For my daughter’s 7th birthday she wanted to have a tea party with her doll and all of her friends! We decided to throw a little picnic at the park and invite all her friends and their dolls! My daughter loves to get dressed up and wanted the picnic to be fancy so I decided to create a little picnic area full of flowers for her own little secret garden!

Gift ideas for girls ages 2 to 6! These are all things that my two daughters have and love! Most of these have been Christmas or birthday gifts over the years!

If you’re struggling with gift ideas for him or other men in your life, here are some they are sure to love! I made this list with a lot of my husbands favorite things, or favorite gifts I have given him in the past!

I put these gift guides together for you with the things that I have and love or things that are on my personal wishlist. Some of the items on here are also things I have previously gifted and they loved it! I hope all of these ideas help you!

This is one of my all time favorite meals! My husband and I both like chili but don’t like beans so I have spent the last 5 years perfecting this recipe.

I’m sure I’m not the only one who struggles to find meals that the entire family will eat without complaining about. Not only do I have incredibly picky kids but my husband is just as picky!

Life is so busy with 3 kids that I totally forgot to decorate for Valentine’s Day or make any fun plans with the kids. My oldest daughter mentioned being sad we didn’t have any decorations up so while the older kids were at school I decided to put together a fun surprise for them.

If you’re reading this post then you probably have a baby or toddler that you’re in need of gifts for! As a mom of 3 I have had a lot of experience shopping for gifts for babies and toddlers! There have been times I got them something I thought they would love and it ends up being a total bust! So I thought I would share what my kids favorite Christmas gifts have been over the years during the younger years!

I’ve always found it so much harder to shop for my son than it was my daughter! Maybe it’s because I’ve always been a girlie girl but I personally think that there are so many more fun gifts to buy for girls! If you’re having a hard time shopping for your little boy then hopefully this gift guide will help you!

This time of year as a mom is so much fun! I love seeing the magic in my kids eyes and the smiles on their faces. But there is also a lot of work that goes in to making that magic happen. Managing all there is to do and getting it all done on time can be super overwhelming!

We finally got the chance to go to Oogie Boogie Bash at Disneyland! I have always wondered what takes place in the parks when all the pass holders get kicked out for this exclusive event!

This is my absolute favorite time of the year! It finally starts to cool down, although we are still waiting for that here in California, and that means it’s time to get bundled up and cuddle by the fireplace!

This last weekend we went up to Oak Glen for apple picking. I’ve been wanting to go for the past two years and we finally went!
