Fun things to do in Dallas/Fort Worth with Kids

There is so much family fun to be had in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. We lived right in the middle of the metroplex for over twelve years and loved raising our kids where there was so much to do. One year ago we moved away to be closer to family. It’s a great move for… [continue reading]

On-the-Go Adventure

This post is written by me on behalf of Nature Valley. All opinions are entirely my own. When we moved to the Rio Grande Valley I remember searching online for things to do with kids. One of the first things that came up was the McAllen Public Library. I scratched my head. Visiting a library… [continue reading]

Grace’s 11th Birthday

Grace was ever so excited to turn 11 in our new house! She had big plans. She would have our extended family over and we would all go swimming. It was such a big deal for all of us! Looking back I’m now sure how I managed it, but I didn’t get any photos of… [continue reading]

Birthday Boys

In the last year all my kids have turned a year older and life was so crazy with our move that I never did document the occasions. There has been so much that I’ve gotten behind on last year, but slowly and consistently, as much as I am able, I am remedying that! Since I… [continue reading]

Our Initiation into Parenthood

It was at the hospital after the birth of our first child that I first realized what a sound sleeper my husband is.  I don’t remember what it was I needed, but I kept pushing the nurse’s button and nothing was happening.  I tried calling Jason, who was asleep on a pull out chair beside… [continue reading]

Back in the Hospital

After what seemed like a freak hospital stay with my eight-year old son, I thought we’d come through the toughest part of our journey. I was wrong. We were living in limbo from day to day all seven of us crashing in my parents house. My husband was frantically trying to figure out a new… [continue reading]

An unexpected hospital stay

One day early this year I noticed a tiny white dot on my eight year old son’s face as I gave him Tylenol for a fever. His face caught my attention, but I didn’t think all that much about it. The next day the dot was a little bigger. It looked like an ant bite…. [continue reading]

Be Fearless Be Kind

Kindness is so important!  A kind word given or action taken is a treasure. How we cherish the people who have been kind to us. In the face of anger or fear, how kindness changes things and turns attitudes around! And that is why I’m so happy to partner with Hasbro in their new Be… [continue reading]
