Basic, Never Boring
Bringing home my firstborn was one of the greatest days of my life. I couldn’t imagine a more perfect little tiny baby. Fast forward a few years, and I was faced with the reality that I was going to be a special needs mom. This was something that I was not wanting to face, and…
What we’re reading… Amateur Hour by Kimberly Harrington. This is the perfect Mother’s Day gift for your mom, daughter, friend, or for yourself. Just like parenting, it combines the humor with the hurt. It made our Mom’s Summer Reading list, last year. I recently gifted this to a friend and she’s already given it her…
With the weather starting to warm up this Peach Margarita is the perfect thing to enjoy while watching your kids play outside or after they go to bed. I fell in love with Peach Margaritas after I took a trip with the kids to Palm Springs last year. I enjoyed it frozen; it was massive…

During the sale there are different percentages off depending on what level you are, there are also some different dates.

Pizza is something that all of my family will eat, and there will never be a complaint. So, on days that I struggle with a plan for dinner, (and I know I’m not the only one) I need a quick pizza sauce recipe that I know everyone in my family will love. I always have…
What we’re reading… The Husband’s Secret on Audible I’m loving this read. I’m not finished reading/listening to it yet, but it’s so good so far. There are a few different storylines, but each has a secret they are trying to figure out that their husband is keeping. They need to make it into a movie…
How-To: DIY Farmhouse Valentine’s Day Sign We recently relocated from Arizona to Texas, and I’m on a mission to make a DIY Valentine’s Day sign for my front porch. I have plenty of old Valentine’s Day decor, but I haven’t ever taken the time to make something for my front porch. I want the sign…
I love randomly surprising people with fun little gifts. And having a theme to go along makes it even more fun. With Christmas time coming up, I love to drop little, “You’ve Been Elfed” gifts off at friends’ or neighbors’ doors. What’s ‘You’ve Been Elfed’? Well it is just a little or a big something…
