Moana Birthday Party Decorations | Moana Themed Ideas for the Perfect Party

Moana Birthday Party decorations

Hello Everyone!

My daughter absolutely loves Moana (more specifically Maui).  So I wanted to share my Moana Birthday Party decorations we did with all of you.  Obviously we are huge Disney Fans if you didn’t catch that from this post, this post, or this post.  So when it came time for a Birthday Party theme, Moana was fitting.  We only have to watch the movie at least 4 times a week, but lets be real – it can be closer to once a day some weeks.  (If I’m being really honest we’ve watched the movie two times in one day before.)

It only makes sense to have  tropical themed party in the dead of winter – bringing warm thoughts to thaw out the deep freeze. Come on Moana Themed Birthday Party – work your magic and melt away the snow! (I’ll sit here and wait – I clearly live in the wrong state)! [Read more…]

Dog Food Delivered | Easiest Way for Mom’s to Shop

This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #CheckYourPetFood #CollectiveBias

Hello Everyone!

I was very fortunate to have the opportunity to do this sponsored post.  All opinions expressed are my own after trying it out myself!

As many of you know I am a self proclaimed crazy dog lady! Always have been and always will be.

I’m also a mama to a beautiful baby girl.  The thing is, my daughter doesn’t like going in and out of stores and to be honest I don’t either.  I used to love to, but I live in Michigan and it’s cold here.  That means getting her in and out of her car seat multiple times, bundling her up because it’s freezing here, and making sure I packed enough snacks to get us through the store.  It becomes so much more of a chore.

Hello Everyone!

My daughter loves Moana! She sings and dances to all of the songs, it’s so cute.  So when her birthday rolled around the theme was Moana (Shocker right?!).

Defining Moments in Life | How my Daughter Fought for Her Life at Two Weeks Old

Hi Everyone!

I’ve waited a long time to talk about what’s in this post.  I briefly mentioned it in this guest post, but never on my actual blog.

Many of you know I have a beautiful little girl who is full of spunk, sass and life.  She recently turned two and I honestly couldn’t imagine my life without her.

Without question, being her Mama is the single most amazing thing I have ever accomplished in my life.

What some new follower’s don’t know, is the weeks surrounding her arrival were a difficult time for my family.  Fist off, getting her here was a challenge.  Cliff note version: 4 days of labor that ended in an emergency C-section where she was born not breathing.

Then came the hard part. [Read more…]

Top Ten Reality TV Shows to Watch | Binge Worthy Reality TV Sows

Follow my blog with BloglovinBinge Worthy reality tv shows

Hi Everyone!

I’m sure you know by now that Reality TV is a Shameless Guilty Pleasure of mine. Well I have a list of Binge worthy reality TV shows.

Reality TV is the perfect kind of show.  You can watch it and be entertained – while at the same time not have to be 100% attentive.  It’s the perfect kind of TV for a busy mom.  Or one who has watched a little more Mickey Mouse Clubhouse than they care to admit! *slowly*raises*hand*

I always say – it’s the kind of show that has a ‘plot line’ that really isn’t much of a plot line at all.

Top 10 Reality TV Shows to Watch

You can read all about my thoughts on Reality TV here – where I confessed my obsession with it. BUT this post is alllllllll about my favorite Reality shows to watch. In order! [Read more…]

The Best Way to Deck the Halls Without Breaking the Bank | After Christmas Clearance Must Buys

Hello Everyone!

Holiday Clearance finds are nothing short of amazing in my book – plus they can end up saving you a ton of money for the following year.  I always get excited for after Christmas Clearance – it’s almost as exciting as Christmas in my book!

I am one of those people who will show up at the store on the 26th of December right when they open.  Even back when I was very pregnant I was still there early in the morning, lumbering around the isles determined not to miss the good deals!

Obviously, you don’t want to get sucked into the hype too much (trust me – it’s easy) however there is something to be said about paying half price (or less) for Holiday decorations and items you know you will use the following year.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

So what are the items I Always buy After Christmas? [Read more…]
