Cheap Art Supply Organization

It's a Bucket, Its a jockey It's a Art Supply Keeper! I have three small children, which equates to a LOT of art supplies! Pencils, markers, crayons, paper, coloring books OH MY. Things can get out of hand quickly, especially when little hands begin to tear boxes and so we run out of places to put things. You know the story..... markers in this drawer, coloring books all over the bed room, etc. Oh and for me since my children are all under six I also need to keep art supplies out of reach without supervision. (Yes yes we have drawn on walls in our house :( ) SO while looking on no other than pinterest, I found the perfect solution. Oh to Lowes we went this weekend, (as Walmart did not carry the bucket jokey). I rushed home and put together my project.


The Mom Challenge Week One

Did you know only 20% of families report to eating together? Yep one in five say they eat occasionally. Truly what is the big deal of eating as a family? I mean when else do we have our kids stationary where we can talk to them and give them quality time. How about all of these benefits as well?

Child Safety Tip

How often do you take your kids shopping, the park, the mall, let them walk to school, etc? I am a BIG BIG worrier when it comes to my kids. After all we see on t.v. about kids coming up missing. Now we add in the fact that I am taking psychology and sociology classes. We panic, we love our kids, and all we can think of in an emergency is that we want them home safe in our arms, watching t.v, or staying up late sneaking a video game. BUT WHAT IF... that awful moment happens and we have to tell the police what they were wearing, what they look like etc..... Is the freckle on the left or the right, how about was the shirt yellow or did she win out and get the pink one today?!? Here is a tip I found floating on Facebook!
We never want to think it could happen to us..... but what is the worst we get if we do this and it doesn't...... A PHONE FULL of our beautiful kids!

Rory Gillmore Reading Challenge

I LOVE pinterest..... My biggest issue is I pin things and then NEVER look at them again. How many of you have the same issues? BUT I ran across this pin today and instantly I decided this is one I will start TONIGHT! I have decided that although I have read some of these before, either during school or after, I am making the decision to start again. can you imagine..... a list of 250 books!

It's a NEW me!

Hello hello hello, I am not dead or anything awful. Just like so many of us.... life has changed and the blog has fallen wayside. I have missed writing though so badly, and here I am. This blog will be taking a new approach. I think we need to learn more about saving..... in ALL ways! I may still do giveaways at some point BUT this blog will also become a daily diary of my life.
