One year ago today I started this blog, and what a year it has been! I have learned so much about the blogging world that I had no clue about when I was first starting off. Throughout the year I have met, and talked to many other people that show interest in starting a blog […]
Olaf Themed Birthday Party!
I don’t know about all of you, but Frozen is still going strong in our house. My daughter just discovered it a few months ago (she’s two) and goes around talking about Elsa and Ana daily… But the true Frozen lover in our house is my 5 year old son…and to be even more specific […]
Love Yourself Challenge
