Pin itWhen it comes to kids clothing, I like to buy things that not everyone out there has. I don’t want to send my child to school in the same outfit that every other child has. Recently, I saw a company online that their clothing and their entire style really sparked my interest: Bit’z Kids… [Continue Reading]
Pin itWe love to grill out any chance that we get, rain or shine. I was always told that if you have a truly good steak, you don’t need a dipping sauce for it – it just needs to be marinated and cooked properly. We had the chance to try out some things from Lawry’s… [Continue Reading]
Pin itIt doesn’t matter what your age is, there are games that are made for any age, literally.

We received a game that has truly… [Continue Reading]

Pin it We travel a lot. We travel by car as well as by plane. While everyone tries to travel lightly, we still want our little ones to be comfy. If we are on a long flight, the kids like to be comfy, but as a mom, I don’t want my kids (or myself) to… [Continue Reading]

Pin it We live in a 1900 home. Our only assumption about our house is that our upstairs used to be an attic that some previous owners converted in to 3 small bedrooms. It’s that, or the house is so old that there never was air conditioning up there. With this said, we have no… [Continue Reading]
Pin itWe snack a lot in our home, but we do not buy sweet and fattening snacks. Well, I do from time to time buy cookies, but don’t tell hubby; he’s been trying to figure out if/where I hide things. I have to hide snacks (sweet or healthy!) because hubby will come in and snag… [Continue Reading]
Pin itWhen we grill out, I have to say that the number one thing that is requested is hot dogs; by me as well as the kids. Hot Dogs are a must when we cook out, or cook in! I grew up with one brand and have stuck with that brand to this day; up… [Continue Reading]

Pin itI have a confession to make. I have been using a BlackBerry for a few days now and I have fallen in love. When I first heard about BlackBerry, I thought “Ah, those are too big, too bulky, just for business people; so why do I want one?” I had to see it first… [Continue Reading]
Pin itFor those that know me (in real life, or even through my blog readings), you may see that I have a photo obsession. I love creating memories. I love capturing memories.

Pin itWith all our outside adventures, cook out’s and travels, I have thought about where we would put Kambry to eat. She can sit by us, but if she had a travel highchair, that would be even easier for us to feed her and better for her to be able to feed herself. We have… [Continue Reading]
Pin it We have a small sandbox that grandma found for the kids way back when at a garage sale. Aren’t sales just awesome?! When we got it, we thought about what we would fill the sandbox with. I didn’t want to get just ‘plain sand’. When I heard that Crayola had a new product… [Continue Reading]
