Of course after seeing the movie my kids wanted the beautiful ... [ Read More ]
A Day at the Hollywood Wax Museum
Sometimes life can get so busy and hectic that you just need a vacation, a chance to escape and get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. A chance to see and experience new things. Last month my family and I took a quick weekend getaway up to Los Angeles and Hollywood to do just that! While there we visited the Hollywood Wax Museum for some family fun, and had a great time! Hollywood Wax Museum is the longest running wax museum in the United ... [ Read More ]
Downton Abbey Tea Party
I am SO beyond excited to share today's post with you today! It combines three of my most favorite things all in one- a good party, Downton Abbey, and World Market!

I bought most of the dishes, serving trays, silverware, and food from World Market. They have an amazing selection of gourmet food from around ... [ Read More ]
Delicious Potato Soup Recipe
Although we're only 9 days into December, almost our whole family (my husband, four kids, and I) have already been sick this holiday season.

I give them a box of Kleenex tissues for those runny or stuffed up noses, and then make them a ... [ Read More ]
Avocado Cilantro Hummus Recipe
I have wanted to make my own hummus for the longest time. This week I went for it, and I will DEFINITELY be making my hummus at home from now on! It was soooo easy, quick, and tastes so fresh and good! Instead of making the traditional hummus, I gave my recipe a twist by adding a large avocado and lots of cilantro to make an avocado cilantro hummus dip. Let me tell you, this stuff is addicting! It's easy to adapt to your own personal taste, too. If you like more ... [ Read More ]
DIY Anthropologie-Inspired Snow Globes
Last year I posted a Christmas project tutorial that was very popular. It was inspired by an Anthropologie version of a snow globe that was pretty, but was soooo overpriced. I don't mind paying for some items at that amazing store, but when it's something that I know I can DIY at home for so much cheaper, then you can bet I'm going to do it! If you follow me on Instagram, you might have seen that my version was just featured in Mother Earth Living Magazine, a ... [ Read More ]
