How to Teach Children Values – Compassion, Kindness, and Generosity #OCCGiving

Wednesday, October 24, 2012 by Lolli

Operation Christmas CHild shoe box

Teaching children to be kind, compassionate, and generous is neither easy nor quick. Values such as generosity and compassion aren’t learned overnight. Every Sunday I am reminded just how tricky it is to teach children values. My 7 year old son rushes into my classroom, where I teach the 3 year olds at church. After…

Monday, September 3, 2012 by Lolli 1 Comment

newborn LOVE shot

I started out my Labor Day sleeping in (one last end of summer indulgence). That was the good part of the day. Then I got some weird idea that it would be fun to head down to the thrift store with Reese and 5 bags of donation toys and clothes. Labor Day is 50% off…

Happy 4th of July! #WW

Tuesday, July 3, 2012 by Lolli 14 Comments

While I was in Philadelphia this weekend, I was able to see some of the most incredible fireworks ever (and we had amazing “seats”)! Philly fireworks blew my socks off, and I had a blast snapping pictures for the entire fireworks show. One of my favorite things to do during fireworks displays is leaving the…

fireworks 4th of july

Ever since I was a little kid, covering my ears to avoid the BOOMS of fireworks, I have loved the Fourth of July (yes, I’ve always loved fireworks despite my sensitive ears). July 4th meant swimming, parks, BBQs, family and friends, and a magnificent fireworks show. I’ve seen Independence Day celebrations in 5 states and…

To all the dads in my life….Happy Father’s Day! I’m being a bad wife and traveling on Father’s Day, leaving my husband home alone with four of our kids (Necco, our 13 year old, just left us to spend the summer at my sister’s house). But he’s man enough to handle it. It’s one of…

jelly bean topiary

I saw some adorable table-top jelly bean topiaries at a dinner my daughters and I attended last month. As I was decorating my house for Easter this week, I thought of those topiaries and wondered if I could make a large topiary with plastic Easter Eggs. I figured it was worth a try. Here’s who…
