It is time for another round of 52 Lists. Do you know Moorea Seal? She’s working through an entire year’s worth of journaling prompts. Very fun!

{Behind The Scenes} Rainbow Pinata Cake

Pinata cake

When it came time to decide on his 4th birthday cake, Malone had a very specific vision in his head. He wanted a rainbow sparkle keenata cake (for those of you who don’t speak preschooler, that’d be a rainbow sprinkle pinata cake). Where he got this idea, I’ll never know. But I’m pretty sure he [...]

52 Lists Week 3

Today’s list was a tricky one for me. I struggled a bit because of the language of the prompt surrounding the word “should.” I decided to go ahead and just list the things I AM proud of instead. Today’s prompt came from Moorea Seal’s 52 lists series. What things should you be proud of? Tell [...]

52 Lists- List Your Greatest Comforts

52 Lists Week 2

This week’s journal prompt is another fabulous one. I had a much much easier time coming up my greatest comforts than last week’s words that touch your soul. I think I could have gone on and on, but instead I stopped when my page was fullish. I’ve never taken the time to write these things [...]

DIY: Pack & Play Reading Fort

DIY Pack & Play Reading Fort

I’ve been wanting to make Malone a reading fort for a long time. For awhile, I thought about making a teepee. But with limited space at home, I really needed something that could be folded up and put away. Then, I had a light bulb moment that I am so excited to share with you [...]
