Wallace Falls State Park
This was an awesome trip. The falls were beautiful and the hike was a bit tiring but enjoyed nonetheless. I got to spend quality time with those I hold most dear.

Inspire
So I tend to let myself go days and sometimes weeks at a time without a post. Not to make excuses for those of you that follow or check in often but, recently our family has been kept very busy. I wanted to jump on and give a quick shout out to all of my family and friends that have made themselves available to help where and when ever they can help. Here is a lil reminder that no matter what life brings their is always a positive even if you have to look a lil harder to find it!
Much Love and until next time...
Life is what you make... so make it AMAZING!

Toddler Fun
No mess painting. I had to try this out with my one year old. We started with a few colors and she liked it. It’s a great sensory craft and I think if I add more colors she would like it a bit more. However, it held her attention for about 15 min. So I would say it a win. Great idea. Check back for more fun and creative ideas for your little ines

Blueberries
I have started adding a netting to my blueberries as they begin to ripen. This helps to save my blueberries from the birds and deer. I have harvested more so far this season than in past.
My youngest was almost eating them as fast as I was picking them. She even tried helping.
I have had my blueberries for over 4 years and recently I have added coffee and egg shells to soil. This help in a couple ways. It adds acidity to the soil which is great for the fruit and it also acts as a great deterrent for slugs. Slugs will stay away from any plant that you sprinkle with a coffee and egg shell mix it cuts up their bellies and they will avoid it.
For more information on gardening hacks follow me and see what I have learned from the ideas and tips I have found and explored to see the truth in how well they really work.
Long time no post
Life is full of unexpected moments. While it seems that something always trying to keep you from doing what you enjoy it’s only a matter of time until you can get back to it. That is if you truly enjoyed it!
Excuse me for my recent absence and for those of you that know me you understand that family comes first and the last week my most important and cherished, my children, needed me. However, I am here and I brought with me a few updates and some new ideas we have made the time to explore. For those of you that follow thank you.

Raspberry From seeds -germinating
Well this is another new and first time project For me. I have taken fresh organic raspberries and used my kitchen aid to make a seedless jam.
I have taken and cleaned the seeds.
Laid the seeds out to dry per a blog I read.
Once they are dry I will separate them from the remainder of the flesh and then plant them in small individual biodegradable containers. Hopefully they will sprout!
Here goes... I will follow up with the more pictures and information as I make progress.
Until then, stay well.

Lavender Lemonade
There is nothing like fresh lemons and a few sprigs of Lavender in you lemonade.
When you have been inspired it’s easy to enjoy even your smallest creations. This one was simple and satisfying. Calming and refreshing. Finding uses for my fresh lavender has been easier than I though once I harvested the handfuls from my garden. I find joy and satisfaction in so many small things. Small things like this. Life is full of small moments, find what brings you joy and cherish it!
10 Benefits of Raspberries

Herb and Scrap Garden
So I was able to get my Cilantro, Chives, and Basil growing. All three of these are from seed. I also have Ginger and Green Leaf Lettuce growing as well as Green Onion from cuttings of what I purchased in store. 
You can see the Basil is an addition to what I have left of my previous Basil. My Cilantro is doing very well and I have an onion rooting to the right. The top three images my Green onion are about through I have regrown multiple times. The middle image is my Chives sprouting and to the right my Ginger. I will post a Garden update in a week or two to show progression of my gardening.
