Stir Fry Chicken &Amp; Veggies &Raquo; Chicken Veggies Stir Fry Chopped Veggies For Prep 1

Stir fry is such a versatile dish that you can easily cater to the tastebuds of whoever you are entertaining.  There are hardly any veggies or meat options that won’t pair well for this dish.  Chicken and beef seem to be the standard, however pork and seafood are both great options as well.  One of our favorites though is stir fry chicken & veggies.

33 Favorite Books For Kids &Raquo; Oli And Addi All Gussied Up For Baby Shower 1

How do I know these are favorite books for kids you might ask?  Well…we attended a baby shower for my niece, Olivia.  She lives in a different state than all of the attendees of the shower.  Therefore, gifts were mailed directly to her home.  (That could get a little crazy getting all those gifts home, right?)  However, what is a baby shower without gifts to open?  Sooo….everyone brought their favorite children’s book for her to open at the shower. Now, while I believe it is common to request books in lieu of cards these days, for this particular shower, people really threw their hearts... Continue Reading

I’m Glad My Mom Died By Jennette Mccurdy Book Review &Raquo; 27A1 1

I’m in awe!  I really don’t know how else to sum up my feelings after reading, “I’m Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy.  My first thoughts go to the old saying, “You never know what goes on behind closed doors.”  While I have learned this to be true as I have gotten older, this memoir smacks you in the face with the raw truth of this saying. Raising children creates many different situations as a parent that you never thought about when you first brought your sweet little baby home.  One of the biggest lessons that I worked hard to instill in our children was to always appreciate... Continue Reading

Sleepover And Spa Day With Grandkids &Raquo; Spa Day With Grandma And Young Girl Telling Stories
