Celebrating Your Incredible Parents: Gift Ideas to Show Your Gratitude on Mother's and Father's Day

Mother’s Day and Father’s Day are special occasions that provide an opportunity to reflect on the incredible impact that our parents have had on our lives.

Today’s blog post discusses some healthy Mother’s Day and Father’s Day gift ideas from adidas. So whether you’re looking for a thoughtful gift to show your appreciation or want to spend some quality time with your parents, this post has got you covered.

As Mother’s Day and Father’s Day approach, May 14th 2023, for Mother’s Day and June 18th 2023, for Father’s Day, it’s the perfect time to reflect on the incredible impact that our parents have had on our lives.

They’ve been our biggest champions from the beginning, providing unwavering support, love, and guidance through life’s challenges. Our parents are the constants we can always rely on in a world that often feels uncertain and chaotic.

This special occasion allows us to express our gratitude and appreciation for all our parents have done for us. It’s a time to reflect on the lessons they’ve taught us, the sacrifices they’ve made, and the unwavering love they’ve given us.

If you asked me what I would want on Mother’s Day, I would answer with more time in the day to be able to spend with my family. While finding unique gifts and having thoughtful meanings behind them are great, the most valuable gift is the memories we get to create with our parents. The precious moments to smile, love, and laugh make our lives fulfilling! However, living a healthy lifestyle and being fit will give you even more time to spend with your parents!

A Healthy Gift Idea for Mother’s and Father’s Day

 

If you’re looking for a healthy and meaningful way to show your appreciation, consider giving a gift that will help you stay connected and active with your parents. adidas’ running shoes for men and women are an excellent choice that can provide an opportunity to bond over a shared love of fitness.

 

Going for a walk or run together can be a fantastic way to catch up on each other’s lives, enjoy the fresh air, and stay active. Plus, exercise releases endorphins, which can help boost mood and reduce stress levels – a win-win for everyone involved!

Remember this post when I shared my inspiration behind my in-home cafe corner? Now that we put our inspiration to work and it’s 99% done, we want to share the progress with you.

Read on to find out!

We couldn’t decide on a coffee machine, so we leave this corner as our snack bar for now

Remember this post when I shared my inspiration behind my in-home cafe corner? Now that we put our inspiration to work and it’s 99% done, we want to share the progress with you. We are still waiting for the bistro marble table and one more cane chair before we share the finished look.

While waiting to complete the corner, my husband and I have some time to decide what coffee machine we want, but it’s so hard for us to make our decision as there are many options out there. We want to get one that is functional and produces great tasting coffee so that we can visit Starbucks less often. Also, something pretty that would well-suite with our cafe corner.

If you have your favorite, let us know in the comments below.

Right now, here is how our snack bar corner looks.

We moved the drawers we had from the old home office and use it to store snacks, coffee cups, teacups, and saucers.

On top of the drawers, we have the water dispenser we got from Target years back. We are planning to put our coffee maker machine right here and move the water dispenser somewhere else. We will see how everything will work out once we have our coffee machine. We have the cactus light up in this corner as well, and it was originally in my old home office.

We hung two floating shelves we got from Target and have water pitchers, glasses, and a few cute mugs (female form mug and clay mugs) up there.

Our family has been using this part of the home a lot lately as we moved our dining room table outside. We are now treating this area as our snacks and casual dining room for the four of us.

We are planning a lot more projects around the house and can’t wait to share them with you in upcoming posts.

Family Spring Lookbook| Picacho Peak State Park, AZ

Family Spring Lookbook| Picacho Peak State Park, AZ

Fashion, Lifestyle, Parenting, Tucson, AZ Guide

Wildflowers are so beautiful that’s why we couldn’t miss the opportunity to visit Picacho Peak State Park this year. As Spring is here with perfect weather, we drove up one weekend to take our kids to see and learn about nature.

Keep on reading to see all the fun.

Spring is calling for wildflowers here in Arizona and I love that we live in the middle of nature and have a chance to enjoy all the beauty that nature offers every single day.

Around this time of year, we always see colorful wildflowers on the sidewalk as we drive to get our groceries.

Somedays we see a coyote crossing the road, and somedays we have a family of Javelina stop by our front door. These make dessert living life a lot more interesting and fun for our small family. 

Because we are surrounded by beautiful nature, our family loves to spend time outdoors. Alida and Aveena love playing with bugs and dirt. They love to observe things around them. As a parent, we love watching our kids play and explore too. Not only my husband and I can bond with our kids and nature all at once but it is also a great way to teach our daughters about things around them as well.

Now, I started to homeschool my oldest daughter, and our lastest lessons were about plants, bees, and flowers. My husband and I thought it would be a great idea and a more hand-on experience if we took our kids to see the wildflower field in person.   

We went on a road trip to Picacho Peak State Park located in Arizona. It’s about an hour away from our home. The girls were so excited to see the wildflowers blooming. We captured some of the special moments and shared them with you in the below video.

There are 3 types of wildflowers I am showing in this blog post, Mexican Gold Poppy, Coulter’s Lupine, and Brittlebush.

Mexican Gold Poppy

The Mexican Gold Poppy is an annual that blooms from mid-February through April and has a beautiful orange, four petal, cup-like flowers. The poppies only remain open during full sunlight.

Coulter’s Lupine

The Coulter’s Lupine is a member of a pea family and can identified by its palmated leaves. These divided leaves resemble fingers growing from the palm of the hand and move during the day to absorb maximum sunlight. The lupine’s multiple flowers rage in color from pale blue to violet.

Brittlebush

Brittlebush is a member of the sunflower family. The leaves are greenish-grey and grow to form rounded shrub. When in bloom, the leafless flower stems with their bright yellow flowers resemble a bouquet growing above the leaf area. Small mammals and birds, especially quail, dine on the seeds. produced by the brittlebush.

The rules here are not to pick flowers or damage plants but we forgot to tell our daughters so the oldest one got one of each flowers as she wanted to give to her grandma. And the little one picked two flowers because she couldn’t help it being a one year old. We told them after the incident and they promise not to do that again. 🙂 

Here are our outfit details: 

Big Sister: Tie-belt Jumpsuit | Sneakers 

Little Sister: Patterned Jersey Dress |  Sneakers

My Outfit: Chiffon Dress | Sneakers 

My Husband’s Outfit: Striped Oxford Shirt (sold out): (similar here) |  Jeans (sold out): similar here) | Sneakers

10 Reasons Why You Should Have A Family Photo Wall Gallery

10 Reasons Why You Should Have A Family Photo Wall Gallery

Home Decor, Lifestyle

I love having a family photo wall in our home. It’s not only beautiful to look at, but I love the priceless memories I get to cherish every time I look at it.

In today’s post, I will be talking about 10 reasons why you should have a family photo wall in your home.

 

 

 

Home decor is one of the hobbies my husband and I love to do. We enjoy dressing up our home to make it feel more warm and unique.

We change up our space often to suit all our family’s needs.

This wall is one of the favorites that we put up as it shows all the trips we have been on and the memories we cherished since we have this home.

We use Minted.com to frame all our special moments. As you can see in the photos, every picture on this wall is specially framed and customized to look exactly how we want it.

What I like most is that you can adjust almost everything about the picture; the frame size and color, size of the photograph, unique artist design, and more.

Now every time we go on a trip or any special moment we have with our family, we always want to frame it with Minted.

“Happiness, not in another place but this place…not for another hour, but this hour.”

– Walt Whitman

10 Reasons Why You Should Have A Family Photo Wall

1

 

You can use it as an art piece in your home 

Having a family photo wall in your home is an excellent way of creating beautiful art. Instead of buying stock photos and generic art pieces, you can pick out from a department store, using unique and priceless pictures of your family is much more beautiful and inspiring.

2

You can relive those family moments and enjoy them

 

A family photo wall lets you enjoy the moments you have taken and get to relive them again. Family portraits of holiday trips and summer vacation are great ways to bring back those fun memories and experiences.

3

It’s good for your kids to see themself growing up

 

Having photos of your kids up on a family photo wall lets them see how they have grown over the years. Your kids can see how they have grown and can appreciate those moments even more, knowing how fast time goes by.

Research done by David Krauss, a licensed psychologist from Cleveland, Ohio, said that having family photos on the walls of your home helps to boost your child’s self-esteem. He goes on to say, “It is so helpful for children to see themselves as a valued and important part of that family unit. A photographer’s job is to create and make the image look like a safe holding space for kids where they are safe and protected. Kids get it on a really simple level”.

It’s a great way to do a recap of a year or family trip

 

A family photo wall gallery of a specific year or trip is even more enjoyable. If you showcase a specific year, you can walk through each of the photos. You can feel as if you experienced the year as it went by. So every day, when you look at your family photo wall, you have a more precise memory of the heart that you loved so much.

5

Makes your home have more life to it

Having photos of your family bring more life to your home. When you show more life in your pictures, that feeling transpires into your living space. Happy, active, and fun pictures of your family make your home feel better.

6

 

 

 

You become more appreciative and grateful

A family photo wall makes you more grateful for the family you have. Having a family is lucky, and not everyone has the chance to frame pictures of their family and display them. When you see pictures of your family hanging on your wall, you start to feel a sense of appreciation and gratefulness.

7

The photos of your family are priceless

There are lots of art decor you can have displayed in your home, but family pictures are priceless. There is no price for a perfect shot of you and your loved ones. These are memories that no one else can recreate or experience.

 

8

 

 

 

You can pass down the picture to your kids

Photos of your family are great to pass down to your kids over time. You can look at it as a type of family momentum that your kids will cherish for years to come.

 

9

It’s a great talking piece

With a beautifully displayed family photo wall, it can become a great talking piece. When company comes over, you can talk about the moments you shared with your family and tell stories that are sure to interest anyone.

 

The photos will make you want to experience more family trips

 

The best thing about having a family photo wall is the desire to take more family trips. When you have some great memories on the wall, it’s natural to want to go on more trips and truly experience and enjoy life.
