Fall is definitely here where we live. We live on a lot with quite a few trees. We have to make lemonade from lemons in the fall because we have a LOT of leaves that fall in our yard. We figured, why not turn it into a great family fun event. My girls look forward to this every year! All you need for this family fun are leaves, your family (and another family or two if you like), s'mores fixing ... Read More about Fall Family Fun – Leaves & S’mores Party

Green Bean Casserole
So do you have Green Bean Casserole every year for Thanksgiving? I know we do and I always liked it because of those yummy, crunchy fried onion pieces on top, but I didn't like what it was made from. We prefer to eat whole, real foods rather than processed foods. One year when shopping at Trader Joe's I found a can of those oh so delicious crunchy fried onion pieces. Guess what? It had a recipe ... Read More about Green Bean Casserole

Thankful DIY Wall Art
I love creating quick and simple crafts. It also might be dorky to admit, but I've always wanted to be able to decorate my house for each season and/or holiday. We don't have the kind of budget that has allowed me to do that, until I figured out I could do a lot myself. I'm totally OK with that! In fact it is fun! I have made quite a few wreaths for holiday's/seasons, but I get bored easily, so it ... Read More about Thankful DIY Wall Art
