I got a box of UNREAL candy to review - and I was ecstatic! When the box arrived, it was well over 100 degrees outside, so my candy was melted. That didn't slow us down, though! It was quickly thrown in the fridge, and while it may have a funny shape, it is still chocolate! What we thought: UNREAL54 (Chocolate Shell Candy ... Read More about UNREAL Candy #Review

Gallery Direct {Review}
I love art, but I have the most difficult time deciding on what piece to purchase and then where to put it in my home. When it came time to pick my Gallery Direct piece, I browsed around for hours and hours. I really wanted something that screamed "Americana" but I didn't find anything that really said, "YOU NEED ME!" so I kept looking. ... Read More about Gallery Direct {Review}
LEGOLAND Discovery Center {Grapevine, TX} #Review
The kids and I were headed up to Dallas to visit my sister for a week. We'd talked about what to do and it was going to be over 100* outside, so we were focused on indoor activities! LEGOLAND made the list! I knew the boys would be THRILLED, so I had waited to tell them until the last minute, but Hubs spilled the beans. ...

Wordless Wednesday
We are home from vacationing, but that doesn't mean life has slowed down! This was our 4th of July: Photo FAIL! J's hand looks like it's IN the horse's rear. :| Brotherly love! True love! (PS: J took this!) I missed most of it, but this is probably one of the best pictures I took! I also really love this, even if it is a ... Read More about Wordless Wednesday
CottonAge.com T-Shirt {#Review and #Giveaway} CLOSED
I am a t-shirt and jeans (or capris/shorts) kind of girl. When I received the graphic tee from CottonAge.com, I couldn't wait to throw it on! The kids and I were headed out of town so I put the package in my suitcase. On one of the last days at my sister's house, I pulled out my new shirt, but I couldn't get it over my chest. I ...

Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookies
Picture this - it's a beautiful Saturday morning, your kids haven't fought yet today, your husband is making a fire tornado and you already have laundry running. And then this: Hubs: "Can I use this oatmeal canister for the tornado?" Me: "UHHHH, that canister is FULL." Hubs: "I guess you'll have to create some cookies today?" Me: "Hmm, cookies ...

I Wanna GOOOOOO!
I heard about the Brandcation a few months ago. After the Bloggers Gone Coastal Brandcation, I sat and read blog posts and imagined what it would have been like if I had had the chance to go. Since then, I've been thinking about how I could go - mostly by saving every penny. Now I have the opportunity to win a ticket, lodging and some travel ... Read More about I Wanna GOOOOOO!
Wordless Wednesday
So, the fun continued last week: We took the kids bowling - this is James' "OH YEAH" dance! Colin lifting a 9 pound ball. We couldn't find anything smaller and he wanted to do it alone. Becca (sister) bought glow-in-the-dark bubbles. I couldn't get great pictures without the flash. Blowing Bubbles! LEGOLAND (Discovery Center in ... Read More about Wordless Wednesday
Tiny Prints Summer Party {#Giveaway} CLOSED
My favorite thing about summer is that there is no SET anything. The kids and I go to bed when we want, we get up when we want and we do what we want when we feel like it. That being said, we love having get-togethers and enjoy time with our family and friends. We try to have some social even once a month. For me, the most ...

Dole’s Fruit Smoothie Shakers and Frozen Fruit Single-Serve Cups {#Review and #Giveaway} CLOSED
Texas is HOT in the summer ... very, VERY hot. We've already been hitting the 100+ degree mark and last week we broke a record. (If I recall, the old record was 103* and we hit 106* that day.) Anyway, it's nice to have cold, healthy treats. Dole makes Fruit Smoothie Shakers that are PERFECT for anytime, but I like them best in ...
