A Simple Easter This Year!

...no pun intended!

For reasons unannounced, mama could not partake in the Easter egg coloring this year!

So, we are keepin' it simple...

I think the kiddos did a nice job!

Happy Easter Everyone!!!

Land of Nod Pillows!

I love the shop "Land of Nod"! Even better than it's more preppy counterpart "PBkids!"

They always seem to be so up to date with the color and pattern trends! I especially love their new line of accent pillows!

So far I have found the right pillows for 2/3's of my children. Still waitng on a sport or football themed pillow for my oldest guy!

My 6yr. old has a new love of pirates, and with his bedroom already nautical themed, these pillows went perfectly!

-The "Anchor's Away" throw pillow was $16

-The "Yo Ho" throw pillow was $19

For my daughter's room, these mustard yellow felt flower pillows enhanced the colors in her room so much more!

-The two "Yellow Bedding Bouquet" pillows were each $24

Yayy for fun finds!

Thanks,

Sarah

Wishing for Spring Party!

Every now and again my mommy friends and I like to get the kiddos together so they can play, and we can totally relax in peace! ;)

A little sarcasm there...

Either way its enjoyable, and someday we will miss the craziness!!!

Christopher, enjoying his favorite!

 Yum!

 Poor Luke, girl toys galore!!!

 Cousins

 Luke, loving the cupcake!

 Mommy snacks... "Spring" rolls...

 Photo shoot time!

 Yea, not happenin'!

 Poor Ella!

Small Space Kitchen!

In a dream or distant future, I may have a big open kitchen. With cathedral ceilings and all the storage imaginable. Until then I will have to make use of the space I have. Although, still a work in progress as new ideas come to light...

This is what I have come up with so far...

 Shelves to replace the old shabby cabinets.

 Still waiting on the hubby to put in a second shelf over the existing one.

 My farmhouse sink (from Ikea) gives me plenty of space for dirty dishes... With three kids there are plenty of those!

 Chalkboard paint anywhere I can fit it for little reminders.

 Platter rack built by my loving husband.

 Hanging pots, to take away from bending over, and making too much noise searching under cabinets.

With a little imagination there is a lot you can do with small spaces!

Thanks!

Sarah
