Their birthday is toward the end of the month, so we often wind up throwing a party for them in June instead of May, since it's hard to compete with Memorial Day. We haven't settled on the exact date and time yet, but I'd love to host a backyard birthday Continue reading...

May Goals
Today I am joining my friend, Carrie of Curly Crafty Mom, in sharing my personal goals for May. I think setting monthly goals is a great exercise for getting things done! 1.

I don't think my husband and I have Continue reading...

How to Force Bulbs in Winter
*I received free product in exchange for my review. All opinions expressed in this post are 100% my own. I like to garden, so winter is a long and cold hiatus for me from one of my favorite hobbies! So when I received a box full of beautiful bulbs from High Country Gardens recently, I was anxious to do some planting! You may wonder how I could plant spring bulbs now -- but by "forcing" bulbs indoors now, I can enjoy some beautiful spring flowers in just a few short weeks!
