Summer is all about traveling to new places and spending time with friends. So today, I am hopping over to Curly Crafty Mom, which is my blogging friend, Carrie's blog! Today I am sharing all about a simple kind of meal that I like to prepare for my family in the summer. Picnic Dinners! Picnic dinners or meals require very little fuss, no cooking, and are a lot of fun. Picnic dinners are the most enjoyable outside, but you could even spread a blanket indoors and watch a movie on the DVR during your picnic. Check out my post on Carrie's blog (Curly Crafty Mom) for a list of Continue reading...

A big thanks to them for partnering with me to bring you this post. #XfinityMoms This past February, I reached my fourth anniversary as a blogger. The years have flown by quickly!

All opinions are mine alone. #FamilyPizzaCombo #CollectiveBias Now that spring is here and it is so beautiful outside, my family and I have been enjoying dinners out on the patio! Sometimes, though, it can be a lot of work to prepare a weeknight dinner out on the patio! I have to cart all our plates, cups, napkins, etc., from the kitchen, as well as all the food! Plus, with our busy weeknight schedules, I sometimes don't have a lot of time to cook during the week. I make weekly shopping trips to Continue reading...

New Jersey Day Trip: Sayen Gardens
My daughters were off from school two weeks ago on spring break, so I took the opportunity to enjoy local sights with them. One place I took them to was Sayen Gardens, located in Hamilton Square, NJ, just about 17 minutes from our home. The gardens are in Mercer County, NJ, not far from Princeton, NJ. Sayen Gardens is one of my favorite places to visit with my daughters! The park has free admission and has so many beautiful places to explore! There are ponds, walking trails, beautiful gardens, gazebos and woodlands. When we visited on my daughters' spring break, we even saw a heron Continue reading...

Six Adorable Easter Ideas
Happy Wednesday, everyone! Today I am sharing six really great ideas for Easter! I co-host the Motivation Monday and the Craft Frenzy Friday linky parties, and there were so many fun Easter ideas shared! So I picked six of my favorite Easter egg and Easter decor ideas from those parties! I love coloring Easter eggs for my kids and decorating my home for the holiday! I haven't done any Easter decorating in my home this year so far, but last year I did create a cute Easter bunny wreath for my home. I also have a really simple Easter flag that I sewed for my garden: For Continue reading...
After-School Frozen Banana Bites
My tween daughters always make me smile -- especially when they come home with stellar report cards! To celebrate their hard work, I decided to do something extra sweet and fun for them. So, a few hours before they came home from school one day, I popped some sliced bananas into the freezer so the kids and I could prepare some fun and delicious frozen banana bites together when they got home from school! I sliced the pointed tips off my bananas so the banana pieces would be flat on both the top and the bottom. Just before my kids were due to walk through the door, I Continue reading...
