This year I decided we needed a big printable summer countdown. We love a good countdown here. I’ve been making them for years, but I wanted to do something quick and easy this time. It’s working great so far! The boys enjoy taking a day down at the end of each of our school days….
For years I’ve been trying to find a chore chart system that works for us, and I’ve finally figured out an amazing chore chare that finally works. We’ve tried all kinds of ideas. From the time our oldest was old enough to have chores, I thought it was a nice idea for him to have…
I’m excited about planning spring break this year! We’re staying home as we usually do for spring break, and I’ve learned that it’s best to have some kind of plan, or the week will fly by and feel wasted. Though we’re not going anywhere, I know we’ll have a fun time doing some different things…
These Easy Kid’s Slime Valentines are a great alternative to candy valentines and can be put together quickly with the free printable.
This picture collage would make a super cute gift anytime, but it’d be especially great for Valentine’s Day! We made it for the boys’ grandma on her birthday last year. As you can see, there was some sillyness with the picture taking, but that made it even cuter in my opinion! I chose a different…

When I first started blogging, one of the first things I found and tried on another blog was 14 Days of Valentines. It’s a cute and easy way to celebrate Valentine’s Day, AND it can also be fairly inexpensive too! I haven’t done it in several years but decided to go for it again this…
I was cleaning up some files this afternoon and found this Savings Chart I made for Big Brother some time back. It worked great for him and was a nice way to see how close he was to his goal to saving enough for a certain toy he wanted. Click the image above to download…
Today we get to find out if the baby is a girl or a boy! I’m excited, because this means I can really start planning and getting things ready. The Big Guy can’t make it to the ultrasound though, so I threw together the card above. I’m going to ask the ultrasound tech to circle…
