37 Things I Would Tell My Younger Self
This week I celebrated my 37th birthday! Yep 37, but why do I feel so ancient? Not dinosaur ancient but like the 80s feels like it was 50+ years ago. Am I the only one?

Hate because here in Minnesota it's the official last month of summer and because it's back to school our check book goes dry with all the back to school shopping. You might also like July ...

5 Of My Favorite Kid’s Stores
When I talk about 5 of my favorite kid's stores, I'm really talking about how adorable AND affordable these stores are.

Aside from shopping at the Walmart or Target kid's departments, I feel most times that I get a better selection, quality and even better deals at the stores below. I also take into consideration: the ease of returns shipping ... Read More...
