moms, too!!). I’m going to share some of my favorite aromatherapy tips and tricks soon, but today I’m talking about a very simple way to kick it up a notch for your little ones in the bathtub.
