Happy 4th Of July
I’m going to keep this short and sweet. Probably the shortest post you will ever see from me. Have a happy and safe 4th of July to your family from mine. You already know why this post is short and sweet? That’s right; I gotta get me some sleep cause I have some things to do to prep for tomorrow evening. Gotta get my outfit right and take a run with the hubby, which will result in a nap before my real day begins. Lol Anywho, keep scrolling.

We Are A Stinky Family
There’s no denying that we are a bunch of stinky people up in my house. We work and play hard, and since moving to Hawaii, we’ve become even more active and stinky. Many of our days consist of hanging out at the barn, softball field, pool or gym. Or should I say, garage? If we aren’t there, we may be on a hike or chilling at the beach. Either way, we are active and sweaty.

Summertime Projects to Keep Kids Busy
Here it comes, the moment that kids have been anticipating since Christmas… summer break! How you feel about summer break might be a little different, though. I mean, sure, it’s nice to have more opportunity to spend quality time with your kids. Summer is a great time for family activities, parties, and vacations. However, it doesn’t take long for those days to stretch out and feel empty. In my house, it only takes a few weeks before kids come up to me complaining “I’m bored!” And we all know what happens when kids get bored… chaos!

Little Divas Glamming Up Their Style
This house is full of Divas. A house of 4 Divas can be a bit interesting. Add a house of Divas with a lot of hair and living in Hawaii makes it even more interesting. Yes, the weather is always beautiful, but add humidity and natural hair to the mix. Boy, oh boy. I came across our new best friend to continue to be Divas and practical….hair tie holder bracelet. BOOM! Yeah, continue reading. My kids leave the house with really cute hairstyles every morning. By the time they come home, it looks like a comb never touched their hair. Heck, it’s the same with my hair too. Between hiking,…

Incest – How It Can Change Your Child’s Outlook on Life
There is a huge difference between the exact definition of a family and what people think it mean. People suppose that husband and wife, living peacefully with their 2-3 kids, is a family. The truth is the exact different. A family means fighting over the TV remote. A family means yelling at everyone over petty things and later feeling bad about it.

Then, in the few moments that are left, people that love each other and would sacrifice anything for each other’s well-being and happiness.

Listen To Your Kids-They Do Know Best (Sometimes)
If you’re like me you do not believe kids know best about their lives. They are still young, learning and need guidance. Well, sometimes kids DO know best. We don’t always want to listen to them, but we must admit when they are correct. It’s Spring Break, and I wanted to hit the Island for some fun in the sun. My lovely children have other plans. They just want to lounge around the house ALL week. They don’t want to do much at all; they just want to stretch out on the couch and watch T.V. every day.

A Mom’s Trip Down Memory Lane Of Toys For 3 Years Olds
As we explore our new neighborhood, I see a lot of little preschoolers. This got me thinking about all the fun toys my kids played with at this age. My mind goes into overdrive each and everyday thinking of all the favorite toys for 3 years olds. And of course, I had to ask my kids what their favorite toys were at age 3. I’m not sure if they really remembered or not, but they did chime in.
