Most of my kids’ memories of community Easter egg hunts include the fear of stampedes and the disappointment of slim pickings (just a couple eggs to take home)! So, a few years ago we decided to organize our own hunt for my teenagers and college kids. The Flashlight Easter Egg Hunt is definitely a family…
Puff Pastry Bites: 3 Ways
It’s that time of year when the NCAA goes dancing. (Or something like that.) I grew up watching basketball, and while I don’t know a single stat on a single soul who’s playing, I enjoy watching a good game. And any good game calls for some good food. So you’re spending more time cheering on…
10 Things for a Family-Style St. Patrick’s Day
It’s almost St. Patrick’s Day and time to get your green on. There’s nothing quite like being in Chicago for this Irish holiday with the dyeing of the Chicago River emerald green and one of the country’s largest St. Patrick’s Day parades. While living in Chicago we became leprechaun experts and a bit Irish at…
Family-Friendly Family Feud
I’ve wondered a few times in my life what it would be like to be on Family Feud. SURVEY SAYS: I don’t really want to find out. I’m pretty sure that I would have a mind blackout-either that or a laugh attack (probably because Kellie-sister #2- was already having one). Both of which…
Introducing, FROZEN Girls Camp
“FROZEN” word art from: http://lichu-editions.deviantart.com/art/Frozen-PNG-414485475 We are beyond excited for what we’ll be sharing over the next couple of weeks. Girls Camp. FROZEN style. So how did we decide to plan a week of Girls Camp activities, food, crafts, a Kick-off Night, decorations, and devotionals all around Frozen?
White Chocolate Popcorn Snowballs
This is the perfect treat for the FROZEN Girls Camp Kick-off or for any Frozen themed party. (Buy an extra bag of York pieces-just for you. I’m not a York girl, but these dark chocolate peppermint pieces hit the spot. And they really flavor the whole snowball!)
SOCHI Bingo
The first Olympics I really remember is the Atlanta 1996 games and the Magnificent Seven. I wanted Dominique Moceanu’s bangs and my sisters and I would run and jump off of a couple of stairs onto a landing and reenact Kerri Strug’s golden moment. Arched backs and injured foot and all, we would salute the…
Olympic Party: Sochi 2014
Last July, mom and dad made their way to London for the Olympics and then spent a few days traveling Germany and France. Dream vacation, right? Outside of getting married and having four lovely children, I’m convinced the best day of mom’s life was watching the Olympics at Wimbledon. Strawberries and cream and good tennis….
