  • PLANNING a BLUE SPARKLY BIRTHDAY PARTY

    Mya turns 3 in less than a month and she definitely has more opinions in the party planning than the past two birthdays. Whenever I drop her off at preschool, she usually…

  • PONY BEAD SUN CATCHERS

    With little effort, these turned out pretty cool. I won’t lie, though: They sat on our counter for a good month before I finally sanded them down and drilled a hole in…

  • MYA’S ROOM

    Welcome to Mya’s room. As she is growing up way too fast and her room will also be ever-changing, it’s fun to document her little space. It’s difficult for me to pinpoint a specific “theme”…

    After living in our home for almost four years, I’m finally getting our master bedroom put together. It’s not complete (not that I ever will think it will be!), but one…

  • HEART DAY HIGHLIGHTS

    Everyone familiar with the movie “Tangled” (ie Rapunzel)? Ok, good. Well, when Mya woke up to her “heart attack” on Valentines’ Day, she claimed the “mean lady” came into her room…

  • LITTLE LOVE BOOKS

    I can’t say I’m much of a reader otherwise, but I love kid books. Bonus points go to rhyming and beautiful illustrations. Here are some of my favorite lovey dovey books to…

  • SALAD SPINNER PAINTINGS

    Am I the only one that wants it to snow a boatload? I just want to get out and play in some snow! But I digress… “Salad spinner paintings” are exactly what you think. We…
