    High School Graduation Monogram Party

    May 4, 2019 / 0 Comments

    I do try to blog but sometimes I am just not good at it! This graduation party was done for my darling daughter Maeli one year ago and I am barely blogging about it! A good gathering with Friends and family is and has always been my favorite. Finding an excuse to get together is pretty easy for me but to go all out with a party is entirely on a whole other level by itself. She (my daughter) definitely deserves it though as she worked hard her whole high school career. Graduation day was WINDY and a little cool. I raced outside the morning of before heading up to…

All opinions are mine alone. #CollectiveBias #GoldfishGameTime   With the weather warming up and a hint of spring in the air, I having been thinking about many fun outdoor activities we enjoy during the spring season.  Usually we are headed to baseball practice or the park after school. I often keep a tote or bag in the car that I fill with snacks, drinks, and games or activities for our many outings.  During my last Walmart shopping trip I came across an end cap on the cracker and cookie aisle that has Pepperidge Farm® Goldfish® crackers in…

    August 10, 2017 / 1 Comment

    It’s been a whole year since I did this Harry Potter Party for my daughter’s 16th Birthday. I’ve been meaning to blog about it this past year but there is so many details that went into planning it. Making sure I cover each detail may be a task!

Make sure you check out Part Two, Three and Four of this Harry Potter party series.

    Just add Ice Cream Quick and Easy Gift Basket

    April 27, 2017 / 2 Comments

    Check out this adorable Ice Cream Gift Basket that I put together for a friend. I knew her Birthday was coming up so I wanted to do something inexpensive yet fun and tasty for her to not only enjoy for herself but for her family to enjoy also. I’ll show you how easy this basket was to put together. First the basket was given to me for free! It has the perfect handles and large enough to put several items in it. I could have painted it but I chose to leave it natural. The Dollar store is a great place to find inexpensive items and that is where I found…

    Drip Drip Drop April Showers Watering Can Easter Gift Basket

    April 11, 2017 / 0 Comments

    Today I’m excited to share with you how my Drip Drip Drop April Showers Watering Can Easter Gift Basket came together. Who doesn’t love a good deal?  I usually purchase my seasonal supplies a year in advance after the holiday when they are on clearance for 80 to 90 percent off.  Last year I found these darling watering cans at an outlet store near me. These cans would make perfect friend Easter Baskets so I purchased several of them because the price was too good to pass up.  As Easter has been approaching I knew I would be filling them but I wanted it to be clever and fit with…
