All he wanted was a BITE! 😉
I was first introduced to essential oils by a very good friend. She gifted me a small bottle of Peppermint Essential Oil and I was hooked as soon as the crisp, yummy scent hit me! It smells clean and fresh and sweet, and is definitely a mood lifter. Being the nerdy girl I am, I had to Google the benefits of peppermint oil and how to use it. I found out that (to mention a few ways) you can use it to soothe headaches, to help you feel invigorated and motivated right before and during a workout, to improve your concentration, to help ease nausea, and the DoTerra Peppermint Essential Oil can even be taken internally (a drop in a glass of water or juice) for digestive problems. I couldnt wait to try it out for myself! What Exactly Are Essential Oils? Quick Q & A. 🙂 What are essential…

The Lorax (Buy it on Amazon.com) Release Date: 8/7/12 Universal Studios What Its About:The Lorax opens in Thneedvillea town never depicted in the original book. Thneedville is an artificial place, made primarily from plastic. It sports inflatable trees, fast cars, and air quality so poor that the residents are forced to purchase bottled fresh air. In another new twist to the story, 12-year-old Ted (Zac Efron) discovers that his crush Audrey (Taylor Swift) wants nothing more than to see a long-extinct Truffula Tree, so he sets out to impress her by finding one. Since there are no real trees in Thneedville, Ted acts on the crazy stories of his grandmother (Betty White), venturing beyond the citys walls into the desolate wasteland to locate a mysterious creature called the Once-ler (Ed Helms). Here the story and animation begin to more closely follow the book. Ted discovers the grumpy recluse, who reluctantly…
It all started with a rather unattractive unisex shirt that I didnt much like on me but the logo I did like! I wanted to convert it to something a little more flattering and more appropriate for the 90+ degree weather weve been having, so I set off on the search for the perfect tutorial. Jens tee-to-tank tutorial at CrafterHours is a WINNER! Its the easiest reconstruction Ive seen that ends up looking like something I would buy in a store! So after reconstructing a few tees in my closet, I turned to Emmas closet. And there was that super CUTE shirt that I love but the neckline is a little stretched out. I didnt know if shed ever get to wear it and have it look good. Jens tutorial is great, but I thought I would try to go into a little more detail here. 🙂 So heres how…

I found these huge books full of preschool activities and stickers at Costco for a great price awhile ago. Theyre part of the Gakken series and are so worth buying we love them! The illustrations are totally precious, and the pages are double-sided. I bought two different workbooks and they each have different types of activities in them. They say on the front what skills your child will be working on. For instance, this one has shapes, counting, drawing and coloring, and cutting and pasting activities inside. The other one we have has mazes, dot-to-dot, and alphabet activities. The activities are perfect for getting your child ready for school learning to follow instructions and comprehend the task assigned is a skill in itself for a three and four-year-old. 🙂 For example, following only the apples in the maze: and cutting and pasting patterns in the correct sequence: Theres plenty of…
I vividly remember being read to in the evenings by my parents as a kid, its one of those really great childhood memories that I know sparked my imagination and contributed to my love of reading and writing. A couple that I remember most clearly were Ginger Pye by Eleanor Estes and Owls in the Family by Richard Farley. Oh, and I remember reading the entire Little House on the Prairie series. My mom and dad would take turns reading to us while my sister and I lay sprawled out on the floor coloring and drawing pictures that corresponded to the stories. Books have always been an immensely important part of my life and I really want it to be the same for Emma (4) and as delightful for her as it was for me! I just started the same tradition with her, reading to her from the same book…
