FROZEN-Inspired Princess Anna Dress Up Apron

Inspired by Disney's FROZEN, a Princess Anna dress up apron tutorial

I am new to this whole parenting thing, so tell me: is there a way to tune out when your child sings Frozen’s, “Do You Wanna Build A Snowman” 7,137 times a day?

I like house plants and they require little in the way of actual work, so I thought maybe these terrariums would be fun to put together, too. I had several extra mason jars and two little girls at home that love a craft, so I made an impulsive decision and bought some supplies right then and there. 
Recently I’ve been loving polka dots.
 I still remember years back when i was a little girl and my mom had a beautiful black dress with white polka dots and now that i’m a grown woman it seems they are on trend again.
 Like Solomon wrote on Ecclesiastes, “there is nothing new under the sun”.

Does God send suffering?

This is a big question for us to tackle. The best place to go is to the Word of God.  I know from the Word that the enemy, (the devil, Satan, ole’ Lucifer, the deceiver, father of lies, etc.), this accuser, is only allowed to put things in our pathway as God gives him liberty

Simple DIY Fabric Flip Flops

Simple DIY Fabric Flip Flops
As promised, here is the latest in our DIY fabric flip flops series. The girls and I have been having so much fun making our own flip flops this summer and we’ll have a couple more to share with you soon. I’ll give you a hint about the next pair… they involve duct tape – so be on the lookout for that post very soon. The flip flops we are sharing here are probably the most simple of all that we have made this summer. They require no sewing or glue, and can be made with scrap fabric and a $1 pair of plastic flip flops. We found ours at Michaels craft store.

Snickerdoodle Sunday Fab Links Round up for May!

from 2 Crochet Hooks

Snickerdoodle Sunday May Favs
Each week at our link party Snickerdoodle Sunday we have a lot of totally awesome posts linked up. Our new format is that we pick just one best post and then feature that blogger and their blog the next week. There are so many other awesome posts, I decided to do a monthly round up of the top two most clicked links from each week too!
It seems as though every company is releasing a gel polish formula, and I’ve been loving this trend! Revlon is releasing their new ColorStay Gel Envy Longwear Nail Enamel formula that claims up to 11 days of chip-free wear, when worn with their Diamond Top Coat*. I’ve been trying out the shades Wild Card* & Cardshark*, which are two gorgeous shades that are perfect for Spring & Summer!

Chocolate Cherry Dump Cake from LouLou Girls
WP_20140525_16_48_07_SmartShoot

When we go camping, we always make the raspberry dump cake and I have never tried a chocolate dump cake before. Of course, I had to give it a try. Dump cakes are so easy that if you haven’t tried one before, you might be skeptical that it could be so delicious, but it is without a doubt tasty!
