S’more Crispy Treats #Recipe

I know that a lot of people love s’mores, I am not one of them. For some reason whenever I make s’mores they never come out right. The chocolate doesn’t melt most of the time and there is always too much graham cracker whenever I make them. True s’mores are not my thing. My children on the other hand love them. So I spent a little time looking through my pantry and thinking about ways to improve the s’more and I came up with S’more Crispy Treats. This recipe came from leftover stuff from my pantry that I threw together on a whim. They are yummy. So yummy that there are none left.

Keeping the kids warm this winter with the JJ Cole polar bundleme #Review


Just because it is winter does not mean that I am any less busy. In fact I seem to constantly be going somewhere these days and I can almost always be found with all three of my children in tow. Traveling with children can seem daunting when the weather is nice; let alone when it is winter and there is snow falling and the temperatures have plummeted below zero. The older children get bundled up with coats, hats, and mittens. Since baby Julia is typically in her car seat or a stroller during the winter the JJ Cole polar bundleme keeps her warm {Thank you to JJ Cole for providing me with a sample polar bundleme}.

Pecan Glazed Pork Tenderloin #Recipe

I love a good pork tenderloin. I have tried it many different ways and have loved the difference a few changes can make to an old recipe. I made this the other night for my husband and he devoured it. Usually when we make pork tenderloin we have leftovers -that was not the case this time around. We ate it all! It was a delicious and very festive meal thanks to the pecans.

Planning a Christmas Dinner Menu


Every year I host Christmas Eve in my home for my in-laws. This year we are changing things up and I will be hosting Christmas Day instead of Christmas Eve. Hosting a big family holiday takes a lot of work. The hardest part for me is the menu planning. I like to try and change things up a bit with some new recipes as well as some tried and true family favorites. I thought since I was working so hard on putting together a delicious Christmas Menu that you might like to see what I am planning on serving for Christmas Dinner, just in case you are still working on your menu too.

A great gift for baby: The CombiUSA All-in-One Activity Walker #Review


I love shopping for babies. It may be because I love babies and everything about them. They are tiny little miracles that usually smell great and have the most adorable giggles ever. I don’t even mind the spit up – they are that cute. When it comes to shopping for a baby it can be a bit overwhelming at times since there are so many options out there. So I tend to like the products that can multitask. The CombiUSA All-in-One Activity Walker is a walker, an entertainer, a jumper, and a safe place to grab a snack {Thank you CombiUSA for providing me with a sample All-in-One Activity Walker}. This sleek little activity walker is multifunctional as well as adorable and we love it!

The Best Christmas Card Ever: Macadamia Nut Craziness!

We have a family friend who is quite the jet setter. His name is Rich and he hops on a plane to travel like most of us hop in a car to run to the grocery store. Rich used to live in Hawaii and whenever he would come to visit he would bring me some sort of macadamia nut treat or Kona coffee. I know – how spoiled am I? The answer was that I was extremely spoiled. And then Rich moved out of Hawaii and my macadamia nut/Kona coffee stopped coming. And then… a box came.

DIY Magnetic World Map Wall Art Project


My son has a pirate themed bedroom. It is not an over the top pirate theme. It is also not cartoonish. It is more nautical than anything else… or at least it was until we took on a magnetic world wall map project.  I knew that I wanted a large world map that my son could interact with in his room and I knew that I wanted it mounted on his wall. So I spent a bit of time thinking about how I wanted to accomplish this and decided on magnets.
