With cold weather coming, you are probably ready to warm up in front of your fireplace. Not only will you stay warm, but your house will also heat up without raising your electricity bill. Before you start a fire, however, you must get your fireplace ready for winter. Doing so will protect your home from a house fire. Whether this…
So I know you’ve heard someone complaining (or been the one complaining) that cartoons just aren’t as good as they used to be, right?! It’s so true! Well, I wanted to see if my kids agreed with this, or if they think our cartoons sucked. My husband and I compiled a list of our favorite childhood cartoons and decided to…
Before this summer I had never taken my kid’s on a family camping trip. Call me a bad mom or whatever, but I was terrified of taking 3 littles camping! Well, we finally did it and I definitely don’t regret it. I would do some things differently and pack differently, but we will definitely be doing it again SOON. It…
Nevaeh wanted to have a sleepover for her 14th birthday and we decided to do homemade pizzas, a bonfire, and a movie night. The first step was to figure out what to have for dinner and what snacks to have. We decided on homemade pizzas so the girls could choose their own toppings and have as much (or as little)…
Happy Monday!! I hope everyone had a good weekend. We tried to just relax as much as possible because last week was such a long, busy week for us. Relaxing when you have five kids is a little different than relaxing with no kids, however, so we still stayed a little busy. Friday we had doctors appointments for the kids,…
It’s Friday so I’m here to share some of my favorite pins from the week!! I love all the different ideas that can be found on Pinterest. Lego Zip Line from Little Bins for Little Hands -How cool is this?! My boys LOVE legos and with their age difference (6 years) it’s hard to find things that they both enjoy. I’m…
While we were outside playing today I wanted to do a learning activity with the toddlers. We hadn’t done much all day because Liam had a reaction to eggs and it threw our day off a little while we dealt with that. The kids were using sidewalk chalk so I grabbed a couple pieces myself and wrote out the names…
My 10-year-old came rushing through the door after school a couple weeks ago excited to tell me about his newest school project. The kids in his class each had to choose an animal and create a 3-D figure of it. He already knew what animal he wanted to create and, after a little research on different materials he could use,…
It’s Fri-yay!! Good thing because it’s been A LONG week and I’m exhausted. I wish my husband was home from work already so we could cuddle (AKA, I fall asleep on him). JK because I still have to go shopping for Mother’s Day for my mama. I didn’t realize it was so soon (I know, that’s sad). Oops. Well, while…
Hey everyone!! Summer is so close I can feel it. I want my family to have the BEST summer ever. I say that every year and then lose momentum halfway through the season. I’m trying to avoid doing that this year so I created a Summer Bucket List. Creating it inspired me to create a printable (five, really) for everyone…
