Finally Back....

Our trip to Florida was an absolute hoot! This is our third year going and we just love going back. A 30 hour road trip with these 4 cuties was a snap... Lol. They are actually really great travellers. (warning, these are iphone photos so they're not the best quality)

My little beach bums

So I was totally oooing over a pair of mirrored Ray-Ban sunglasses, but I wasn't feeling the price since having four boys usually leads to them getting scratched or lost once they get their hand in them. But, I scored a pair of these  look a like sunnies from American Eagle for a fraction of the price. $15.95 here

Having a blast at Tampa Bay vs Montreal game 7!!!

During our drive back we made a stop at Magnolia Planation along a Georgia highway. So many peaches and pecans...yum! If you love pecans and have never tried one of these... Omg... So addicting. Didn't make it home though. It was a long drive and the snacking was constant... Lol

So now we are home and back at it. Lots to catch up on and get done. More posts to catch up on too. But now I've got about 20 loads of laundry to fold... Happy Saturday night :)

Happy Friday….

 

How hilarious is this? Troll doll or toddler?

My oldest son was begging to get a piece of his hair dyed green for hockey playoffs (his team is green). I wasn't sold on the idea of permanent hair colour yet so I settled on some spray in. He was happy and it looked pretty good. He's got brown hair, so the green was a bit darker. Well, when the boys left for hockey practice I couldn't help but put a tiny bit in Chandon's hair. Now this kid's hair is super blonde. Like white….lol. I totally hit the ground laughing and couldn't help but spray his whole head. Yup this 

is what we do for fun at this house. The kids just about died when they got home and walked through the door to see this guy running over to them. Gotta keep things fun in this crazy life….lol!

Happy Friday!

Pottery Barn Kids Lazy Susan

Ok, so I just HAD to blog about this. Recently I ordered a few pieces of furniture from Pottery Barn Kids (btw…totally happy with the purchases) I hummed and hawed about getting this and finally decided to go for it.
This little lazy susan is so simple yet so smart. It is just so nice to look at and so incredibly handy. I was not sure if its use would be any different then any other plastic container or bucket but it has become a handy goto homework organizer in our household. When Cohen has homework I pull out his books and plop the lazy susan in front of him. Everything he needs is there, nicely organized. And, he thinks it's neat so it makes him want to do his homework…hehehe.
I highly recommend this for any study space or craft area.
