I’ll be spending time with my family over the next week or so, so I don’t plan on posting much here with the exception of features from my last Thrifty to Nifty Thursdays. This is our Christmas Card I DIY’ed on PicMonkey – I love that site, even though I have Photoshop Elements I still {…Continue Reading}
I’ve been watching all the Elf on the Shelf antics over the last couple of years, and this year I decided to dip my toe into the waters. I went the DIY version, using my adapted pattern of the Black Apple Doll you might remember from the 15 16 dancing dollies I made for Arden’s dance {…Continue Reading}
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Did you gobble till you wobbled? We had turkey and the fixin’s at home with our little family.

It stayed like this for roughly ten minutes until the kiddos discovered it and {…Continue Reading}
Source I love this! Happy Mother’s Day, everyone!
I have one last Valentine to share with you. With the cold weather, hubby Dave has been building cozy fires in the fireplace.

If you’re thinking the timing of this post is a bit odd, then you’re right. Growing up, we always did a crafty project after Thanksgiving dinner and I mentioned to my Mom that we didn’t get around to doing that at home this year. So she gathered up all the fixings for this cute project {…Continue Reading}
I’d always pretty much considered Valentine’s Day an adult holiday until I had kids. Â Now I appreciate the sweetness and fun of a day (or month!) to immerse ourselves in everything hearts & love & affection. Â I’ve had this plan to upcycle an old sleeveless sweater into a pillow and today I’m sharing what I’ve {…Continue Reading}
Now that Hadley has passed a year, I’ll do quarterly updates until she turns two. Since her birthday, Hadley: Attended her first parade. We went with gMa & gPa Sunshine to CMU’s homecoming parade. That’s my sorority house in the background. Went Trick or Treating for the first time. She is so definitely an extrovert. {…Continue Reading}
