    Toddler Girl Dance, Cheer, and Athletic Wear

    December 20, 2024 /

    Roan is the busiest person in our household right now! She has dance, cheer, gymnastics, and the occasional twirling lesson. I linked my favorite athleticwear/leo sites below, plus some direct Amazon links for specific items, including dance shoes and tights. Please also enjoy these pictures of her over the past year and a half. I love seeing how much she has grown! cheekplum.com sweethoneyclothing.com

    I’m thankful for a magical trip to Disney last week with our family. It was perfect weather, and the kids had a blast. Lake was tall enough to ride some new rides like Thunder Mountain and Slinky Dog Dash and Roan met several princesses.

    Lake is in his last year of preschool and Roan just started her very first. We’re so thankful for the amazing teachers at their school who help them feel loved and ready to learn. Both first-day outfits are from Classic Whimsy.

I had fun incorporating details from the movie; Wisps (cotton candy), The Crafty Carver (craft station), targets, Angus the horse, and bright tartan plaids. Happy Birthday to our clan’s princess: Roan. See bottom of post for linked party items.

    Mitten Memories: Fall Break Dump 2023

    October 26, 2023 /

    We had the best little getaway in Michigan last week. Lake had the honor of being the ring bearer in Keegan and Sabrina’s wedding. He did SUCH a good job and was sooooooo excited to wear his tux. Roan and Lake both danced the night away at the reception! We got to Petoskey a little early, so we ventured out to a light house and Lake was very interested in learning about buoys. We spent one night in Mackinaw City and another in Charlevoix, before heading over to Mackinac Island for a quick visit on our last day. Roan was obsessed with the “Neigh Neighs” on the island and both…

    Momma and Me Matching Style

    October 24, 2023 /

    Roan and I are in our matching era and I hope it never ends! I loved matching Roany in our Ivy City Co. dresses last week. We had the pleasure of attending a wedding (where Lake served as ring bearer!) and these pretty dresses were perfect. PLUS these beauties are now on Final Sale so they are majorly discounted! Women’s ran TTS, but we sized down on Roan’s; it ran large. See links to both dresses below.

    Roan’s Prime Time Diner

    September 5, 2023 /

    Every trip to Disney World, we eat at the 50’s Prime Time Cafe in Hollywood Studios. The restaurant is a replica of a classic 50’s home, complete with Formica countertops, milkshakes, and your cousin or uncle serving as your waiter or waitress. Your server will instruct you to keep your elbows off the table and you’ll enjoy comfort food while watching 50’s clips on the black and white tv’s. I thought it would be fun to pay homage to our traditional food stop at the most magical place on earth (and to us) but with our own spin on it, so Roan’s second birthday party theme was “Roan’s Prime Time…
