Helping Busy Moms Take Back Their Lives!
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Pringles® Summer Jam. Our family seems to travel quite a bit during the summer months. So far, this summer alone, I’ve been to 3 different theme parks with my kids. That’s not a normal thing for me, but this summer, that’s just the way it worked out. On many of our trips, we tend to pack
Monday, was my son’s 18th birthday. 18! I have been a mom for 18 years? How is that possible? We had a surprise birthday party for him on Saturday evening and the theme of the party was BACON! All food had bacon in it except for the peanut butter cup cake. We had about 25 people in our house to feed, so I was super glad that we (my girls
This weekend, we had a surprise birthday party for my oldest child, who will be turning 18 this week. He is one of those kids who LOVES bacon. He talks about it all the time. If he hears bacon, he wants it. So… my girls and I decided that we wanted to have a surprise party for him AND make it a bacon party. So… the next few days, I’ll
Lately, I’ve had so many things to accomplish, I’m not sure what to do first. I spin in circles, sit and do nothing or just do the wrong things because I don’t know where to start. Have you ever been there? I’m guessing if you’re the procrastinator type, like me, you definitely have. Here lately, we have had a lot of things to get done, not just on my blog,
If you have more than one child, you will know that toys seem to multiply at an alarming rate. The family playroom quickly turns from your kids’ playtime haven into a chaotic hovel, mismatched toys strewn about with no sense of order or organization. Baby toys and chemistry sets sit alongside each other and you know something has to change. If this situation is currently happening in your house,
Are you one of the fortunate (or maybe in some cases, not so fortunate) Americans that are allowed to buy fireworks in the United States? I know living in a rural Kansas community, we have always been allowed to buy them and shoot them off. We have a few restrictions, such as not setting them off after midnight and those who live in town can only shoot them off
(This is a sponsored post, all opinions contained within are 100% my own and not influenced by the sponsor). I have heard about making T-shirt quilts for a long time. It sounds like such a neat craft to make in order to preserve memories of your family’s past, but I’m the type of person who will put off a big craft project like making a T-shirt blanket, even
(This post contains affiliate links) How does a girl who doesn’t really pay attention to details get interested in photography? She has a bunch of kids! 7 of them to be exact. I am one who absolutely hates taking the kids to a photo studio to get their pictures taken. We used to do it regularly when I had less kids, but as my family grew, I decided we’d have
Hey! How was your weekend? It’s been a while since I’ve shared a random update about my family and what we’ve been up to. I thought, today is the perfect day to do just that. What we’ve been doing…. We’ve been busy. I told you all about our Schlitterbahn Kansas City trip and how I got a really bad sunburn. What I didn’t tell you is 8 days later, I accompanied my kids’
Have you met my 7 kids yet? They’re all so cute, don’t you think? My oldest will be 18 next month and my youngest is 1. When you run into “old” people at the grocery store commenting on your kids and how fast time flies, don’t take it lightly. I used to think, “yeah whatever”, but now… I’m serious. Time really does fly when you’re raising kids. If
Does your tween aged child get bored easily during the summer months? Being a Tween is a tricky age (usually defined as a child between the ages of 9 and 12). They often want to do grown up things, but younger child things appeal to them, too. It kind of depends on their mood, and that always seems to be changing. One of my pet peeves is seeing kids
This past weekend, we took the family to Schlitterbahn Water Park in Kansas City, KS. We had so much fun! It was the most unique water park I’ve ever been to. The slides were great, the kids play area had so many slide choices and of course, you can’t leave out the World’s Tallest Water slide as being one of the coolest features in the park! 3 of my 7
