Halloween is just around the corner and if you haven't gotten your costumes yet, you have to get them TODAY! My girls have been on an Elsa and Anna kick since last year, but for Halloween they wanted to do something different. Thankfully Buy Costumes has something for EVERYONE, especially little princesses who have a hard time making up their mind. My oldest has decided Ariel will be her new favorite princess this Halloween. But not Ariel ...

We Had a Halloween-Themed Elmo Party! #MC #ImagineWithElmo #Sponsored
Having play dates with my younger daughter have become more frequent now that my oldest is in full-day school. We both need friends around and having play dates is the easiest way to get everyone together in a safe environment and hope everyone has a good time. Last week, we decided to do something a little different than our typical play dates and host a Halloween theme children's party. With Halloween themed goodies, and fun costumes, all the ...
Unwinding With Hidden Object Games on the iPad #TheSecretSociety
I've been a huge fan of hidden object games for years. Even before the first iPhone or iPad came out, I was playing hidden object games on my computer. For me, it was a way to relax and unwind after a long day. I loved the challenge and felt that it was a type of game I was really good at. I've tried many hidden object games from various companies, but I eventually lose interest in each one because I would have to buy the game or levels to move ...
A Perfect Meal – BBQ Chicken Pasta #PastaFits #MC #Sponsored
Pasta is a staple in our home, and I'm pretty sure it's true for many parents of picky eaters. My girls go through phases of wanting pasta everyday to not wanting it for a few weeks. Now that school is in session and our busy schedule is in full swing, pasta helps me create quick, healthy meals for dinner. The problem? While my girls are happy with plain pasta, my hubby and I like more variety. Perhaps a "dressed up" pasta. This is ...
Wowing My Guests With The Cleanest Dishes Enter To Win a @MyCascade Prize Pack! #DDDivas #CascadeShiningReviews #sponsored
A few weeks ago I hosted a get together where I wowed my closest mommy friends and taught them something new about dish washing. I know what you might be thinking- a get-together about chores is not fun, but I assure you, we still managed to make it interesting! Getting together with your closest friends is always a good time, and introducing my friends to something new that might make their lives easier is just icing on the cake. No one wants to ...
Modern Simplicity With #Corelle + A Dinnerware #Giveaway!
The type of dinnerware people choose may say a lot about them. When I got married and chose my everyday dishes, I went for something strong and heavy with simple colors. After I had children I realized they would need their own plastic dinnerware to prevent breakage, but had my reservations about using plastics. My kids, now ages 5 and 2, want to feel like they are grown up and can use grown up plates. When my kids go to grandma and grandpa's ...
Teaching Kids to Give Back With Fiskars! #Fiskars365
Teaching kids about the importance of giving back has always been an interest of mine. I worked with middle and high schoolers who always seemed to come together when it was time to give back to their community. Now that I have my own children, I want to instill those same beliefs in them. Although my oldest is still very young, she understands why we give back and knows that there are people out there in less fortunate situations that may need ...
Power Rangers Costumes for Halloween + Tips To Stay Safe!
I have two real girlie girls! They can often be found in a pretty princess dress or tutu, having a tea party and pretending to live in a kingdom. My little one, however, may have a warrior side to her. She's the child with a little edge. A princess that helps save another princess. Or, as I've seen her most recently at a costume party- the princess with a sword! She's quite a character, and the latest outfit from the PowerRangers costume lineup ...
