My twins have been on spring break this past week, and the weather has been so nice! We’ve been outside a lot these past few days. I love when the weather turns warmer, and you can spend time outside in your backyard playing games (like Builders & Bulldozers), a great outdoors game for the family!…
Hi! I’m Mariel’s behind-the-scenes, right-hand “woman,” Rebecca. I enjoy helping her out with just about everything on ‘Or so she says …,’ from writing and editing to advertising and more!

This is the current state of my playroom… … times that by five, and you’ll have the whole picture. Wanna see the girl’s bedroom?? No, you don’t. I promise. It doesn’t matter how much my girls clean up, how many motivating lectures I give, how much they get in trouble, how great the reward is…the…

Today is a good day to….read a book! I was just thinking that no matter the time of year, books always come in handy. They are great for curling up inside and escaping the world when it’s snowy and cold. They are a fabulous companion on a warm sunny day as you relax and bask…
Need Easter egg stuffer ideas?? Me too! Here’s some of the faves that I found: I had never heard of these Rocket Balloons, but reviewers say they’re always a hit with the kids. They pump up to about 40″ in length, and when you let go, they shoot up in the sky and make a…

Hey there! It’s time for another FabuLESS post. 🙂 Today I want to share with you one of my favorite things from my kitchen: My Recipe Binder! Back when I was a newlywed, I didn’t really have a lot of recipes. I had a few family favorites written down in a little book my grandma…
Last month, my mom had her annual Valentine’s Day party. All the kids (my siblings and I) were asked to bring a yummy Valentines-ish treat. I brought my favorite pink Cherry Chocolate Fruit Dip.
