Earth Day at HEB




We took our 5 plastic bags into HEB in exchange for a reusable tote bag. Our new habit to start for Earth Day and everyday. While we were there the kind girls at HEB face painted the kids K got the Earth on her cheek and Jd had to get a mustache to go with his Mario cap.

I taught the girls in my daughters girl scout group to reuse bottle caps and turn them into bottle cap magnets for the fridge, bottle cap necklaces with beads, and bottle cap bracelets with fuzzy ribbons very foo foo.

Beach in a Jar


Recycle those spaghetti glass jars clean well, and it's ready to fill up with beach memento's. On our recent trip to the beach my daughter made a sandcastle decorated with seashells her favorite thing to do search the beach for seashells and decorate with them rather that play in the water. When it was time to go we took a picture of her creation then put some sand, her new collection of shells, and a little water to take home her very own Beach in a Jar. Which she can use to create another dream castle any day. My son filled his jar with sand and a hermit crab he found.




Thank you for the inspiration

Gone Fishin

Blue jello with fish gummies swimming inside. I made these for my kiddo's with this treat your sure to catch a swedish red fish. I had a bit of trouble with the fish staying floating but all the trouble was worth it when I saw the look on my kids face. Jd said your so funny momma while he searched with his spoon for fishes as he giggled and slurped them up.

Thank you for your inspiration
