12 Months of Pre-Planned Date Nights!

I am guessing that most of us would like to have a few more date nights. But planning them can actually stand in the way of making them happen. (Well, that and finding the right babysitter!)

Build Lego Hearts with the Kids

Do your kids love building Legos as much as mine do? Wouldn't a gift of time together building Lego hearts be awesome?

Sarah from Little Bins for Little Hands shares her ideas for building all kinds of Lego hearts on her site.
