You’ve come to the right spot if you are looking for a little inspiration for your 60th birthday event. My Mother-in-Law is seriously the best. So it was SO fun to scheme with my sisters in law to throw her this surprise 60th! It was the most fun surprise birthday I have ever been a part of. I mean, my brother and sister in law came in from Idaho to be there! You should have seen her face when she walked in and saw them there!  60th birthday party ideas and printables

Milestone Birthday Ideas and Printables

*This post contains affiliate links, see my full disclosure here*

I had the honor of helping to throw a surprise 90th birthday party for my husband’s grandmother. Truthfully, I did very little. My Mother-in-Law, Sister-in-Law and some of her other children’s spouses did all the hard work! I just made a few printables and supplied the house ;). It turned out to be such a nice event, and truthfully, it was the happiest I have EVER seen her! (which was a relief because we were all a little nervous to surprise a 90 year-old).

Back to School Cake Banner

What are your back to school traditions? We don’t usually do anything too crazy or fancy, but we do like to have a little family night, either the day before or two days before, and pick a family motto! This is something we can remind ourselves of throughout the year, a goal of sorts, to help us all be successful. My husband also gives each of my kids special father’s blessings for the upcoming school year. And its always fun to end with a little treat.

We have Back to School night coming up pretty soon, and it’s always nice not to show up empty handed as we meet the person that will spend 180 days X 6 hours a day molding my child into the person he is becoming. Hah! But it’s true! I get them a few hours a day, but they get them… well, the rest! Always nice to make a good impression 😉back to school teacher gift idea and free printable

And if its one thing all parents & teachers can agree on is that Back to School germs are the worst!… Read the rest

2018 Primary Program Invitation

Every year for our primary program we like to give each primary child 2 invitations.  With the invitations we give the challenge that they use at least one of the invitations to invite a non-member.  This can be a friend, teacher, coach, neighbor, cousin- whatever! I think its a great missionary opportunity for the little ones, and we can all learn from their unabashed courage!
 As for the invitations, I made  2 different versions you can choose from depending on how much you want to customize it yourself. … Read the rest
