Do you give your children an allowance? Whether or not to give children an allowance – and then how much to give them – is a topic that I often hear discussed among parents both on and off line. Over the years, my husband and I have gone back and forth, and I hate to…
Hickory Farms – Part of Our Christmas Tradition
Hickory Farms has been a part of my holiday traditions for as long as I can remember. My mom and I would always pick up some sausage and cheese from the Hickory Farms kiosk at the mall, or better yet, order a gift basket to enjoy for even longer. One of my favorite things about…
End-of-Season Soccer Party with WhoNu Cookies!
WhoNu Cookies sponsored this end-of-season soccer team celebration as well as this post, but all thoughts and opinions are my own. Fall soccer season has been over for a few weeks now and I must admit that the first Saturday morning that I was able to sleep in was pretty heavenly. But despite the lack…
How Do Board Games Increase Family Bonding?
Just recently, I talked about how much CandyMan and I loved playing board games when we were dating and in the early years of our marriage. We took a little break from playing many games after we started having kids. We were tired and there were little hands interested in grabbing game pieces and messing…
Convert Your Family Movies to DVD with YesVideo
This post has been sponsored by YesVideo, but all opinions are my own. Watching old home movies is one of our Sunday evening past times. My kids love (and I mean LOVE) seeing themselves and their siblings “way back when.” I love it too (boy, does it take me back!!) but I admit that I…

Although story ideas were provided, all thoughts and opinions are my own. Last night, my kids sat downstairs, gathered around the television. They laughed. They oohed and ahhed. They giggled some more….
A Week of Thanksgiving – A Job
I have a lot to be thankful for. I really do. The problem is….lately I tend to overlook my blessings and focus on the stresses that are so overbearing. When my friend Andrea from Lil-Kids-Things told me about A Week of Thanksgiving, I knew this was an exercise I needed for myself. Today, I am…
Say Anything Family {Review & Giveaway}
We are a game family. When my husband and I were newly married, pre-kids we played games every night to pass the time. We played games when we got together with friends, we played games after dates….and once we started having kids, we played games after the kids went to bed, to wind down. Nowadays,…
Worry Doesn’t Fix Anything #aMillionMoms
What’s your favorite tip for raising a healthy baby? When my first daughter was born, there was so much about being a mother and raising a child that I was completely and utterly clueless about. I had a good example to follow – my mom was (and still is) a fabulous mother. I knew what…
