Creeper drinking cups and Minecraft toys

In just a couple of weeks my first born Ronin will be turning 8! Where has the time gone? I vividly remember rocking a tiny 7-pound bundle on my chest as he drifted off to dream land like it was yesterday. John and I used to compete over who got to hold him. Now, he’s a GIANT […]

Filed Under: Crafts & DIY, Entertainment, Kids Activities, Parties/Holidays

Minions is in theaters. Woot! We are so excited to see it tomorrow! We all thought the Dispicable Me films were hysterical, so the first time we saw the Minions trailer in the theater we all did a double-take, and have been eagerly anticipating it ever since.

A week and a half ago I was on vacation in New Orleans for Jazz Fest, and oh the food! I went to college there many moons ago and one of the things that I absolutely dearly loved, and still miss is the fabulous cuisine. We ate at this incredible soul food restaurant one afternoon and […]

Bunny Snack Cups with Printable

Filed Under: Crafts & DIY, Free Printables, Parties/Holidays

I am a very simple crafter, and I’m using the term “crafter” very loosely here. I don’t own a fancy die-cutting machine, or go to Michael’s multiple times per week. I don’t even own a glue gun. So my type of craft projects probably won’t appeal to you if you’re the more advanced crafter. But if you’re more likely […]

Skylanders Skystones Card Game and Other Party Ideas

Filed Under: Entertainment, Kids Activities, Parties/Holidays

My kids (and husband) have a dear love of Skylanders. We’ve been fans for about two years and in that time have collected all four games and a ton of the characters and traps. John, being the game developer he is, instantly took to the video game,  and the kids who are also natural born gamers, followed his lead and never […]

Goodbye Winter! Hello Spring! The sun has been starting to shine and that’s making me very happy.

Having things to look forward to, like movie plans or Easter Egg Hunts, is so important when my […]

Inspired by Big Hero 6: Baymax Rice Ball and Party Ideas

Filed Under: Entertainment, Free Printables, Gluten Free, Kids Activities, Parties/Holidays

  Have you ever had an animated film touch your heart? As a mom with littles, most of my current in-theater movie experience is family entertainment. Ronin and Ellie mainly enjoy animated-style films versus live action. But honestly that’s OK for me because these days there are some incredible animated movies, with characters and story lines that […]
