T-minus 3 days until Halloween and I’m torn between keeping our family costume streak alive or just calling in for 2020.

We will see how creative I get... wish me luck (and hear my sorta idea in my stories).

Here’s a peek at Descendants 3 costumes we did last year, which is WAY more exciting than anything you’ll see from us this year if I manage to get it together. Heck, I still haven’t bought candy, and we ate all the sour raisins I’d bought... whoops.

On a scale of 1-10 how much are you feeling Halloween this year? 👻

#ad❤️ How long do you wait to take apart your LEGO set once you’ve finished? Hours? Days? Weeks?

I have to say, maybe it’s because we’re still new to this, but after we finish the last step in the instructions I kinda just want to admire it for a while. I’m not in a rush to take it apart. But I’m learning to let go a little--It’s easier for my kids--And rebuild once we’re done.

“Let me tell you the scene” Jayda explained as she pointed to her various monster LEGO creatures she created for a spooky Halloween theme. “The car went through the door to monster land and then got transformed into a monster car.”

Y'all know we are late adopters. It was 10 years of parenting before we worked on our first LEGO set. Now my kids are enjoying the challenge.

And here’s a fun way to spread the love: Click the link in my bio to purchase your own set and The LEGO Group will donate a set to children this holiday season!

We all want our kids to have the best chance at li

We all want our kids to have the best chance at life. Unfortunately not every child gets an equal opportunity with their education. There are HUGE disparities in schools and I’ve seen how big of a difference donations and parental involvement can make.

Fortunately, we can make an impact on schools just by downloading the free @btfe app on our phone and using it every time we grocery shop.

The Box Tops for Education app allows you to easily scan your grocery receipts with participating products to earn cash for schools!

Schools have already earned almost ONE BILLION DOLLARS through Box Tops. That’s money schools can spend on computers, teachers, lunches, playground equipment and things that can help EVERY child get the education they deserve.

We are homeschooling, but we chose to put our Box Tops cash to Tom Green Elementary School in the Austin area.

Know a school that needs the extra cash? Drop their name in the comments and let us know a little about the school!

I'm going to #GiveExtraCredit in the form of $1,000 worth of Box Tops to my followers! I’ll be going through the comments and messaging some of you bonus Box Tops codes for your school!

Nominate your school in the comments!

AD| You won Ty over at “Sharks and Stingrays”

AD| You won Ty over at “Sharks and Stingrays” with this Ocean Exploration @LEGO set. Jayda was excited to make the submarine but part way through decided she’d go in her own direction and rebuilt it based on her own creative design. We are still new to this but I must say, that it was pretty fun to follow directions and then make our own rules. To the kids this wasn’t just an exploration, they imagined characters on a special deep sea mission to clean up trash in the ocean to help the animals. And as Ty will tell you, that’s a BIG JOB.

Check out my stories to see how this all went down behind the scenes!

Which do you or your kids enjoy more: Following the original build blueprints? Or rebuilding based on imagination alone?

16 years ago this guy proposed to me. We’d known

16 years ago this guy proposed to me. We’d known each other for 4 months and got married 2 months later. We were just kids 👉🏾!! But when you know you know 😅.

I was just telling him this week how I feel like I’ve gotten to know him SO much more this year.

He asked me why, and I said part of it could be the pandemic and we’ve spent more time at home together... BUT... I also gave him an enneagram test a couple months ago and basically felt mind blown the entire time he told me his answers 🤯. It was torture to him and probably the worst hour of his life, but totally fascinating to me 😆. (He’s a 1 and I’m a 7 for anyone into that).

We are quite different but it works. I’m glad it does.

How long did you wait to get engaged? 💍

Every time Grandma Nan comes to town Jayda has one

Every time Grandma Nan comes to town Jayda has one request: We have to make her apple pie. Sadly this year she hasn’t had a chance to visit. It’s a secret family recipe that Jayda just about has down pat.

We each just got @PortalfromFacebook and were able to set it up in our kitchen and it seriously feels like she’s right there with us every step of the way. It has Smart Camera which automatically adjusts to keep her in frame as she’s running around the kitchen following directions and telling stories about her day. It’s a fun way to stay connected until we can hug each other in person again. #PortalPartner #PortalTraditions
