Free Printable Disney Boarding Pass Tickets + Cut File

When we took our kids to Disney last fall, we wanted a fun way to “surprise” them with the announcement without going too far overboard. I know there are some people that wait until the morning they’re leaving to tell their kids (“surprise, we’re going to Disney! Right now!”), and as much fun as that would have been, I knew I wouldn’t be able to handle the stress of getting ready for a two week trip to Florida AND keeping it a secret from the kids. Plus, I wanted a little bit of time to […]

Every Bunny Needs Some Bunny Printable & SVG Files

This post contains affiliate links – click here to read my full disclosure. You guys, my life has been changed. Okay, I realize that’s a little dramatic, but honestly…I don’t think my crafting life has been transformed this much since I got my Silhouette. I’m talking about my new “toys” that I got this past weekend – a 10.5″ iPad Pro, Apple Pencil, and the Procreate App. I have been messing around with hand lettering for a little over a year now, and while I am still very much a beginner as far as skills […]

Under the Sink Organization: Before and After!

Here’s how I tackled under the sink organization in our kitchen sink cabinet – it’s practical, functional, and pretty, too! An easy run down on how to organize under the kitchen sink. I’ve said it before…I am NOT a naturally organized person. It’s something I have to work at purposefully. I can clean out spaces over and over, but inevitably they’ll just go back to being a mess…unless I work to put together some kind of organizational system that fits the needs of that space. It is more work up front, and usually a […]

Spring Home Tour

Well, the calendar says it’s spring, even if the weather around here doesn’t, so I’m sharing a spring home tour with you today! Luckily most of the snow from the big storm last week has melted, though it will take a while for the big piles in parking lots to melt away. At least we’ve had a few sunny days, even though the temperature doesn’t want to climb above the 40s! If you follow me on Instagram and have been watching my Stories, you know that we are knee-deep in a room makeover, transforming […]

10 Things to Do With Your Kids When School is Cancelled

Thanks to a global pandemic, here we all are in an absolutely unprecedented situation. Schools and universities closed for weeks, many places of business encouraging people to work from home, sporting events and concerts cancelled, even Disney World is shuttered. I don’t know about you, but the prospect of being stuck at home with our kids for several weeks (or maybe even longer??) is a little bit overwhelming. It’s one thing to do this in the summer time, when the weather is warm and we have places we can go – the library, museums, parks, day trips, etc.… READ MORE

Christmas Morning Hacks for a Joy-Filled Morning

As a kid, I always loved Christmas morning (what kid doesn’t?), but as an adult, I think I love it even more. The season of preparation leading up to Christmas morning are full of moments of joy, but it’s pretty stressful too. The gift-buying and wrapping, the decorating, the baking, the scheduling, the entertaining, the budget-keeping…it can be pretty overwhelming and stress-inducing for sure. Christmas morning, though, all of that fades away and we can just be together as a family, relax, and enjoy the day. I’m able to see more clearly the… READ MORE
