Hard to believe Fourth of July is just around the corner, this year is flying by! It's one of my favorite holidays and just like with most everything, it's even more exciting with kids:) Last year, was the first time we celebrated the Fourth of July at our cabin up north and it was THE best, probably because it's 30 degrees cooler up there;) We'll be celebrating at the cabin again this year and I ...

Brooklyn Turns 3
Let's flamingle! That was the theme of Brooklyn's 3rd birthday party this year. When I asked her what kind of party she wanted, she told me a mingo/kitty/ice cream party, lol! We finally decided on a flamingo/pool party and she was thrilled. This was such a fun party to plan. For the decor I decided to go with lots of bright pinks, corals and golds. I just love the way it turned out and more ...

When it comes to Easter baskets for the kiddos, I really enjoy thoughtfully selecting special goodies for each one. We are trying to be more intentional about the gifts we give them, going for the less is more, quality over ...
