Creative Way to Hang Your Christmas Cards!
Every year I go through the same thing. WHERE am I going to stick all the Christmas cards?!?! See I don't really have anywhere to stand them. My husband would kill me if I stuck thumb tacks all over the walls so they left me to taping them in the doorways. It looked great but come every January I cringed taking them down praying to God that the stain didn't come off with the tape and I'd live to … [Read more...]
The Absent Parent
It wasn’t that I had a bad parent, I just had a young parent. Actually both my parents are young. My mom was only a junior in high school when she had me and she, herself, grew up in a horrible home life setting. Her father was absent and her mom was mentally absent.

Yet every year I have a list of wants but I can just never be the type of girl to say this, this, and this when it concerns me. Why is that? When it comes to ou kids we can usually tell each family member a list for each child and make sure that no one gets duplicates. Tell them … [Read more...]

Quality Kid Winter Coats! Four Brands Compared Side By Side!
For the entire lifespan of my kids lives I've been buying their coats from the same place year after year. Even when grandparents have insisted on buying their coats I have made sure that they came from that same store. After a couple years I didn't even really put thought into it. The cold came off I went to get their coats. When I started blogging it was great because this company was one I … [Read more...]
SpongeBob’s Kitchen Mission Cookbook
It's no secret that we're SpongeBob fans in this house. Anything that concerns him gets Gavin's attention.
