Pom Pom Candy Corn
This easy and colorful Pom Pom Candy Corn is the perfect kids' craft for fall! Just don't try to eat it! ;) This weekend I pulled out my fall decorations (even though it's supposed to be 102° tomorrow.) I didn't always decorate for fall-Christmas is more my thing. But I've … [Read more...]

It's almost time for fall! Or so I keep telling myself as we just sweated through a sweltering 95 degree weekend. But I have faith and hope that soon we will get to experience the cool evenings, smell wood smoke in the air (that isn't from a massive wild fire) and start pulling … [Read more...]

Craftstick Scarecrow Craft
Today we took our little co-op group for a field trip to In-n-Out. Best. Field Trip. Ever! Well, it was our first one, but I still think it was awesome! However, I digress. Because we had the field trip, we didn't do school work today. So I … [Read more...]
Vol. 2, Day 6: Rustic Rope Frame DIY
I found this super cool poster at a garage sale a few weeks ago, and I knew it would be perfect for my dad for Father's Day. He grew up in the Roy Rogers "era" and I knew he would appreciate the rules for being in the Riders club. But it was just a plain paper poster, so I knew … [Read more...]
