Wagons & A Fairy Princess.

Hi My Loves!!


Hope you all had a lovely Easter weekend. We had a very nice one even though I was super sick and the kids were snuffly :( It's always the way. I swear every time there is a holiday or birthday, we end up getting sick. Horrid luck.

Anyway, we got a new wagon from Radio Flyer and so we wanted to try it out as the kids were super excited about it. They love being outside and going for walks. I'm so glad that there are so many beautiful places to walk in Tahoe. I just love it! Everyday I wake up with a smile on my face knowing that I can look out my window and see the beautiful forest ;) 

Pants ~ Fabletics // Denim Jacket ~ TJ Maxx // Flats ~ Tieks

How cute are the kids sunglasses? I got them at Target.


Lily had so much fun walking Moo and Phoenix loved pulling the wagon. I love that the wagon has the canopy to protect them from the sun as well seat belts. The wheels are nice and big and rubber so they are not noisy, so that while you are pulling it you can actually carry on a conversation with your hubby or hear your kids haha! It also has good clearance. It's got two cup holders on the outside but they weren't quite big enough for our Google Water bottle. But they held our keys :) There are also cup holders on the inside of the wagon for your little ones drinks. The seats and bottom are plastic for easy clean up for dirt or spills. And it fold up like a stroller for convenience of storing it or if you want to travel with it and take it in your car. I do wish it had a little more storage though. There really isn't anywhere that you can keep any extras other than at the bottom where the kids feet go, which can be a little cramped. That's my only complaint though. Jay said it was easy to build too.



From March 9th through April 10th Radio Flyer will be conducting their Get Out And Play Daily Giveaway. Participants can sign up each day on RadioFlyer.com for a chance to win the Radio Flyer toy of the day. One winner will be selected each day.



 In addition to the giveaway, Radio Flyer is also offering 10% off site-wide with the promo code SPRING15



These pictures of from Easter. We had just had an egg hunt and they were sitting down to see what was in the eggs ;) I think this is Lily's, "I'm trying to eat my chocolate Mom" face :)





They had so much fun yesterday. I was super sick and tried to make it as fun as possible for them and I'm pretty sure they had a very fun day, so that's good ;) 


Thank you guys so much for reading ;)

Here's the vlogs of us trying the wagon out. Enjoy!

Cutest Picture Ever & Mini Clothing Haul.....


Hi My Loves!!!

Long time no blog.... or at least it seems like it? I'm not sure actually how long it's been but I think it's been around a week! Either way, I have a new one today so yay!!

Yesterday we had some nice weather for once in our lives :) We decided to go for a walk to the park with the kids seeing as it was so pretty out. Phoenix discovered his love for dandelions (fairy flowers as we like to call them).... Lily hasn't quite decided whether she likes them or not. I did catch some really cute pictures of them though. I figured I would share the cuteness.

This might possibly be my favorite picture of Phoenix that I have ever taken. All of these were taken with my Nokia Lumia 1020 incase you are wondering (and no they do not know I am writing this blog post or anything like that).... I just love how great everything turns out when I take pictures with it ;) 


Phoenix was having so much fun blowing the "Tinkerbells"




Lily was staring at something haha :) 



She just wasn't too sure about how fluffy they were haha! 




How cute is Lily Bug?



I also got a few new items of clothing from Music City Pretty Boutique  (follow her on Instagram too) that I was super excited to try on, so I figured I would do a late night selfie clothing haul with a messy bedroom (we're painting our bedroom)... and a huge bun! Oh and a dusty mirror :) These pictures are so un "guru" like and super unprofessional but hey that's just me. If you follow me, you should know that by now. How do you like Moo and Bella photobombing me haha?

This shirt is super cute, it's white on the front with rhinestones and then black with a really fun back. Super flowy material and nice and loose on the tummy. I have a Medium incase you need a size reference.


This is the back (excuse the clear hanger straps)... this was a random spur of the moment, unplanned haul :) I don't know what is going on with the shadow on my back but I can assure you I don't have a weird half moon white patch.


This top is perfect for summer. With one of my Victorias Secret bralettes under it will be so cute for summer. Plus it's nice and loose incase you don't have a perfect flat tummy. Paired up with some denim or white shorts... perfect!


The next top is so comfy! It's so soft. I can't wait to wear this with some skinny jeans and some cute flats or sandals.


The colors just scream summer to me.


Last item is this leopard and mint scarf. I love scarves and this has two of my favorite scarves I already have mixed into one ;) YAY! 


To see more of the cute stuff Music City Pretty Boutique has, head on over to her store and use the code Sam10 for 10% off. Huge thanks to Tina for these items! I love them :) CLICK HERE FOR HER STORE!

BS and I also had a little girly time and painted our nails. Mine were so chipped, so it was time! BS did the Covergirl Outlast Mint Mojito with Julie G's Nail Polish in Light It Up over the top. I had Julie G's Sound The Alarm with Light It Up over. Love her polishes. They are so amazing.



Last but not least my favorite Instagram picture I've seen yet. I saw this on my sweet friend JulieGBeautys instagram and couldn't help but laugh because this is what my hair looks most days (the one with the bird on top) and Jay and I totally watched the end of Pocahontas when the kids were napping yesterday and I was thinking the whole time how amazing her hair and lips were... then I saw this. Had to regram it ;)

Hope you all had a great weekend! Ours started amazing and ended a little differently but you will just have to watch our vlog tomorrow to find out why :)
Here was the fabulous part of our weekend....

Our Christmas Pictures 2013!

Hi My Loves!!!

I hope you all had a great Christmas! We had such a great day and the kids had so much fun. It was so nice to be with family all day and we even got to skype with my brother and Tam Tam so that was perfect :) If you haven't watched our Christmas vlog.... you should! It's full of cuteness, laughs and lots of fun!

WATCH IT HERE:

Here's a few of my favorite pictures of our Christmas :)

We did a really great Gingerbread house this year. I'm rather proud of it. Last years was a complete mess as it came completely broken, so it was nice to have one that actually turned out to be a house.


Our elf "Christmas" was a big hit with the kids. They had so much fun looking for him every morning, seeing what he got up to.


Baking cookies for Santa is definitely going to be out new Christmas Eve tradition. They turned out so good too! For the recipe CLICK HERE :)


After Santa had come I snapped some pictures so I could remember what it looked like before the chaos of opening began :) Here's what Phoenix and Lily woke up to. 


He was pretty excited when he walked in to see all this. Lily woke up first so she saw it from our bedroom angle and she was just super excited about the bear haha!


When I was young, I remember every year I asked for the Barbie riding Jeep. Every year I would wake up hoping to see it and it never came. This year Santa fulfilled my childhood dream by getting one for Phoenix :) And he LOVES it! It's definitely his favorite present. It's funny the things you remember as a kid. I don't remember one present that I asked for and received..... but I do remember the one thing I never got haha! Kids eh??


We found these super cute bean bags chairs at Target for the kids. I just couldn't resist! So cute!!



This Minnie Mouse kitchen for Lily is a big hit! She absolutely loves Minnie and Santa nailed it with this. 


Every girl needs a Little Mermaid vanity. She's got to get beautified in the mornings you know!


Our friend and Dad & Shelli have one of these huge bears at their houses. Every time we go over there, Lily gets so excited about the big huge bear so we decided it was time she should have one too. These are so soft and you just want to snuggle him. 



BS and BF got Phoenix a piano which he absolutely loves. He's going to be the next X Factor winner I think :)


After opening all the presents at our house, we headed over to Grandma & Grandpa's for a delightful Roast Beef dinner that Shelli prepared (which was amazing). 

We snapped some really cute pictures with the kids.

Phoenix has been doing the "Miley" with his tongue. Not quite sure where he got that haha! 


How cute is his Christmas sweater? My cousin from England got it for him and I love it. England has some really cute kids clothes!





My Aunt sent the cardigan and leggings for Lily. Aren't the just the most festive little beauties you've ever seen??



My favorite picture of all is this one. Our beautiful little family. I am just so blessed to be able to spend my life with them. Every day I am so happy to wake up to their smiling faces :) Jay's flannel is from Target and my top is from Ross.



This is a super cute one of BS & BF too. Lily's face cracks me up!


Young love ;)


You can't have a Christmas picture without Grandma & Grandpa and a horse!! Haha!!





That was our Christmas :) Hope you had a great one and the new year is even better!

Thanks for reading and watching :)
