I just love this new Ombre Romper that I made for my little girl! The “Ombre” look or the “graduated color” look is one of my favorite ways to tie dye. I was recently given the Tulip One-Step Tie Dye Kit and I just love it! It came with 5 different colors …
It’s time for the Project Party! If you missed last week here is a wrap up of some of the projects that were linked up! I am in the 4th of July mode now and it looks like a lot of you all are too!!! but first… Hani from Craftionary does it again by rounding …
Since its summertime I am always on the lookout for something creative and fun to do with my little girls. One thing that my friend did for them last year was to take them to get a mani/ pedi for their birthdays. They had so much fun with that, but they knew that that …
I am so excited to share these Accessory Frames with you all! Plaid recently sent me a box full of Plaid products as inspiration to make a project (so awesome!). I instantly thought of making some accessory holders for my 3 girls’ plethora of hair and jewelry items. All the supplies I used can be found …
My daughter that just LOVES watermelon was very pleased with her birthday “cake”. Last week you may remember that I posted about Heather from A Cupcake Love Affair’s Watermelon Fruit-Cake that she linked up the week before. Well, I DID get to make one for my daughter’s birthday and I think it turned out great! …
During the day our living room has great lighting. We have a BIG window that lets in lots of light. During the night it’s a different story. The little lamps with the 60 watt bulbs on either side of the couch are the only source of light in that room (other than the flicker of …

There is nothing like gardening on a sunny day like today was. I love being able to get my hands dirty and teach my girls all about the wonder of nature. It’s even better when we have something refreshing to drink while we are gardening. That is why my girls and I decided to plant …
I am always on the hunt for recipes that are equally easy to make and delicious. This Honey Mustard Chicken with Campbell’s Soup is definitely both delicious and easy! The cream of chicken soup really makes the sauce very creamy and the flavor mixes well with the honey mustard. Plus, it comes together in around …
So how am I doing on the Champions For Kids Jennie-O Make the Switch Challenge? In my original post about Making the Healthy Switch I shared how I was willing to give up chips this month and use the money I saved to give to kids in need. I am glad to say that we have …
How is the manual setting working for you? Have you started to get the hang of it? This is part three of our trilogy of Aperture, ISO and Shutter Speed. Shutter Speed is exactly how it sounds…. it controls the speed in which the shutter opens and closes. The longer it stays open …
You may remember last week when I talked about Champion for Kids Jennie-O Make the Switch Challenge and how I had given up buying chips for the month of May. The whole challenge is about giving up something that is not really healthy and switching it for something healthier. Then you can use the …
For the last several weeks I have been baking like crazy. I am not really sure why (other than my sweet tooth), but I think you’ll be glad that I did! This recipe stemmed from my love of Cookie Dough and a recipe that I shared a few weeks ago for a “Not-So-Raw” cookie dough …
There is nothing better than sitting on my porch in the afternoon while watching my kids play around the yard (for recess)! Well, unless you include some yummy Mocha Iced Coffee, then it’s even better! I often start to drag after 1 o’clock and this ritual has become the perfect “pick me up”. Other than the …
I am so excited about this picture frame! I think it turned out super cute!!! I thought of making this frame because we have a small wall by our front door that was looking very plain. I thought that a new picture frame would really make the space pop! Plus I always look for ways …
