Stoli Girl & the Finger Puppet

Sounds like a great title to an even better book and if it was a book, it would be filled with suspense, worry, heartache but a very happy ending or at least what looks like to be a very happy ending. It all started on Wednesday night. Justin had left for softball and it was […]

Brookside St. Patrick’s Day Parade

What gorgeous weather we received for our annual St. Patrick’s Day Warm-Up Parade in Brookside. Last year might have been a little chilly but the sun was at least out, this year we got rain, clouds and cold weather but were weren’t going to let that stop us. The parade was scheduled to begin at […]

Family Feud Auditions

Our family LOVES the Family Feud. We honestly watch it most every day & it’s always on when we are together as a family. So you better believe that when we saw tryouts were coming to Kansas City that we were going to do whatever needed to get an audition. We started thinking about ideas […]

Friday Night Project—Striped Accent Wall

It’s never really good when I get bored at home because I end up starting a project with merely what I have on hand. I’ve been wanting to do a striped wall but each of the walls I picked out Justin vetoed but finally I found a wall that he didn’t mind me experimenting on—or […]

Stoli Girl is 11!

11 years old and counting. She’s kind of our first baby. Ever since she was little her favorite pastime remains sleeping but now she has to find a little bit more space to sprawl out on. Without fail, every morning as the sun is coming up and shining through our windows she plays a game […]

Downtown Lee’s Summit Days

It had been such a long and draining week for me at work and I wasn’t really looking forward to doing anything, let alone a carnival but I couldn’t say no to the boys knowing that they would have so much fun. So we went. & I was glad we did. We were invited by […]

Knockoff RH Shelves

I have been wanting to tackle this specific project for multiple months now–maybe a year but with the weather being a tad chilly I just kept pushing it off. Well, that luckily changed a few weekends back and with a beautiful weekend forecast ahead of us I headed to Home Depot and took my shopping […]

Mr. Fishlegs & his KINDNESS quest

Since it is only days away from Fishlegs making his final trip back to the North Pole with Santa I figured I should recap the adventures he has brought to our home this year. I’ve already written about how this holiday season we were going to really focus on being KIND and bringing smiles to […]

Holiday Hunks

Before leaving for Kaden’s Christmas program I took the boys out to the cul-de-sac for a quick 5 minute photo shoot. Logan hated the buffalo plaid shirt that I got him from Gap but since it was going under his H&M This Boy Rocks shirt he put it on. I honestly have no idea what […]
