The Elf on the Shelf Travels
This is our first year doing the Elf on the Shelf. Ella really loves looking for her elf every morning and I often catch her chatting with her about Christmas and Santa. I’m not doing creative scenes and placement of the Elf just yet. I figure I don’t want to set the bar too high. … Continue reading
Airport Decorations
Christmas is right around the corner! All the airports are decorated and I’ve found there are some great displays for photo ops. If you’re headed to the airport OR if you live close to an airport, be sure to bring the camera and give the kids some time to admire the decorations! (Ella has always … Continue reading
Security…In a Light
It used to be that Ella couldn’t sleep unless the room was pitch black. A little shimmer of light and she was awake for hours. I am happy to trade that for her wanting it a little brighter in the room even if it does mean a few arguments about turning on the lamp. On … Continue reading

In fact, for those without kids, there is a lot to do without being surrounded by children. There are actually several … Continue reading

RIP Big Tex
The Texas State Fair is my favorite. Granted, I’ve only been to a couple other State Fairs, but still, I think the Texas one is the best. When Ella was 6 months old, we took her to the Texas State Fair for the first time. It was my plan to make it a yearly family … Continue reading

Disney and Laundry Soap We just had our first Disney experience, spending 3 days at Disney World and 3 days on a Disney Cruise. Needless to say, it was amazing! I’ll write more about it later, but today I bring you a small travel tip: Always bring small packets of laundry soap with you on … Continue reading
Travel Tip: Create a “Passport”
Whether you are frequent or first time fliers, I highly recommend starting a “passport” for your kids. A “passport” is a logbook so you can record each flight. I received a pre-printed one on one of my flights, but it would be easy to make your own. Just staple some papers together, draw some dividing … Continue reading
