I cannot tell you how many toys my kids have gone through. We tend to do toy clearouts at least once a year, usually in preparation for Christmas. However, we have started to realize just how much money has gone to waste by doing this. Not only that, but the more toys = the more... Continue Reading →
November is here and that means the holiday season has officially started! November is the month of Thanksgiving, who doesn't love smashing on a ton of food? I know our family sure does! But, what Thanksgiving is supposed to be about is gratitude. I try to keep the lessons of gratitude going in our family... Continue Reading →
The fun has been, well, fun and the candy has surely been sweet! The kids definitely got enough candy to last awhile! Happy Halloween! Now onto November! [Already, holy crap!] 🎃jenn Oh, also, this happened today too!

Fall...Halloween...You can't have one without the other. So far the season has been a tad wet and muddy, but also cooling down from those sticky summer days. Monkey, in particular, loves the weather we have been having. As soon as she sees rain, she's putting her rain boots on and demanding to jump in muddy... Continue Reading →
