Each year I struggle to find something special to give hubby for Christmas, Valentines, his birthday and more. He is just difficult to buy for. But this year, for the weeks before his birthday, he talked more and more about the local food available here in West Michigan. Now, I’d say hubby has been aRead more
As many of you might have picked up on, Hubby and I are expecting our first child. In fact, as I write this I am 4 days past my due date. The journey we’ve embarked on from a husband and wife to a father and mother has been an amazing one. There have been plentyRead more

I’m due this weekend (#babywatch2015) and Ang has been amazing volunteering to do some postsRead more
Today I’ve got an extra special treat to share! Well, it might be just ordinary special to most, but it is extra special to me. This Mother’s Day will be my first as a mom and not just a daughter. The prospect is both terrifying and so exciting! But I wanted to make sure thatIRead more
Mother’s and Father’s Day are on the horizon, but did you know there is such a thing as Sibling’s Day? It’s April 10th. Its not super official but they are working to make it a national holiday (Check it out at http://www.siblingsday.org/). In 2014, Siblings Day became pretty well known on social media channels like FacebookRead more
It is no secret that Hubby and I are gamers. In the past I’ve shared Minecraft creeper marshmallows, Printable Minecraft costumes, Zelda themed swaddle blanket and this awesome Zelda themed ceramic mug. Today though, I’m going even more old school. I’m talking the Nintendo Entertainment System, baby! The console itself was released in my husband’s birth year,Read more

I am addicted to necklaces. Seriously. I have so many necklaces that you would think I couldn’t possibly wear them all. But I do! I love to make different color combos, different styles and designs for all the seasons. I have the perfect necklace for every outfit. But don’t worry! I’m not breaking the bank. ;D IRead more
One of my favorite signs of spring is the sudden appearance of birds. One day there is nothing, not a perfectly formed beak to be found… and the next day they flock around all my favorite neighborhood stores. Bright plumage lining all of the candy aisles. Of course I’m not talking about real birds. Oh no.Read more
Finding inspiration has never been a problem. The problem is finding time to do all of the wonderful things that I want to try out. This project is one that has been sitting in the back of my mind for two years at least. I can’t remember where I first saw it, but the concept stuck:Read more
What do you get the person who has everything? That is easy! You! You give them your time, (or maybe a little time off) and your energy. For many, these gifts mean even more than typical chocolates and a card. I like to give DIY gifts or a similar reason, like Printable Love Notes & Tin, LocalRead more
I’ve mentioned before that Valentine’s Day at my house get lumped in with our wedding anniversary. For that reason, we don’t typically do anything fancy on the actual February 14th.
