Hi! Welcome to our link party for this week. I’m super happy to have you here and have you join in this week.

Real Family Fun Link Party

I think it was last week that I wrote that things has settled down a little bit and we had a little break. I guess that was the calm before the storm because this week has been so busy it has been a little nuts. I think it will remain this way for a little while, so I just better hang on and enjoy the ride! 🙂

My girls and I participated in Race for the Cure. The girls ran the kids run, then all three of us walked the full 5k course. Snowflake and Pumpkin did such an amazing job. They had been looking forward to doing this race for a year now, so they were so proud of themselves and I was so proud of them as well. We raced in honor of my Aunt who just started Chemo on Friday…I sure thought about her a lot while we were out there. The girls ended up with two medals each. One for running the kids race and one for walking the 5k. They were proudly clinking as they walked around following the race.

Also this week, Pumpkin (my 6 year old) had a farm tour one day and her first riding lesson another day. She has wanted to taking riding lessons for about a year now. She was so excited! I was able to find a place that is very reasonable with the fees and the woman who give the lessons is soo nice. She also has leftover shoes and helmets, etc. So we haven’t had to purchase all of those expensive items yet. Pumpkin has taken to her lessons very quickly. Already learning how to hold the reigns, whoa, turn right and left, getting to trot and ride without the stirrups. She appears to be quite the natural and she is loving every minute!

This week on the blog, I shared with you a fully planned Daisy meeting to earn the red petal, courageous and strong. I showed you my solution for that dreaded afternoon question, “Mommy, can I have a snack?” I also gave you our latest family game. This game is a Hamburger relay race, perfect for Memorial Day.

    Congratulations to you and your family for walking for a worthy cause. I pray that your aunt will be victorious in her fight against cancer. I lost my identical twin sister to cancer of the stomach. Thanks for hosting.

      Thank you, Judy! Thank you for my thoughts about my Aunt. I’m sorry about your sister. That must be so hard to have lost your twin. I can’t even begin to imagine.
      Take care,

    I think it’s great you teach your kids early about the importance of helping others. I feel like so many kids don’t know what it’s like to do something for someone else, so starting them with charity stuff early is great.

    I’m also impressed they did the 5k on top of the kids run. I’m sure when I was their age I wouldn’t have managed to do that!

    Thanks for hosting again this week. 🙂

    It was great to meet you KC — I love the idea of running/walk a race with your girls. I’m very impressed that your youngest was only six. I know that it is a challenge sometimes to keep them going. (at least it has been the case with my kids.) Great job.

      It was so great to meet you as well! I really enjoyed doing the race with my girls, too. It was longer that way, but it was a nice time with them.
      Take care,
      KC

Who could use some fun about now? It's been a roug Who could use some fun about now? It's been a rough year for literally the world. As moms, I think we have taken a huge hit as well. The demands placed on us this year seem to have tripled. I think it's time to have a sucker - maybe made out of wine 😂 and plan something fun or maybe even just 5 minutes alone or without a kid needing us. 🤣 #5minutesformom #realmoms⁣

The thought of celebrating the 4th of July seems s The thought of celebrating the 4th of July seems so weird to me this year, not only with social distancing but also seeing all the failures of our country, it makes me feel a little less like celebrating. I love these simple stars I made last year. 🤩 They feel kinda perfect for this year....just a nod to 4th of July and a bigger nod to cuteness. 😉  You can learn how to make them at the link in my bio @realcreativerealorganized ⁣

As I've been sharing in my stories for the last we As I've been sharing in my stories for the last week, I realize there are much bigger world stories. For our family story, today holds a graduation! What a year to graduate! For a kid who doesn't really want to graduate and enter adult life, it sure has been a rocky transition. All the fun stuff that ends a high school career just disappeared for her after she worked so hard to get there, like so many other seniors. We know it is for a good reason, but it stinks to be a Senior this year. Today, we celebrated with a social distancing "individual" graduation. I'm so grateful our school district found a way to celebrate their accomplishments and I'm so proud of the woman my daughter has become. I can't wait to see what the future brings for my smart and kind math and science nerd of a daughter. 🤓😍 ⁣
