I have decided to open my etsy shop back up and donate 100% of the proceeds to Operation Shower. I’m still working towards my goal of raising enough funds to help throw a baby shower for expecting military families. All of the items listed in my shop are made and ready to be shipped. And if anyone is interested in… Keep Reading

Organizing Tote Basket {tutorial}
Phew, it’s finally finished! This was one of those projects that I never thought I would finish. In all honesty, it is a fairly quick and simple project.

He can use a screwdriver and a hammer almost as good as any man and definitely better than his momma. His daddy is his #1 and wakes… Keep Reading
embrace the camera {tapping trees}
With the cold nights and warm days sugaring season has arrived!

The weather was warm and the sun was shining bright! The snow was still a… Keep Reading

Some of you were wondering if I made the caterpillar “party hats” and the caterpillars. So I figured I would give you all a closer look and quickly show you how I made everything. We made the usual chocolate cupcakes… Keep Reading
