This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Brummel & Brown. I was recently offered the opportunity to try out Brummel & Brown spread, a creamy buttery spread made with non-fat yogurt. I was happy to give the spread a try, since I am always looking for healthy snack options for my kids -- now that my daughters are entering their tween years, they are hungry when they get home from school! My daughters love to snack on crackers and bread with fruit, so the Brummel & Brown spread is a good option for us. Healthy & Tasty Spread What I like about the Brummel Continue reading...

Painted Craft Birdhouses
Monday was my kids' first day back to school after a week with the flu. My husband, kids and I all got a bad case of the flu this month, even though we all got our flu shots! Having the kids home for a whole week got a little tough at the end. Even though my kids were under the weather, they were starting to get bored! Luckily, I had some craft supplies and a box of acrylic craft paints on hand, and my daughters and I spent a fun afternoon together painting birdhouses! The birdhouses and paints are relatively inexpensive and can be found at just about any craft store. DIY Painted Continue reading...

Happy National Rubber Ducky Day
I bet you didn't know it, but today is a special day! That's because it is officially national rubber ducky day! I didn't know about the holiday until just a few days ago, but I am sure glad that I found out! I have been a fan of the rubber ducky ever since I saw Jim Henson's Ernie sing the rubber ducky song on Sesame Street on TV. I sang that song all the time as a child! I used to sing the song to my kids when they were tots, and my daughters told me they always loved when I sang that song! I never knew all the lyrics to the rubber ducky song, but now I do! RUBBER DUCKIE Ernie Continue reading...
Creating Photo Books at a Discount
© Pbclub | Dreamstime Stock Photos & Stock Free Images My husband is an avid photographer, so whenever we go anywhere, he takes lots and LOTS of pictures. Which is great, because I love preserving memories of my kids and all the fun things we do together. One way I do that is by creating custom photo books by designing photo books online and then having them printed and shipped to me, which is a really quick and easy way to preserve photo memories! One place I like to create my photo books is at York Photo. Photo Mementos When my husband and I have photos of events we've shared with Continue reading...

2013 Year in Review
Happy 2014, everyone! I can't believe that 2013 is over! Last year was a busy one here at Mom Home Guide. So, before launching my new projects for 2014, I am going to share the best of what I accomplished in 2013! Here is my 2013 Mom Home Guide Year in Review. Burlap Crafts Burlap was popular in 2013, so like many crafters, I jumped onto the burlap bandwagon in 2013. It was fun! Two of my favorite burlap crafts I completed was my stenciled no-sew burlap valance for my home's downstairs powder room, and my no-sew fringed burlap table runner. Both projects were problem solvers, as I was having Continue reading...
