    The Perfect Playdate For Your Kids

    December 6, 2015 /

      This week we invited a couple friends from school and hosted a dance party at our house.  I figured the kids always need to let off some steam after school and what better way to do that than a dance party in our living room?!   Just Dance: Disney Party 2 was released this fall and provides a great way to entertain the kids this holiday season.  Or if you need a little break, have your kids host a little party themselves.  I promise this fun video will keep them entertained for quite some time.  Plus they are getting some great exercise dancing around the living room! Just Dance Disney Party 2 features…

    The Importance of Volunteering as a Teenager

    December 5, 2015 /

    This article was written by Kaitlin Murray – our new teen contributor. Volunteering changed my life. I learned more about myself and about the world than I ever thought I would. Not only did it shape me as a person, but it also changed my perspective on the world and on life, giving me an incredible insight to the world that surrounds me. After one month of meeting refugees escaping Syria, Iraq, and other war-torn countries, I learned how great it is to give of our hearts and our time, but most importantly to love people unconditionally.  So here are the top 4 reasons why it is so important to volunteer…

    Imba Means Music: The African Children’s Choir Experience Through the Eyes of a Child

    December 4, 2015 /

    Imba Means Sing: A Celebration of Hope Through the African Children’s Choir   “‘Imba Means Sing” delivers a heartwarming song of hope for the future.” – LA Times “Vibrant, uplifting documentary” – Common Sense Media It’s pretty amazing what great things can happen if someone cares enough. Over thirty years ago, Irishman Ray Barnett traveled to Uganda and saw, with his own eyes, children displaced and left with nothing, many, orphaned, due to war and political unrest. Having come from a place where he understood what it was like to be orphaned, the experience pulled at his heartstrings. After a bit of time, he got to know some of the…

    Formica® Laminate: A Modern Choice

    December 3, 2015 /

      Can you hear the yelps of joy coming from my place?  Yes, our kitchen redo is finally finished and I am so excited to share it with you! I have wanted to change our concrete kitchen countertops forever and was going back and forth on what I wanted.  The concrete just didn’t hold up very well over time and to get it fixed properly would have been quite expensive. And Corian and Marble countertops are gorgeous but weren’t really what I was looking for. I wasn’t sure exactly what I wanted but I kept looking through Pinterest and Instagram looking for the perfect kitchen design that suited my tastes.  So you can imagine my excitement…

    Easy Holiday Entertaining Recipes

    December 2, 2015 /

      When it comes to holiday entertaining, I like to keep things simple.  Think The Dude’s vibe from The Big Lebowski when it comes to my cooking and baking.  So this holiday season when I was asked to put together a sweet and salty recipe on behalf of Betty Crocker and WinCo supermarkets all I could think was – let’s make this easy on us moms!  Don’t get me wrong, I love to scroll through Pinterest and Instagram eyeing the amazing recipes the other (and very talented) moms have put together but I just don’t have that in me.  I like easy!  But that doesn’t mean with a little creativity you…
