Summer is almost upon us. Sometimes it sneaks up on us just like Christmas tends to; and before you know it, the entire summer is gone and you feel like you didn’t accomplish a single thing that you planned to. Don’t let this summer pass you by! Here are five ways you can be prepared…
This weekend we had quite the raging party. It was superhero-palooza as we celebrated birthdays for my now four and two year old boys (insert ugly cry here). [ Invite: Nuts & Bolts Paper Co ] In the midst of party decor and food planning, I got the idea to create some popcorn cones that tied…
This year marks a milestone for my husband and myself. We’ve never been on a true “beach” vacation together… in the past, we’ve always done big city vacations like Chicago and Portland. But this year is our ten year anniversary and I told the Mr. that we are going to sit on a beach and…
I hate mud. I hate wood floors and mud. I hate kids and mud. I’m type-A, after all, and messes freak me out. When we moved to Colorado from California, I realized I had a new battle to deal with: winter boots covered in snow and mud that just wouldn’t quit – oh, and 3…
Ok, so technically it is in the 30s right now and I have about 2 feet of snow blocking a good portion of my windows. But I won’t let winter’s last storms get me down; I’m thinking about sunshine and spring and backyard barbecues. It’s on its way, so I might as well begin preparations,…
It’s been a long time since I posted fashion photos. Contrary to what you may believe, I have still been getting dressed. And I do still love me some shopping and putting together outfits. But ever since we moved to a new place back in April, I realized I haven’t taken the time to snap…

As you may have read, I recently took a road trip with our 3 kids and my husband across 5 states and the greater Midwestern area. It was an adventure, to say the least. We had some complaining and crying (and maybe a little yelling on my part…), but for the most part we also…
I don’t really like road trips. My husband will agree. He almost threw me out of the car a few times. I get antsy and whine about how it’s taking FOREVER. But despite not enjoying being stuck in the car for long periods of time, I do enjoy making memories with my family. And this…

It feels like summer just began. Is it really possible that it’s almost over?
Mia doesn’t return to preschool until after Labor Day, which makes summer feel a little longer for our family since many kids started heading back as early as mid-August. We are soaking up these last couple of weeks of summer sun and time with all three kids at home.
