Mandalorian Watch Party Ideas

This post contains affiliate links. Thanks for supporting my site.

Are you watching season 3 of the Mandalorian? My family is OBSESSED! We have been waiting with so much anticipation for this new season and we can hardly wait for the episodes to come out each week. My kids, who are growing up in a world where whole seasons are released at once, are very confused by this system. I tried to explain to them what it was like once upon a time when you had to catch a show on a certain day at a certain time, but I’m pretty sure they thought I was making it up.… Read the rest

St Patrick’s Day Gift Tags

I have two tags for you today, one is more of a gift tag that could be paired with any fun gold or green treat. It would be great for teachers, neighbors, your kiddos, anyone that needs some love! The other is perfect for the Leprechaun to leave behind if he wants to leave any consolation prize for children trying to trap him.

I'm so luck to have you St Patricks Day gift tags. Perfect for teacher appreciation, or a fun little surprise for your kids.
Use these St Patrick’s Day Gift Tags to show teachers some appreciation

Chocolate coins, Andes mints, caramel Ghirardelli’s, these would all pair perfectly with these gift tags. Even tie them onto a box of Lucky Charms and leave it on the kitchen counter for your kids to see!… Read the rest

This post contains affiliate links, thanks for supporting my site!

One of my most popular posts on the blog is my Harry Potter party! But it is a really long post with a daunting amount of detail. So I’m working on breaking it down into more bite size chunks. Today I’ll cover just the decorations.

For our Harry Potter Party I focused the decorations in two areas: my entryway which I tried to transform into an area where the kids could be sorted and then get a wand and broom (so I guess a Diagon Alley type feel). And then my dining room which I tried my best to transform into the Great Hall at Hogwarts.… Read the rest

Service Santa, a Christmas Family Tradition

I want to share a simple tradition that our family has that has brought a lot of joy and Christ-like feelings during the Christmas season for us. It’s so easy for us (and our kids!) to start thinking a whole lot about ourselves during the holidays. What do I want for Christmas? How many presents am I going to get? What is Santa going to bring ME? I feel like this little tradition has helped get the focus off of “me, me, me”, at least a little, and thinking of others.
