Helping Moms Build Happy Homes
This week was National Teacher Appreciation Week. At our school, the class moms are responsible for decorating their child's teacher's classroom door. You might remember that I was in charge of doing Happy Baby's classroom door last year (see HERE) and Happy Buddy's door the year before that (see … [Read more...] about The Greatest Teacher Appreciation Door EVER
Leave it to me to bring you a post for Teacher Appreciation Day on the morning of National Teacher Appreciation Day. You can call me the QUEEN of last-minute. It's cool.

Just wanted to document what the Happy Buddy has been up to these days. When the lease on my old car was up and we went to trade it in for something else, our car salesman at the dealership was handing out tickets for upcoming Miami Heat games to whoever bought a car that day. We were only … [Read more...] about The NBA’s Youngest Recruit
I was at the store the other day trying to figure out something to get to make for dinner and I thought of this yumminess. So, I went to Happy Home Fairy to remind myself of the ingredient list and after searching and searching, I was so surprised to find that I have never posted this recipe! This … [Read more...] about Recipe – Mediterranean Beef and Pasta
A few weeks ago I signed myself and my boys up for our church's annual Talent Show. We decided to sing our favorite bedtime tune - "The Pajama Song" by Teatime With Tayla. You can view it on YouTube HERE. Be forewarned - it's not the best song to actually sing right before bed as it might get … [Read more...] about That Time I Was In a Talent Show With My Kids
I mentioned HERE that the books you read during pregnancy really don't adequately prepare you for what's coming. So I thought I would jot down a few examples of things I wasn't prepared for about motherhood (from this past week alone - ha!). I wasn't prepared for the giant bottle of unknown … [Read more...] about Things I Wasn’t Prepared for About Motherhood

Would you believe that Happy Baby turned 3 years old on Friday?! When we started talking about what kind of party he wanted, he immediately said he wanted a Peppa Pig party. To be gender correct, he actually insisted on it being a George Pig party (Peppa's little brother). About 2 days before the … [Read more...] about Piggy Cupcakes and Happy Baby’s 3rd Birthday
Yesterday was the annual family Easter egg hunt at my husband's Grandmommy's house. Happy Buddy found the 'Golden Egg' and got to take home this special treat as his prize... I am not going to lie - I have already contemplated 3,000 different ways I can try to sneak that thing to Goodwill. Before … [Read more...] about Happy Resurrection Day!
I apologize that this printable is coming in so close to Easter. I promise I had good intentions to get it done earlier, but those good intentions got flushed when everyone in the house got sick this past weekend and instead of quiet, creative pockets of time, we were all draped over our beds under … [Read more...] about Easter Conversation Cards – FREE Printable!
I keep turning around and being surprised by how fast the weeks are flying. Happy Buddy said to me on Sunday that next week was Palm Sunday and I was like, "That's ridiculous, no it's not." And sure enough - it is. The Easter season is here! I have a BIG printable for you that I am hopefully … [Read more...] about A Delicious Easter Feast
One day last year when I picked up the Happy Buddy from school he immediately burst into tears. He informed me that he had not gotten a sticker that day because he had been caught eating mulch on the playground with another boy. Another day when he climbed into the car after church he confessed … [Read more...] about The Grace Response
We live reeeeally far from our work/church/school, so we spend a LOT of time on the road. I was recently trying to take inventory of the ways I am working to teach my children about kindness and the more I thought about it, the more I realized that most of the kind things we are actively doing each … [Read more...] about Simple RAOKs You Can Do While Driving
It's official! As of Saturday at around 2:50 pm, I got a new sister! More on that to come (I hope), but today I wanted to share with you a silly little game I put together for the shower we held for the bride a few weeks ago. I searched on Pinterest for ideas and this one was so much fun, I had … [Read more...] about Funny Bridal Shower Game
