Tonight was pretty much like every other night. Becky and I made dinner, fed the kids, gave them baths and tucked each one of them in. However, tonight we had to pack for a little trip. Anytime we plan to leave, we make sure the house and all chores are pretty much done. Well… at…
A company that cares
Thanks to prAna for being my sponsored partner for today’s post – it’s important to share messages like this and I’m glad to have a company that supports it. In church a few weeks back, we heard the story of a child that kept wanting to give: give her money, give her toys, give her…
Meatball Casserole
One of our kids favorite dinner nights (and mine) is when we make our Meatball casserole. It is easy to make and the kids will just love it. Trying to come up with dinner ideas can be tough, but sometimes you have to just think a little outside the box. Becky and I have been making…
One Ingredient Caramel Sauce
Becky and I love to eat foods the remind us of fall, go places that make us think of fall (football games for me and craft shows for Becky). There is barely a chill in the air and she has the pumpkin arrangements and leaf garland out for all to see. The smells…

Family Backyard Camping Tips
For some people, swimming is the epitome of summertime fun, but for me and the kids, backyard camping is what does it. When I was younger, I definitely enjoy going to campgrounds and camping out with my family, but when we can’t get away for a few days, we bring the campground to our backyard….
10 NEW ideas instead of electronics
This post contains affiliate links to products that we have. Not a day goes by where our kids don’t ask for their iPods or to watch a show. Becky and I aren’t “all or nothing” parents when it comes to electronics, but we do like to really limit it. We like when the three…
Find a Common Interest with your kids…Embrace it.
It can be hard to find a common interest with your kids but when you find it …Embrace it. Struggles for parents out there come in many forms. One may be trying to connect with your child on a special level, or finding that one common interest. So how do you find the common interest…
