Dr. Seuss FEVER

So IF I haven't mentioned we are moving on SATURDAY and I have been packing my entire home with no ones cough cough help. That is ok though because my husband works so darn hard he literally hasn't had the time off work to help any...


Here is a sneak peak of my new NO GROWN UPS ALOUD HOME I'll post photos when I am done. Just a lil insight to my theory on decorating...I live for my children now I want them to enjoy playtime , snack time anytime at our home and it be cheerful and a kid zone. I want my home to give them inspiration and allow them to daydream...I am breaking all the rules people have made on decorating by making it adult or contempory yada yada yada...I've chose bright colors..chalkboard spaces..polka dots and dr. seuss THIS is going to be fun.
Im so excited!
This is the shower curtain ,rug and towels I ordered from Pottery Barn. The sink style we are adding to our kids bathroom in anoter color. I plan on putting some sort of custom made canvas on the wall..probably with a quote from DR. SEUSS himself like  Today You are You, that is truer than true. no one alive is Youer than You.
Ps. I'm painting the walls yellow. :)

Easy -cheap! kids Halloween decor!

Well I have never REALLY decorated our homes yet since we have rented and unless its Christmas it just wasn't a priority...but now I am so into it and want to go ALL out for every theme...
So all of you Halloween crazed crafters are tempting me slowly to go crazy! lol
Here is one of many I am crazy about because I love for my kids to help do crafts and its SUPER CHEAP! I found this over at eighteen25 and she is so right kids go through milk like it's their job this should be a sinch before Halloween rolls around!!

what you'll need:


clean gallon milk jugs

black permanent marker

craft knife

string of clear low-wattage Christmas lights

step one: draw some spooky faces on your milk jugs.

step two: let your kids color in the faces while you bake a batch of cookies.


step three: using the craft knife (mom), cut a hole in the lower backside of the jug. about the size of a half dollar (or maybe a little bigger since i couldn't picture a half dollar).

step four: line all of your ghosts up and stuff several lights in each one.

step five: place your group of glowing spirit jugs along your walkway or front porch to welcome those cute little holiday guests.

Smokey Mountains VACATION

This passed week my family went on an amazing vacation. I will be the first to admit I whined and complained like a spoiled brat to my husband that it just didn't sound fun...and I wanted a beach..and the list went on and on. His family have started a tradition of going there when he was a child so I couldn't wrap my head around why in the world have these people not had enough of seeing wilderness and mountains!! Well let me tell you I ate my words! It is the most beautiful & peaceful yet fun & exciting place for a family to go~ I recommend it now to everyone with children or even without! We rented a huge one story cabin and to name a few activities..took the kids to the Ripley's Aquarium, rode ATVs throughout the mountains, had an "old time photo" taken, rode horses through the mountains,went to a 5 & under amusement park perfect for my babies, and lots n lots of shopping! O and the best part my hubby took me on a date in a private helicopter ride through the mountains wow I was just cheesin the whole time here's some photo's enjoy!! AND GO VISIT GATLINBURG/PIGEON FORGE TN!!! <3

HA ! I can't help but to laugh when I look at my computer picture files of crafts I'd like to attempt or make my own version for my kids rooms, or clothes, or even house decor! WOW there really is over 1000 saved no joke! I have a bag full of baby clothes for each child I plan to cut into squares and quilt together..a cabinet full of bow making items, and empty canvases I bought when I had planned to paint something spectacular! Ah yes and a huge display of fabrics I loved but need to learn how to sew before I can make clothes etc! lol
At least I am not completely hopless I do take 1 day a month to do a scrapbooking marathon with friends from 9am-9pm but I usually keep at it till 1!~ haha...

How do you crafty mothers and well woman make time for doing them??!! Don't your children get into the mess??!! Will Someone let  me know! lol
