Quick & Easy Playdough

It's a bold claim, but it's true. This IS the best playdough you'll make! We've had a few dreary, rainy days lately and although I could lay in bed all day with a book and a hot cup of coffee, I have kids who can't. I hate to mislead you though, I can't actually remember the last time I lazed about like that! Read a book? What is that? We've started to limit the amount of screen time that's been happening in the house lately & with that comes chorus' of "I'm bored" & "there's nothing to do". It's as though they don't know what a yard, or a book[...]

I've been a heavy breathing, steady wheezing, snot nosed beauty as of late. Super attractive I'm telling you. It makes things like getting a good nights sleep non existent. Mornings are hard enough as it is for me! Thankfully, I found some relief in these shower bombs. Infused with lavender, lemon & peppermint oil, they literally are the 'bomb'. Why those 3? Lavender & pepp[...]

Painted Flamingo Easter Eggs 

Hello lovelies! The sun has been shining and all the snow is melted in our area of the world (I think!). It rained over the past weekend and it was so refreshing. I love the smell of rain, especially the feeling of freshness that it brings. The good weather hasgiven me some motivation & I've been slowly changing up my décor around the home to give a more spring like feel to it. With that being said, I managed to dig out our box of Easter decorations. As I was sifting through items I found some dye-able plastic Easter eggs that I had picked up at[...]

Magnet Board to Game Board – Week 3 Update

**This post contains affiliate links. Please read my full disclosure HERE** Hey hey! How is it already Friday? I'm late with an update on our room makeover this week. It's been a hectic week of work, hockey, lacrosse, patching, sanding, patching again, priming, patching, more priming, choosing paint... the struggle is real. Tuck wanted dark blue "like our bathroom door" for his room. To find some inspiration I scrolled through Benjamin Moore's Instagram feed and checked out all the different dark blue rooms it featured. So much inspiration! Tucker's room f[...]
