Back to School Part 2
If you’ve been following my posts, you know I started a group of posts that list some of my favorite school supplies.

Back to School Part 1
“Back to school. Back to school.” I am hearing Adam Sandler’s voice singing that! The new school year is fast approaching. A lot of schools here in Texas are starting to send out their options for the new school year and some are releasing what in person school will look like. Parents and schools have …
Rock Hunting
Have you heard of rock hunting, or painted rocks, or The Kindness Rock Project? In our area we have this project and I LOVE it! The kids love it too. People paint rocks and then hide them around our city to brighten someone’s day. Most of the rocks say keep or rehide so you could …

Simple and Delicious Tacos

July 4th Crafting and Learning
July 4th is right around the corner. Like it is in a few days. How did we already get to July?? I admit my concept of time has been way off since we have been home since March so maybe that’s why I can’t believe we are in July. Some days it feels like we …
