For Kensington’s 4th birthday, we hosted a French Bistro Party. All of the food had a French theme (French Onion Paninis, Quiche, French Vanilla Cupcakes, etc.). I found this dip on Pinterest but I needed to French-ify it. So…I…
Our Christmas
So, here are some pictures of our Christmas weekend. We stayed Friday thru Sunday at my parents’ house and had THE BEST TIME! We did lots of fun Christmasy things, ate a ton of yummy food and laughed a lot. …
Jammy Cocoa Christmas
Every year, we do “Jammy Cocoa Christmas” with my parents. This means you put your pjs on, climb in the car, go to Starbucks and get goodies and then look at lights. We’ve been doing it since we were married…
Christmas Pinwheel Cookies
I kept seeing festive little pinwheel cookies on Pinterest but the recipes seemed so complicated. I’m not into that this time of year. I need festive. I need quick. I need simple. I need delicious. I think I achieved it…
