I have been blogging for about 8-ish years now, and one thing I never get tired of blogging about is pumpkin.

DIY Easy Jack-O-Lantern Felt Play Set
My youngest daughter loves felt play sets. Over the years we have created pizza felt kits and ice cream felt kits for her as they help to entertain and keep her quiet for times like when we are at church or elsewhere.

Air Fryer Pumpkin Empanadas
I admit to being hesitant to jump on the whole air-fryer band wagon, but Jen’s Guy was fully enamored with the idea of them and has been wanting one for quite some time. So like the old married couple we are, a few weeks ago to celebrate 21 years of marriage I gifted him an air fryer. My previous hesitancy …

What You Can Do To Prepare Your Child For An Active Shooter Situation
I saw a post on Facebook recently about a mom who made a tee shirt she wore to drop her kids off at school on their first day. The shirt said, “A teacher’s commitment to a child’s learning should equal your commitment as a parent.” I loved this shirt and would suggest that in fact our commitment as a parent …
Northern Italy: Milan, Turin and a Return To Paris
I promised myself that I would finish off our Paris trip recap before the summer ended. Technically that didn’t happen, but it’s still summer for some of you reading this so it counts right?!

Back To School Graham Cracker Stick Pencils
Remember when my family got out of school back at the end of May? Well there is a pay-day for that early release, and that means that we start back to school tomorrow on August 1st. Yikes!
