Thanks for Making Me Brighter - Teacher Appreciation Gift & Free Printable

Teacher Appreciation Week 2019 in the United States of America will begin on Monday, May 6 and end on Friday, May 10. At my daughter's school they do something different each day with a theme. I have linked some below that I have used as well. I love making printable and they have seriously made my life so much easier in the past for cute gift ideas. I made a Chick-fil-a Gift card printable last year that I shared at Christmas.

Teacher Gift Idea Free Printable


If you saw our Unicorn Easter Basket, then you know I was sent some Hallu bath bombs and I thought what a perfect opportunity to create something new to show appreciation to the many teachers in my children's lives. I created this printable so you can easily give a cute little Teacher Appreciation gift that they are sure to love. Simply click the image below to print. You can make it smaller with your printer settings and then print more to a page like I did (since we have three teachers not including PE and music teachers) or you can make a card. This could even be a cute gift for a dance or gymnastics (etc.) instructor as well.

Tips to Throw the Perfect Egg Hunt

My family hosts a family Easter egg hunt every year. Everyone in the family is invited on mine and my husband's sides. It is an awesome celebration that brings our entire family together. I started this tradition the year my son was born. I had been wanting to make sure this was an annual tradition that combined our family and my son was only a few weeks old on his first Easter so everyone decided to come to my house so we didn't have to travel far.




The fun thing about this year is that we will have even more kids. And since all of the children are in different age groups, I have some tips to share to throw the perfect egg hunt gathering.

4 Reasons to Work for Yourself


Working for yourself can be one of the most fulfilling things you ever do. If you are a parent, you already know what it is like to have a baby, to nurture it, and see it grow. As your kids get older and you have more free time, working for yourself gives you a chance to develop your business in a similar way. Being your own boss is not just satisfying—there are other benefits too.

We have a huge egg hunt ever year with my husband's and I combined families. It is so much fun. We go to church that morning and then have a wonderful cook out. Sometimes we have more traditional food, but we always have a huge egg hunt that the kids enjoy.
