Over the weekend was my daughters 5th birthday (I can’t believe I actually just typed that) I feel like just yesterday she was born, and I’m sure all you other mommy’s out there can relate when I say ‘where the heck did my baby go?!’ My daughter was actually due on Halloween, so even though [...]
“Trick or Treat… Smell my feet… Give me something good to eat….” Are you guys getting in the Halloween spirit yet? I know I am! My daughters 5th birthday is in a week so I’ve been doing a lot of behind the scenes prep work for that party post coming up. It’s going [...]
Happy Halloween! Well okay, not really…But it is close! Just a few more weeks and my house will be swarming with ghosts, goblins, witches, and maybe a pirate or two!

The temps outside still might be reading in the upper 80′s, but I had my first pumpkin spiced latte of the season, and to me that means it’s officially Fall! Yippee! Fall is my favorite season without a doubt! I love wearing long tunics and sweaters with tights. My Ugg boots get to come out [...]
