Have a Ball with Fruit Shoot

August 6, 2014 by Julie 4 Comments

Thank you to Fruit Shoot for sponsoring today’s post, but my love for their juice and endorsing children’s imaginations is all my own! My Littlest is a high-energy independent little boy. And while he keeps me on my toes I'm glad his little spunky self is part of our family. We are very lucky that while we don't have a backyard we have a park right across the street from our apartment. As you can … [Read more...]

Texas History Roadtrip

August 5, 2014 by Julie 6 Comments

And we're back! The kids and I have spent the last week road tripping with my Mom through Texas. The twins will be in 7th grade this fall and studying Texas History.

I generally try to make sure the house is in order before we take a trip anywhere. (Coming home to a dirty house is kind of a bummer.) The laundry gets done before we leave (I will need clean clothes to pack). I also try to make sure the leftovers in the fridge and any produce get eaten so they don't spoil/get wasted while we are away. The desire to not let any fruit go to waste is directly … [Read more...]

Color-block Crochet Bag

July 29, 2014 by Julie 2 Comments

A vacation is the perfect reason to crochet a new bag. The kids and I are headed for a Texas history vacation with my Mom. We're visiting the state capital in Austin, NASA in Houston, and then relaxing with a beach day in Galveston. I based my crochet bag on the farmer's market bag pattern from Knit-O-Matic. I used a 3.75mm crochet hook for my bag. I also went a tan and lime green color block … [Read more...]
