I really thought this whole unicorn thing would be a phase. But no, here we are five years in to yet another holiday cycle with wishlists filled with fantasy.
My 6-year-old is so serious about this topic that she specifically requested a "unicorn AND alicorn birthday party."
I...didn't realize there was a difference.

I'm back with another video game post! Shana has released me from the video editing room for a short time to gush about all the games I love, the ones I want to play, and some I'm reallllly curious about. These aren't in any particular order of favoritism, but I will add notes with what platforms they're available on!...
To know my six-year-old, Elise, is to know her unbridled joy for everything life has to offer.
The nondescript donut place in town? The best ever.
The park around the corner? AWESOME.
So it was no "surprise" to me when the first thing to come out her mouth, when she opened up the box of Surprise Powerz Dolls, was "THESE...
I think one of the most daunting things about walking into an art store is the 4,000 types of paper and 800 types of pencils lining the walls. If you have someone in your life who loves comic books or is looking to start drawing, I've gone uber-hard finding some cool gift ideas for them. I’ll keep it short...

Routines for getting ready for school, routines for after-school activities, routines for homework schedules, and routines for family meals at home. No more ice cream and boardwalk fries for dinner...PLEASE! Cooking those weeknight family meals, though, I could do without.
I actually enjoy cooking for crowds…Thanksgiving...

I live under a mile from Kohl's -- it's one of the few department stores we have in Marquette (Michigan). I've spent countless hours there, shopping for everything from baby clothes and makeup (they now have Sephora!!), to sheets and towels and vacuums, and other random things that have...
I first beat Mike on our honeymoon. We were staying at some small B&B in California, and it was raining that day. Moodily, we poked around the nooks and crannies of the ground floor, until we came upon a window seat, complete with a chessboard. It was one of those beautiful, carved things — we were immediately drawn in....

"I'm wearing this exact outfit on the first day of school!" Greenlea said after we took these (adorable) pictures of her and her brother.
I had to pat myself on the back because I have been striking out when it comes to picking out her...

We love a high-top in this house. Having grown up seeing my stepdad rocking a pair of classic white Converse Chuck Taylors and then later adopting the look myself, it's so fun to see that I've successfully passed on my appreciation of them to my own kids.
