I do not like to call my kids picky, but sometimes it is difficult to get them to eat what I put on the table for them. If it is a fresh, delicious meal that they love to eat, then of course they will devour it, but if I try to feed them leftovers or …
Six Flags Over Texas has always been a favorite destination for both my husband and me because, being from Texas, it was THE place to go as a kid. We live fairly close, so we were thrilled when we were given the opportunity to visit as a family. This post was sponsored by Six Flags Over Texas, but …
Getting outdoors is always fun for our family. We love to explore, enjoy the sunshine, and roam the wide open spaces. We have been camping, or “glamping,” rather, in an RV, but have yet to take the whole family on a camping trip that involves all of us sleeping overnight in a tent. My thinking …

Music has always been something that we enjoy as a family. Sure we all have our different favorites, but we usually can agree on a song to listen to. When in the car, I let everyone have a turn choosing a song. The boys have headphones, but my husband I do not really have the …
I grew up the little sister of two older brothers. I was never super girly, but at the same time, would not call myself a tomboy. I never was a daredevil, did not really care for sports as a child, and being dirty was not my favorite thing, either. I am overjoyed that I …
I have been a mom for over nine (!!!) years now. Before that, I was a kindergarten teacher and before that, a preschool teacher. I have been around kids for most of my adulthood, and along the way, have met some amazing moms. It is funny how after you have been a mom for awhile, you …
I am not sure what started this family’s love of Star Wars, but it has been present for a very long time! There is something about Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, and the whole Star Wars storyline that is fun for everyone! The older boys have only recently been allowed to see the latest Star …
