Happy Easter Weekend 2018
Easter is a day that symbolizes hope, renewal, and new life. Without a doubt, I felt this in my heart yesterday. We had as close to a perfect day as we could imagine. From the weather to the food to the family time, Easter weekend was a beautiful time in 2018. First the girls found baskets from the Easter bunny. Then we had a delicious brunch with my immediate family, plus my sister's in-laws, and watched the cousins run around the yard hunting for Easter eggs. Then for a late lunch, we ... View the Post
What to Do When You Catch the Stomach Flu
I thought I escaped it... I really did. The flu has been invading every nook and cranny of our country this season and since the sickness around my town has slowed down, I didn't think I could catch the flu. I was wrong. Sunday night I woke up at 3:30 am with horrible stomach cramps. I was extremely nauseous and felt hungover despite having not had a drop of alcohol in the past 24 hours. I'll save you the details, but by 10 am I was lying in bed with horrible nausea, body aches, a low ... View the Post
Fun Things for Kids to Do at Home During Flu Season
Ever since half of our country came down with a cold or the flu, I decided it was best to keep my family indoors. Germs are everywhere, just waiting to attack my little humans, and last time we went to the public library we came home with a bag full of books and runny noses. There are fun things for kids to do at home that are free and don't require you to leave the comfort of your own home. We have spent the last few weeks in the house avoiding the germs in public places. Both of my ... View the Post
The Best Winter Boots for the Family
When we decided to move to Connecticut from Georgia just in time for the snow, I knew I had to find the best winter boots for the family. I grew up in New England and remember all too well the feeling of frozen feet just minutes after walking through the snow and slush of the season. Once the cold weather hit this year, my old winter boots proved to be incapable of keeping my toes warm and dry. While standing in the yard during our first snowstorm, my brother told me how we had try his favorite ... View the Post
What to Wear in Christmas Pictures
Without a doubt, I absolutely love having family photos taken for holidays or special occasions. Granted there is a level of stress that comes with dragging your kids (and husband) to a photo shoot, the end result is worth the hassle. When you have a great photographer holding the camera, you really only have to worry about what your family is wearing. Here are 5 examples of what to wear for Christmas pictures for everyone in your family. What to Wear in Christmas Pictures 1. ... View the Post
Halloween Recap and Happy November
Bright and early, Ailey and I started our day with a little Christmas is Coming playlist. Even though Halloween candy is sitting on the counter tempting me to eat it, and the costumes are still in a pile on the floor, it's all good, because November is here. I'm a firm believer in extending the holiday season as long as possible since December seems to fly by too quickly, so why not start listening to my favorite music on the first day of November. Before October 31 is just a faded memory, ... View the Post
Weekend Recap
Before I get into my weekend recap, I just have to say... my heart, thoughts, and prayers goes out to everyone who was in, or is affected by, the tragedy that occurred in Las Vegas overnight. Saturday was by far one of my most favorite days of this fall season as I was present for the Annual Reynolds Chili Sauce Event. Basically my parents, my Dad's Aunt and his cousins all get together to make my Grandma Mary's famous chili sauce. It is SO delicious and it can be eaten on practically ... View the Post
