Wordless Wednesday {Happy Valentine’s Day}

Hope everyone has had a wonderful Valentine's Day this year!! I started the day by frosting over 50 cupcakes for the boys Valentine's Day. Hubby said he'd go into work late to help me bring them all in. To my surprise he went in late because he had a contractor that helped build the house here at 8am. He's having him finish our fireplace and mantle. I'm super excited because the stone is going to … [Read more...]

Lovable Labels {Friendship Packs} Review & Giveaway

  I've been using Lovable Labels for years. They are so much easier then scribbling a name on something and chancing it falling off or removed or using a permanent marker and making a mark that isn't pretty and can't be removed.

Mod Straps {Camera Straps, Cap Savers, & Bags} Review & Giveway

I wanted you to be able to search for a recipe, craft, or review and find is easily. I … [Read more...]

Meet Charlie. His Story.

This time last week a dog was no where on our radar. Well, at least not mine. It all started Saturday. My husband woke up and announced he was done sitting home. He couldn't handle it any longer. My husband had surgery last Monday and was down for the count recovering. He is a workaholic and was dying just sitting around. We all got ready and decided to run some errands. Remember that fridge we … [Read more...]

Valentine’s Day Giant Heart Cookie {Quick & Easy Dessert}

On Superbowl Sunday we signed up to bring a dessert and we made the Giant Heart Cookie from Wilton.
