Birthday Cake Cookies + Tasty Tuesday Linky
Yesterday was little man’s 4th birthday. There wasn’t much we could do to beat the fun and excitement he already experienced at his birthday party over the weekend with our extended family. Nonetheless, we still wanted to make this a special day for him; this included dinner out with our little family and Birthday Cake Cookies made by myself and the little guy.

Handmade with Love by Canvas Champ #Giveaway
Last July, when we moved Colton decided he wanted to lend a hand. By that I mean he seen us cleaning everything and thought it would be a good idea to take a bottle of (locked) Febreeze and a wet cloth when we were preoccupied in another room and “spray” the wedding picture we had on canvas that we blatantly left sitting on the kitchen table.

The Complete Book of Home Organization by Tony Hammersley #Giveaway

As much as I hate to admit it – I’m getting old-er. In a few months I’ll be approaching my 35th–ahem I mean “25th” birthday–and even though I don’t always feel like it, the fine lines and wrinkles that are starting to form on my face are definitely showing my age. Having a skincare regimen has never really been too important to me but now that I’m starting to notice myself aging, I think it’s…
