All things Boy: Activities, recipes, DIY, Science projects and Crafts for Boys.
Last week I shared my son’s M&M’s basketball cake that we made for his 7th birthday. Since his birthday fell during the week we did his sports party with friends this weekend and needed a little treat to give to them. Of course we thought of sports cupcakes. I will be sharing all of the fun we had at the party later this week. [Read more...]
This week I shared my son’s basketball birthday cake and promised to share how to make an easy DIY cake stand.
I have a nice, glass cake stand that I normally use for our cakes but I had a specific look in mind. After looking online for a plain metal cake stand and seeing that everything cost more than I wanted to pay, I decided to make one. This was the easiest and most inexpensive project I have done in awhile and I got exactly the look I was wanting.
Yesterday we celebrated the 7th birthday of one of the coolest kids I know. When he grows up he wants to be a professional basketball player so naturally he would want a basketball cake for his birthday. [Read more...]
I have a nightly battle that goes on at my house. I have two picky eaters and one who will eat pretty much anything. I love trying new recipes but I hate hearing terms like, “gross” , “what is that?”, “I’m not eating that.”. (Is it just me???? Please say it is not just me!) So when I came across a recipe for Cheeseburger soup, I knew I had to give it a try. [Read more...]
If you’ve read this blog for any amount of time you know that we love to play with our food! I have a couple of picky eaters so getting them to eat can be tricky. I always have to laugh at the fact that if I make the food look like something fun, then they normally gobble it right down. Doesn’t even matter what it is.
As I mentioned earlier this week about my shopping trip and the random act of kindness that was done for me, we were completely out of food after being gone for Spring Break and Easter so I headed off to Sam’s Club to fill the shelves. You can read about my shopping experience in my Google + album.
I’m a mom of 4 boys, which also makes me a
nurse, referee, taxi driver,teacher, party planner, story teller, barber,dietician, baker, atm, maid, personal shopper, jungle gym, coach, puppeteer, motivator and negotiator. On the rare occasion that I get a moment to myself I like to sing, play the piano and guitar and just relax. I’m sharing my life with you as well as fun activities, crafts, recipes and ideas designed just for boys, in hopes that together we can, not only survive, but find joy in raising boys. So leave a comment and get involved. I’d love to hear from you!
