My New Year’s resolution is to go on a lot more date nights with my husband. However, the only problem with this resolution is that during these winter months, it’s just so cold outside and I don’t want to leave the house. But I’m sticking to this resolution and finding more time to spend with my hubby-even if it is freezing outside! So skip dinner and a movie for your next date night and try one of these fun winter date ideas.
When winter hits, I can always expect a few things to happen around here. First we all say it’s too cold outside to leave the house and we will snuggle up on the couch, watch too much TV, eat too much food, my kids will play with every toy they own, the house will be a mess, and then everyone starts to go a little stir-crazy. That’s when I know cabin fever has set in. That’s also the time I know it’s time for us all to get out of the house and go on a little adventure. However, when it’s cold outside and our usual go-to adventure spots are off limits during this time of year, we have to get a little creative. If you have kids bouncing off the walls, here’s three winter adventures to relieve your family’s cabin fever.
Brrrrr, it’s cold outside and we still have a lot of weeks left to winter. So rather than just hide under warm blankets and watch a lot of TV (although that sounds pretty awesome), here are 25 things you have to add to your winter-to-do list with your kids. There are some great day trips you can take, but there are also plenty of activities you can do right at your home. Grab your warmest coats and don’t forget your hats and gloves because it’s time for some winter family fun.

So rather than play another movie or hand them one more Christmas cookie, here are boredom buster holiday apps to download now.
It seems like forever since my own baby shower. My mom hosted a beautiful shower in anticipation of my little man where I was super pregnant and wore super high shoes—bad idea. While I’ve never put those fancy shoes on again, I do look back fondly at that day and the sweet details my mom created for my friends and family that were showering me and my baby with gifts and love.
This weekend we went to a baby shower for my cousin as she prepares for the arrival of her little girl, her first baby, and while I grabbed a few items off of her baby registry, I learned something from my shower that I try to incorporate into every baby shower gift I give.
While I loved receiving all the baby gear and accessories from my baby registry, I always remembered the thoughtful gifts that other Mamas gave to me. You know, all the things I didn’t know I needed but once my little man arrived, I needed them! So if you are going to shower or sprinkle a mamma-to-be with presents, why not try share gifts that she may not know she needs, but she will love. Here’s a few DIY shower gift for future moms
