St. Patrick’s Day is just around the corner, and I wanted to share with you a fun little necklace my kids and I made! It is perfect to help learn those fine motor skills, and the chocolate gold coin is the perfect prize at the end of our rainbow necklace!
Be sure to head on over to Hellobee to see the step by step tutorial on how to make a Lucky Rainbow Necklace!
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!!

I think at one time or another, we’ve all had it done to us. You’re little one has gotten a hold of your wallet, and the next thing you know, the contents are emptied out all over the floor. I know my older toddler loves to play pretend and be, “just like mommy!” with a wallet at all!
You’ll need:
Fill the wallet with just about anything you think would be fun for your kids! Hopefully it will keep them busy for a night out at a restaurant as a family when they are having a hard time sitting still.
Surprise your children with a busy wallet full of things they usually get told, “no” for touching.
Nothing like a few moments of silence while going out to eat, or getting the bathroom cleaned! This should keep them entertained for a little while they fill and re-fill the wallet, and play with its contents!

I was contacted by albion fit to do a review and giveaway of one of their products on the blog. I was excited when they asked me to do this because I was actually in the market for some new workout clothes, mainly workout bottoms, so I was excited to try out the optimum capri’s.
I’ve been able to wear these during my workouts, and even around the house a bit, and my first impression was that I was very impressed with the overall quality. You can tell just by the feel of the fabric that it is really good quality. I love the compression fabric that keeps everything where it should be while you’re working out, and the extra wide waistband is nice and comfortable!
Albion also has a great selection not only of women’s fitness wear, but also women’s swim wear that you can check out on their site! I was also excited to see that they are a local company, and will be opening a store in March at City Creek in downtown SLC!
I am excited that albion fit wants to offer one of my lucky readers a pair of these amazing exercise capris!
