It was the calmest birthday party I’ve ever attended. Â Seven three and four year-olds, gifts, cake, dressup, princesses, prizes, games and dancing….
You think that those things together are a recipe for chaos but it was completely enchanting. Â The girls were all completely enraptured and on their best behaviour. Â It was amazing. Â And also completely adorable. Â You could almost say, the party-goers were under a spell!
Enchanted Teacup was the special venue. Â The birthday girl’s Mom only had to supply a cake, some juice and guests. Â Everything else (cleanup, invites, games, prizes and entertainment; not to mention the adorable location) were included in the party package. Â We were fortunate enough to be hosted by two princesses: Snow White and Cinderella!

We have three kids. My husband and I both work full-time. We both have numerous hobbies and numerous responsibilities. I know that we are not alone; there are many parents in the same boat. Busy. Busy, Busy, Busy. I greatly dislike that word.
When life gets full the first thing to go is the precious one-on-one time that I want to spend with each of my three children. We do things as a family and I make sure that my time with them is quality time as it’s not quantity when I have to leave them to go to work. I know that they know they are loved and I know that I am doing my best to meet each of their needs, but I often feel like something is missing.
So, this past year my husband and I wrote out coupons for Mom-Dates or Dad-Dates, sealed them in monthly envelopes and wrapped them with a ribbon.
A year of dates.

Kammi and kids bring you… Flowers!
…the sure sign spring has sprung and warmer temperatures are here to stay! Flowers also offer us beauty, color and fragrant smells. Although, what is one to do when Spring has just begun and it’s still be a frosty for the buds to start blooming? Well, my daughter and I figured out a way to brighten up our kitchen table with flowers while we eagerly wait for the “real deals” to blossom…use tissue paper! This is such an easy and fun craft for all ages to enjoy and quickly adds a splash of color to any room. While we created multiple colored flowers and decorated a “vase” to set on the table you could also make these as a single flower or bunch a group together as a bouquet for a Mother’s Day present, help support Earth Day on April 22nd or hand out to friends and family on May Day (May 1st).
