Easter Center Pieces
With Easter sandwiched between spring break and the end of the year festivities it’s easy to let it sneak up on you! My kids had Easter parties at school this week and I was given the job of adding some decorations to the tables. Table decorating for events is one of my favorite things to…

A Good Friday Reflection
I’ve spent several moments reflecting on the events of Holy Week. Today is Good Friday – the day we remember the sacrifice Jesus made on the cross for our sins. As my faith grows and I study more, I am overwhelmed with grief and sorrow thinking of the pain and suffering Jesus went through in…

Foodie Vows and Parenting
Matt and I love food. We love to try new recipes, enhance old ones, and sometimes we like to play the critic and say how our own new recipes could have gone better. It’s something we’ve always loved to do, it’s actually something we VOWED to do. That’s right, cooking together was a promise we…

Queso Dip and Party Platter
Look no further for your next platter idea! I’ve got one for you and anyone in your family that loves carbs and cheese dip! I recently attended a Gal-entine’s party where we had to bring our own charcuterie/platter style dish. I was really unsure of what to bring but settled just a few nights before…

Valentine’s Day Self-Care Basket for Teachers
I love spoiling my kids’ teachers with little goody baskets throughout the year! It’s a great way to personalize gifts and items teachers will actually use! Last year I went to Target and found cute candles and small succulents that fit in a $5 woven hanging planter. I added some shredded paper, a face mask,…

Quick Quip: Post-Holiday W(h)ines
The day following a holiday break is always a major struggle for me, and today — three days after Thanksgiving — is no different. My one year old was up at 5:30am, the kids were ready to see their friends at school, and I was even ready to have them out of the house (can…

Thanksgiving: Big and Small
This year our Thanksgiving crowd was quite small. Thanksgiving has always been me and Matt’s favorite holiday so we have always offered to host. In 2019, I could look around the table and see my husband, Jackson, Hudson, my mom and dad, my brother, and Matt’s dad. This year Maddux is now old enough to…

Blood Type: Competitive
My 5 year old son, Jackson, just recently joined a soccer league. I signed him up, purchased his overpriced uniform, and updated my digital planner with his weekly practice and his Friday night games. At first I thought, this is a great opportunity for him to meet new kids and gain some athletic skills along…

Jurassic World Trunk or Treat
Halloween has come and gone and I’ve learned to love to celebrate it with my kiddos. I just love to see their faces light up in amazement at the spooky decorations. Last year at the preschool’s annual Trunk or Treat event Maddux was just 10 days old when we rolled up the school and put…

The Strand of Strength
Matt and I are celebrating seven (yes, 7) years of marriage this week! What a time it’s been for us! This past weekend we celebrated with a fancy dinner at Goblin Market in Mount Dora. Yesterday we took a trip to a local golf course to shoot a terrible game of golf and then rewarded…
