This past weekend, my husband took the kids to Comic-Con in Dallas. Both kids love Star Wars and Minecraft, and as I was at a blogging conference for the day, he loaded up the kids and joined some friends at Comic-Con (and for the record, he says he does not recommend taking young kids unless…
DIY Candy Corn Wreath
Well, ladies and gentlemen, it’s time for my quarterly food craft! I’m not crafty very often, but when I am…I like to use candy as my medium of choice. I mean, I can’t feel guilty about eating 32,000 candy corns before the second week of September has even started if it’s for a CRAFT, right?!…
21 Day Fix Baked Apples
Fall food is the best, isn’t it? Rich, flavorful, and spiced just right…I love it. It’s also really, really easy to eat all the fall food (Halloween candy! pumpkin pie! turkey and cranberry sandwiches!). I plan on indulging in my favorite fall foods, as I always do…but this year, I’ve found some healthier options that…
Halloween Treat Bag Printables & Candy-Free Goody Bags
True story: One Halloween, when I was in the third grade or so, my mom decided that she would not pass candy out that year. Because we lived in a neighborhood with only a handful of trick-or-treaters, most of the neighbors gave us full-size candy bars, or poured handful upon handful of candy into our pillowcases. The same…
DIY Power Rangers Costume
If I can make this no-sew DIY Power Ranger costume, anyone can. Seriously. It’s made with tape. I am mostly not the kind of person who makes her kids’ Halloween costumes. In theory, I’d love to. Homemade costumes are cute, they fit better, they’re unique…homemade Halloween costumes are awesome! But you know those costumes you…

And secondly, Netflix is doing something new and super cool for birthdays that your kid are going to love! I’m a…
Halloween Treats for Pets – Free Printable Treat Bag Labels!
Last Halloween, we were short one family member. We didn’t know it at the time, though. We *thought* our family was complete. But just a few months later, we found ourselves welcoming a new member of the family. A short, furry, four-legged family member…but a family member nonetheless. We call him Snoopy, and we are…
Super Simple No-Sew Elsa Costume
As you may know, we are huge Frozen fans around here. HUGE. I could *probably* recite most of the movie for you, if you asked. I’ve been looking for an Elsa costume for Claire, to no avail. Apparently, we are not the only Frozen fans, and Elsa costumes are a hot commodity. As I was lying…
Printable Outlander Wall Art
I love to read, which you probably know if you are a return reader…I love talking about books! And you also may know that I love Outlander. This post contains affiliate links. The Outlander series books by Diana Gabaldon are, without a doubt, my favorite books. Whenever I finish one, I feel a giant black…
Snoopy Hard-Boiled Eggs Make Healthy Party Snacks!
This post is sponsored by Lonestar Eggs. All opinions are my own. September 29th was my dog’s birthday. Snoopy, our beloved Beagle/Border Collie/Something Else rescue dog, turned two! So of course I wanted to throw him a party, but…that seemed like a lot of work. So instead, I came up with some healthy party snacks…
