play creatively
I have to give full credit to my cousin Crystal for this summer fun idea. For the Mudpuppy giveaway she commented: “So this summer me and the kids made a summer fun jar so I don’t have to be as creative everyday. Each week they pick out an outing, a food to make, and an …
Happy Monday friends! I had so much fun at the last meet and greet at Soel that I’ve decided to do it again! So if, like me, you will be heading to Provo tomorrow evening stop in and say hello. I’m hearing that the first fifty to the door get prizes…and each blogger will be …
Last week A and I met up with with one of his newly favorite friends (and his super cool mom, whose awesome idea this was!) for the most perfect play date. Together we made custom painted plates for Father’s Day at Color Me Mine, a DIY ceramic painting studio. We actually had the dad’s with …
I’m trusting you all had a lovely Mother’s Day weekend. I was spoiled. Jon and the boys made me sweet fruit crepes for breakfast (SO perfect and yummy!) and then savory ham, mushroom and cheddar cheese crepes for lunch (to die for). The littles showered me with home made cards which are a mother’s dream. …
Mom’s are the best, right? And although we should be celebrating them on a daily basis, I’m so glad we have a specific day set aside to show the mother’s in our lives just how much we really appreciate all that they do for us. Well, Mother’s Day is just 3 days away which leaves …

I hope all of you had a most lovely holiday weekend. We are stuffed to the gills with delicious chocolates, candies and…well, more chocolate, and more candy! Every year I try to go for less candy and it seems like every year we end up with just a bit more than the year before (I …
Are you running around crazy realizing that you have yet to purchase Easter candy, egg dye and various other Easter hunt amenities, and have absolutely no idea what your Littles will be wearing on Easter Sunday? If so, you’re not alone. I’m right there with you. But I can help…at least just a little bit. …
I wanted to do something simple and fun for Easter baskets this year that I could use over and over again. We love using our bunny nesting dolls to place little snacks and treats in and then hide away in a grand Easter hunt. This has become a special tradition for the boys and they …
After Jon and I had been married for a few years Jon’s parents went on a trip to Europe. Knowing our love of theater, puppeteering and European toys in general, they returned home with two pop-up puppets for us. I have loved having them around (as have the boys) and have often looked over at …
