Our son is now three years old. He is in that stage where he is outgrowing his baby stuff but still too young to really settle on a definite style in his room. It’s the age when you find yourself looking for creative ways to add color and fun to their room, but...The Day I Really, Truly Realized I Was Getting Married
We recently finally got around to getting our favorite wedding photo printed and it was bringing back memories of that day and all the hustle and bustle beforehand. It was both an exciting and a difficult time for myself and many of the bridal party. I had recently...Giving Kids the Nutrition They Need
Children learn a lot by observing the habits of their parents and other adults. As a parent, you want to take whatever steps are necessary to assure that your child gets the vitamins and nutrients they need to stay healthy and active. It is often difficult to get kids...{Pinteresting} Pilgrim Hat Cookies
I first saw the Pilgrim Hats in my Facebook feed when a friend shared the recipe and I thought they were adorable and clever. Since then, I have come across numerous variations on Pinterest. I decided to keep it simple with cookies, peanut butter cups, and icing. The...Give Cold Dogs Some Comfort this Holiday Season
“Angels for Animals” sponsors have helped PETA build and deliver doghouses to dogs often in desperate need for more than a decade.

I spent a lot of time on the humor boards this past week. I didn’t want to get too caught up in Pinterest, because I had a ton of work to get done. Not one of more productive, project-inspiring Pinteresting posts, but we all need a good laugh now and then. Here...Making the best of a road trip with Little Passports Travel Tips
“Are we there yet?” was a term coined by the family road trip! While new technology and toys may have silenced backseat conversations, spending time together in the car can still be a great opportunity for family bonding and learning. Even if you plan on bringing the...{Pinteresting} What I Pinned This Week ~ Oct 27 to Nov 2
This week I was in the mood to start a new knitting project. I’ve been spending so much time looking at black yarn for a project I should have been done with already, that I was craving a change. I didn’t actually start anything new… but I had fun...The Halloween Witch
Each year they parade her about…the traditional Halloween Witch. Misshapen green face, stringy scrapes of hair, and a toothless mouth beneath her disfigured nose. Gnarled, knobby fingers twisted into a claw, protracting from a bent and twisted torso that lurches...Protect yourself and your family with React!
Okay, so I’m going to be up front with you all… I was contacted directly to ask for help in promoting a new app. As a blogger, I get these sort of requests multiple times every day… apps, businesses, books, and the like. Most days I do a perfunctory...{Witty Wednesday} Group Therapy
It’s October. Time for the Halloween funnies! Let’s start off with a little group therapy…How to Choose Baby Shoes
Your little one is crawling, pulling herself up and holding on to furniture and she’s beginning to cruise along the tables and couches. It’s time for her first pair of shoes. If you’re thinking of those white, leather high-topped shoes with the stiff soles, shove them...History of Games
Board games have a long history. We can presume that the first games were created when human life became settled enough to enjoy leisure time and not focus entirely on survival. Games also serve a purpose beyond entertainment: they are a great way to teach and learn,...From Soda to Tea
I very recently gave up soda. (Yes… again.) It has been a hard habit for me to break. I was looking for alternatives to drink, because I tend to get a bit bored with water. I try to avoid adding anything to my water and I don’t want to waste calories...Message to My Teenager
A friend of mine recently shared this to her profile on Facebook. Though my son is nowhere near a teenager just yet, I thought it was worth sharing for those who are already there. There’s some great… and sometimes humorous… advice in this list. 1....Get th’ grub ‘n spiced rum! ‘Tis the hour to celebrate!

Look around the room you are sitting in right now. When was the last time you thought about the origins of everyday objects… things we often take for granted because it feels as though they’ve always been there? It’s crazy to think about it, but even...
