I used to enjoy wearing jeans. Then I had 5 kids. My body shape changed. My size changed. And jeans didn’t fit me the same way anymore. It has been a while since I have put on a brand new pair of jeans and felt instantly at home, but that’s exactly how I felt when…
Fijit Friends Playdate
Last week, I drove my kids up to my sister’s house for a special playdate. This was no ordinary playdate. This one included colorful necklaces and bracelets (one of which caused a mid-afternoon melt-down that made my niece absent from a bunch of the shots…), lots of music, a sparkly microphone, and two Fijit Friends™…
Can You Read This?
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Zenni Optical for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. I somehow escaped a family history of bad eyes. Grandpa was an optometrist and everyone in the family needed glasses. Lucky profession. I still have relatively perfect vision, except for my astigmatism. My kids, on…
Monte Carlo – Summer Movie With My Girls!
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Monte Carlo for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. Summer break is my favorite time to check out movies in the theater. With the kids off school and the day time hours free, plus the fact that we are always looking for ways to…
Take Your Pix Board Book Albums Review
Way back when, I was an avid scrapbooker. I still have the stickers and the paper and the gel pens to prove it. However, my scrapbooking partner moved, my life got busier, I started blogging…..and scrapbooking fell to the way side. I didn’t realize how much I missed it until I got my…

Family Movie Night Returns
My son once asked me if TVs were invented when I was a kid. Yes, son, in fact TVs have been around much longer than Mom. I actually watched quite a bit of TV when I was growing up (a fact that my kids have a hard time accepting, since we currently don’t have TV…
Allergy-Friendly Living
I wrote this post while participating in a blog tour conducted by Clever Girls Collective on behalf of Claritin®. I have been compensated for my time commitment to the program. When I was growing up in Northern California, I had the occasional itchy eye or fits of sneezing. But I never considered my allergies a…
Who Says Costumes Are Only for Halloween?
One of my favorite new-to-me traditions on the 4th of July is capturing unique photos of fireworks. Ever since I can remember, both as a child and as a parent, I have spent July 4th watching fireworks. We usually head a few miles away to the County Fairgrounds, where they put on quite an impressive…
Future Friendly with Tide and P&G
I do a LOT of laundry at my house. I was hoping that laundry would slow down after my babies grew up and stopped having twice-daily blow-outs, but I have been disappointed in that regard. Sadly, as kids get bigger, so do their clothes AND their messes. The laundry seems to keep growing, and so…
