Our (Frugal) Pirate Party

I have been so excited about sharing the fun we had at Daniel’s Pirate Party. It truly was a blast…..to me at least….and if I, an adult, can find it fabulous, I would hope birth to 5 year olds could agree.
Anyway, rather than just giving a recap, I thought I would join in for the [...]

A Preview

Here is a preview of what is in store at our house when we celebrate our first born in just a few days:
