Home Renovations

Recently Jake and I have started thinking more about starting some home renovations. One major thing we would like to do is the bathroom. We both have similar ideas for our dream bathroom. To full fill this dream it will require us putting in a new bath tub one Jake can fit in with his broad shoulders and also some new bath side panel. Our bathroom is in major need of some updating. 

We know that our dream bathroom will take a while to be all put together and perfect since we will be doing it little by little. But I would rather us take our time and do the bathroom exactly right the first time so we don't have a ton of sloppy work that needs redone. We will be doing the work in our bathroom ourselves instead of hiring someone to do the work. Lucky for me my father in law built his house so he is very handy and resourceful when it comes to doing handy work. 

What are some home renovations that you are planning on doing soon? Will you be doing these improvements yourself or hiring someone to come in and do the work?

New Tra-Dish: Chili Mac Pizza

I have come to notice that my family would not complain one bit if I fed them pizza every night. I recently tried Ragú's updated version of their Old World Style Traditional Sauce. Each jar of the updated Ragú Old World Style Traditional Sauce is made with 11 juicy tomatoes making it its richest, thickest recipe. As I mentioned my family loves pizza so I thought i'd kick it up a bit and create a new Tra-Dish for my family. My kids love regular Mac -n- Cheese pizza so I decided to make a Chili Mac Pizza and it was a big hit!

40 Bags In 40 Days 2014 CHALLENGE

With today starting Lent, I was going crazy trying to figure out what I could give up. No I am not Catholic but I still felt like I needed to give up something or some things. When I read about the 40 Bags in 40 Days Challenge I knew I found my answer. If you could see my house you would say what in the world... I unfortunately inherited my Great Grandmas love for keeping everything. With Jake now working in the mission field at a Homeless Shelter I have come to realize that we have way to much stuff that is not needed that could easily help someone else in need.

Pirate Blaster Inflatable Water park review

Does your kids love to be outdoors? I know that mine would stay out there all day and even night if i'd let them. But with the winter we have had this year in Ohio they have not been able to be outside much. So when there is a few warm days we take full advantage of them with being outside. On the last warm day we decided to pull out the Pirate Blaster Inflatable Water park for the kids to play in. Though it was still to cold to use the water function the kids really enjoyed just playing with the slide, bounce house, climbing wall and tunnel. There are also two water cannons that the kids can use come summer and we hook up the water hoses.
