Ever since we moved into this house four years ago, whenever I go into the living room, I get the feeling that we just recently bought it. Everything seemed very sparse and icy. So this weekend, I decided that enough was enough and threw the family into a redecorating frenzy. We had about six spots [...]

Painting

Posted in Button, Home, tagged , , on July 11, 2011 | 4 Comments »

Today we had some time to kill in between Vacation Bible School and yoga for kids, so, I decided to be “cool mom” and let Button finger paint. I don’t know why I ever expect finger paint to stay on fingers. However, doesn’t this look like so much more fun? Leave it to an (almost) [...]

A couple of weeks ago, I was browsing around the dollar store, letting Button pick out Father’s Day presents (this is the best idea ever. For Christmas, she got him an “It’s a Girl!” balloon!) and I came across packages of paper drink umbrellas. I remembered this idea that I had seen over at Family [...]

Herbs

I was browsing around the old Internet the other day, and I ran across this awesome tutorial for a hanging herb planter from Under the Table and Dreaming.  I really loved the simple but surprising look of the design, so I quickly came up with plans for making one of my own. I actually found the cups [...]

New Day, Nutella

I was recently chosen by Mommy Parties to host a party based on the yummy substance known as Nutella. Honestly, I had never eaten it before. My only experience with the stuff has been watching Giada on Food Network make amazing looking crepes and sandwiches. The party pack contained some awesome looking recipes such as [...]

Don’t judge!

Okay, I don’t normally write poetry. In fact, I haven’t written any since I was in high school. And back then it was the typical, “I am whiny and miserable and sixteen” sort of stuff. One of my teachers told us we could receive extra credit points if we wrote something inspired by a piece [...]

Monarchs

Last night, after dinner and before “bimnastics,” we were watching a new PBS show called The Wild Kratts. I think. The premise is that two brothers, I THINK they’re brothers… use “animal powers” to save the day, all while giving an incredibly in depth lesson of the animal at hand. The animal of the day, [...]

Sun

Yesterday it was warm enough that the snow finally melted. We spent most of the day out at my in laws house in the country. Button and I went on a nice long bike ride and it was fantastic to be in the outdoors. Sometimes I forget about how much I love bike riding and [...]

Snow

Posted in Button, Home, tagged , on December 29, 2010 | 1 Comment »

We have been inundated with snow here on the East coast since Christmas night. I would love to say that it’s beautiful and lovely, etc, etc, but I can’t. I simply hate it! There’s nothing to do and we can’t really leave the house. Button enjoyed playing outside the first couple of days, but now [...]
