After being overwhelmed with Birthday love yesterday, it’s a total must I get going on all of my merci + gracias notes…asap!

When I was brainstorming various ideas of how to celebrate the big 2-6, I decided it would be totally fun + different to host my friends in Central Park for a sunset picnic. Hola! But as the date grew closer and the weather.com reports appeared to not be in my favor, I decided last minute

If your kids {imagine if you don’t have any yet!} were ever struck with the challenge to raise $50 for charity, what would you suggest for them to do? A lanyard sale at school? A spontaneous Tooth Fairy donation {hehe}? Well, when the Russell family was faced with this task they decided a good old
