Today is the first day of summer break for us and I'm feeling all the colorful, happy vibes that come with this season. I am looking forward to lots of lazy days spent by the pool, vacations, and simply enjoying a slower pace schedule with my kids. Each year as my kids get older I realize that these sweet summer moments are fleeting and before you know it they won't be around much. Just like these moments with my kids I want to make summer last, so I decided to create a … [Read more...]

Hello there friends! St. Patrick's Day is that special holiday where anyone can be Irish for the day. I know so many people that go absolutely crazy celebrating the day and even take off of work to make it their own personal holiday party every year. Then there are some who just quietly celebrate being Irish or wishing they were, in their own ways. No matter where you fall on the celebratory spectrum of this holiday, I think it's safe to say we all feel blessed and we all hope and wish for a … [Read more...]

This post is being sponsored by Thermoweb. All thoughts and opinions are my own. I'm hosting our monthly supper club next week and decided on a festive Margaritas and Mistletoe themed celebration. I've been busy planning and creating decorations, but realized one important thing was missing...mistletoe. It turns out you can't actually buy real mistletoe in my area because it is a parasitic plant that can be harmful to trees. So, I did what any creative hostess would do in a … [Read more...]

One of my kids favorite things to do, other than tubing down the Frio, is to collect river rocks. We have quite the collection of rocks that somehow make their way home, get scattered around the yard and house, and occasionally even end up in the wash. … [Read more...]
