Sometimes You Just Need a Mommycation!

We got a phone call two weeks ago from our builder telling us the house will not be ready by our agreed upon closing date after all.  Closing on the house was pushed back until the end of the month.  Boo! We currently live with my sister and her family of 5 in a two […]

Why is my 3 year old freaking out?!?!

Wow… so the past couple nights have been something else! My three year old is really giving me crap at bed time.  The other night it took him two hours to go to sleep!  Jumping on the bed, throwing his stuff, trying to go tackle big brother, and just being a total maniac! First of […]

Baby Gender Reveal Cake Party!

No, it’s not my baby reveal party.  It is my sisters.  Just had to clarify that before going any further! Ha!  My sister likes to do things old school… she doesn’t like to find out what she is having, she does not like to get induced, and she does not like to have an epidural. […]

Cheesy, Spinach, Spaghetti Squash!

Spaghetti squash is so yummy and can be cooked so many different ways!  We have been cutting down on carbs lately and trying to eat more veggies!  Spaghetti squash is a great carb substitute!  We regularly use it in place of pasta in our spaghetti.  So yum! This recipe has been floating around pinterest lately […]

10 Ways to Get Active with Your Kids!

Trying to be active as a family can be daunting!  I have not been great at it in the past, but have set my goals much higher this year!  Previously, we would all work on being active on our own;  I would take kickboxing and zumba classes at the gym, Danny would run, and the […]

Broccoli, Grape, Pasta Salad

This is the perfect dish for your next gathering or pot luck.  It makes a lot, is served cold, and is delicious!  The bacon is awesome in it and even my brother-in-law went back for thirds. All three of my boys are playing sports this season and we have 4 games a week, plus practices. […]
