We're deep in the midst of winter here in the Northeast, which means the days tend to feel really long. They seem even longer when you have 3 kids at home (one of which is teething) and it's just too cold to get outside. Most of you know how much I love a good craft project by now, and that I LOVE anything holiday related and festive. So, in an effort to cling to my own ... Read More
Valentine’s Day Crafts | DIY Heart Suncatchers
It's no secret that I love a good craft project, but when it's a project that I can involve my kids in, I enjoy it even more. It's so satisfying to see them get creative, and the joy they take in making something themselves just melts my mama heart!

I'm not sure how the weather is where you are, but it is bitterly cold here this weekend... like negative degrees with the windchill cold, so as you can imagine, we have really big plans to stay in, snuggle up, and do a whole lot of nothing. Seeing as it is both Valentine's Day weekend, and super blustery around these parts, a lot of what I'm swooning over this week ... Read More

Love… and Chocolate, Make the World Go Round
Some people may think that Valentine's Day has become an overly commercialized holiday. While others have even gone as far as saying that it is (gasp) made up.

I also see absolutely nothing wrong ... Read More
