When we decided we wanted to do foster care we knew we needed to create a space for that precious child! We knew he needed his own space so we decided to move Leighton out of her room and in with Ainsley.

Slowing down.

Why Star Cinema Grill is a great place for a party!
A huge thank you to Star Cinema Grill for hosting us! Oakland turned 10 in December and his birthday falls on the day after Christmas! We always plan to have his party a few weeks after because who is available to go to a party the day after Christmas??

I hosted a Frozen 2 party at Star Cinema Grill when the movie came out so I thought this would be a perfect place for his ...
