This project was originally slated for the summer/fall but due to construction delays the organizing couldn't begin until the week before Christmas. It was worth the wait through because we had the ... Keep Reading >>

I'm kicking this week off with an awesome giveaway from CyndiBands. A reader shared these cool hairties with us during our summer Hot or Not?! series.

Personal Shopping For Kids: Let’s Go For a Dip!

It is tough to find enough options for kids ages 2 and older that are cute and "baby" like. I am always looking for cute ... Keep Reading >>
