Frozen Strawberry Yogurt Pops

February 14, 2013

As you can imagine Valentine’s Day with a house full of surfers isn’t exactly dripping in crimson and fuchsia, nor is it bursting with balloons and I am more than okay with that. Don’t get me wrong I adore romance, flowers and chocolates from my three sweethearts and I enjoy spoiling them as well. We […]

My Grey Lady {Ocean}

February 13, 2013

The ocean with her myriad array of moods always leaves me spell bound but if I had to pick which of her moods I am drawn to the most it would be that of my grey lady.

Bananarama, Dole & Disneyland

January 31, 2013

As we finish our spring cleaning/get organized session I thought that you guys would enjoy a little trip down memory lane with me. A few months back I had the delightful opportunity to attend the first ever Banana Summit hosted by Dole Foods. As always hanging out with the wonderful people at Dole was a magical […]

Consistency Is Key {Organization}

January 11, 2013

Isn’t it amazing how we strive to surround our children with consistency? We search high and low for study tips, chore charts and such; anything that will possibly set them up for what we hope will be a successful future. Yet when it comes to ourselves, we miss the mark. At least I miss the […]

The Monday grind that is the first day back to school is swiftly coming to a close. Homework has been checked and packed away for tomorrow. Everyone has a satisfied belly from a wholesome meal. Our youngest has been tucked into a warm cocoon of blankets hopefully dreaming of boyish adventures. Patch is relaxing with his […]

Green Olive & Pimento Hummus {Giveaway}

December 18, 2012

Please tell me that I am not the only one who’s pants are getting a little bit harder to button right now? Between all the holiday parties and batches of Christmas cookies, it is easy to snack my way into an extra 5 lbs of cuteness in no time. That is why I always try […]

DIY Coastal Christmas Card Screen

December 13, 2012

Receiving Christmas cards is such a joy. The anticipation of discovering what creative treat awaits inside each envelope is part of the holiday magic. Yet my dilemma has always been finding the best place to display our cards. I have tried ribbon down the bookcase but I left behind tape marks. That is why this […]

Southern S’mores Cookies & Camp Monkey

December 10, 2012

Our boys will probably never sleep in their rooms again and it’s all my fault. Yes siree, I have started something that is going to be difficult to break purely out of selfish reasons. As y’all know, I do not sleep well when Surferboy is traveling. His trips typically result in a sleep-deprived zombie due […]

Introducing Patch…aka Monkey One

December 3, 2012

It is hard to believe that three years ago I shared Monkey One’s twelfth birthday with everyone. Where has the time gone? When did we go from Nintendo DS to iPhones? From riding our bikes around the neighborhood to getting a drivers permit in T-minus 3 days? The fleeting passage of time when it comes […]
