My middle daughter Rebekah is known for her headbands. As her signature styling piece, we have fun incorporating various holiday themes into her hair accoutrements. And so this week we turned our attention to St. Patrick’s day in an effort to make sure she was pinch-proof. Here is what we came up with, and with a little semi-homemade cheat, you …

Donut Valentine’s Day Printable Tags For Everyone!

Last Valentine’s Day I shared a simple little donut card you could share with someone you love, but this year I created a new variation of that same card. Why you ask?

Share These Sugar Cookie Bars With Someone You Love
Two magical things happened this Christmas. The first was someone dropped off a plate of sugar cookie bars that were so good they left me wondering how I had made it to the ripe old age of 40ish and never had one before?! The second magical thing was the gift of brand new baking sheets. Now since the alignment of …
