Why You Should Travel with Little Kids

I was on Instagram recently, following a fellow Cape Cod mama (well, more like stalking because I admire her & DANG her outfits are on point!), and something in the comments on one of her posts struck me. Strangers on the internet were questioning why she would travel with her young daughter who "might not even remember" these trips. This stopped me in my tracks. Not travel with your kids because they are too young? This feels like utter nonsense to me, but apparently there ate those who be[...]

Galentine’s Day on Cape Cod: Brunch & Local Businesses I Love!

Last year, I wrote (what I considered to be) a cheeky blog post about Leslie Knope's famed holiday: Galentine's Day. Anywho, this year, I wanted to celebrate the women in my life while also supporting local businesses. I live in a small town on Cape Cod (yes, it's a real place where people live YEAR ROUND!) and COVID has done a number on some of the best mom and pop shops in the country. So, it was a part of my New Year's Resolution to shop more locally. I hopped on Instagram and me[...]

DIY Valentine’s Day Crafts for Preschoolers: Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas!

Valentine's Day Crafts for Kiddos Valentine's Day Crafts for Preschoolers & Toddlers: After Christmas can be hard for me. I feel like I gear up for it in late August and then on December 26th, it's all over. The tree comes down, the house feels naked, and I'm left with months of winter without a big holiday. I know. I'm whining. But I can't be the only one who feels this way, right? ENTER: Valentine's Day. I used to think this holiday was only for couples, heart-shaped choco[...]

Creating a Mad Scientist Lab for Halloween

This year, rather than Trick or Treating, we'll be in costumes with family. We want to keep the magic of All Hallow's Eve alive, so we're hiding candy around my brother's massive yard and painting pumpkins. What's spookier than being a mad scientist in a lab?! It's the perfect fit and easy to do at home.Since we're going to have a little more time on our hands, I wanted to create a fun (and educational - can't kick the teacher out of me!) activity for my preschooler. https://youtu.be/YwORO[...]

Autumn is a magical time in the world - leaves change color, the weather cools (#sweaterweather), and somehow everything smells of pumpkin and spice.

Disney’s Aulani: How to Plan Your Hawaiian Vacation!

Those are my toes! ALOHA! Let me tell you about the most beautiful place I’ve ever been (I’m sure you’ll never guess based on the title of this blog). It’s lush with palm trees, a gentle warm breeze pushes through them and you can hear the rustle of the wide leaves above. The sound of crashing surf is ahead of you and it smells like coconut, pineapple, and a hint of salt. This place oozes relaxation and slowing down. It truly is paradise. Welcome to Disney's Aulani!  https:[...]

50 Tips To Summer Magic: a Summer Bucket List!

Making Summer Magical I was on a little run recently and I was listening to a podcast that really hit home. The scenario introduced was 10 years in the future. You and your kiddo are sitting in the dining room. They are working on homework. The question they are asked is, "what do you remember about the time when COVID-19 impacted the world?" I quite literally stopped in my tracks. I pictured this SO vividly: sitting with Caleigh while I edit a video and she works on her laptop. She's pu[...]
