Easter Basket Ideas

Posted by Holly Nelson on Tuesday, March 30, 2010, In : Tip of the Week 
  I don't have a recipe to share today. I have been very sick and not really "with it". And I should be writing the Easter page, but I just haven't felt well. 
  But today I have to go shopping for a few more Easter basket items. When I had my first baby and started thinking about filling a basket, I didn't want to put the "junk" in there that I've seen other baskets filled with. There are so many holidays and so many ways we can just spoil our kids with "things". I wanted the basket to be abo...

Spring Break at Silver Dollar City

Posted by Holly Nelson on Thursday, March 25, 2010, In : Family Fun 
While visiting friends and family in Missouri last week, we spent last Thursday at Silver Dollar City. Our kids love that place! So much that we got season passes for the older ones and we don't even live in that state anymore. But, they can go with family, and we will find a way to get them there to make it worth it. I tried to take more pictures of the attractions. But, it was really hard keeping up with 5 boys and being 9 months pregnant, hoping I don't go into labor! And I did see another...

When I went on my mini vacation to Missouri last week, I met a childhood friend for lunch. She made our soon-to-be baby Jack a baby blanket. It was more adorable and cuddly than I thought! I love it, and I can't wait to wrap him in it. We are doing a cowboy/western theme in the nursery. Doesn't Jack Tyler  sound like a cowboy's name?  Please visit her Etsy shop and get one today! You  will not be disappointed! These make great gifts, also.
