Who doesn't LOVE a little home photo shoot for Valentine's Day? These two little cupids will always be my favorite (and most difficult at times) to photograph. I got these cute shirts as a surprise for Daddy. I think I picked out the right ones - you be the judge!

North Pole Breakfast 2017
Testing...testing...Is this thing still on?? Never fear! I'm still here just haven't posted on the blog since Eloise's birthday. LAWD. We are just livin that Kindergarten life over here in the Kalins house. Anyways...Guess who is back?!?
LYLA ZIGZA THE ELF!!!
Before I recap our North Pole breakfast, check out these pics from Donuts with Santa. Eloise had a blast since this event is at her school. She was so nervous to talk to Santa but did a great job. He even told her that she was on the Nice List. It was hilarious how she turned and looked at us when he told her that as if she was saying, "See guys! I'm in the clear."
And now, on to our North Pole Breakfast where we welcome back our Elf on the Shelf, Lyla ZigZa. The kids both got some new Christmas pajamas, coloring books, and chapstick. They are both obsessed with chapstick so while it is a little on the lame side, they loved it!
You can follow all of Lyla's antics on my Instagram (@sewsnappymandy) or on Facebook.

Summer Fun 2017
I always feel like once our July Birthdays have come & gone that summer is truly halfway over. So far this summer, we have a ton of fun! After returning from our awesome Disney vacation at the end of May, the fun has not stopped. We have been swimming, boating, tubing and staying up past our bedtimes. Here are some highlights!
Just in case hanging with Princesses in Disney World wasn't enough for Eloise, we went to a Princess Party with a bunch of her girlfriends from school.
We celebrated Father's Day and took some much needed family photos with the Clarks
Summer time means lots of pool time at Grandma Carrot's and Papa Kevin's house.
Mommy & Auntie Lo kicked off the summer concert season with our favorite guys -
New Kids on the Block!!
With Eloise starting Kindergarten at St. Michael's in August, we are spending alot of time talking about it. Eloise is most excited for the hair accessory options that come with her uniform. But seriously, she is really excited to be starting at a new school and making tons of new friends. We often talk about how cool it will be to bring her lunch every day and wear matching dresses with all her classmates.
Don't be fooled by these photos of Preston. That boy has no sense of chill as he is full of energy and excitement about jumping in the pool. He likes to stand on the edge and say, "3 - 2 - 1" and then jump. When he wants to jump in, he tells you, "Bubbas...3, 2, 1?" Let's be real though - he jumps on 2.
Eloise's swim lessons have paid off this year as she is loving to practice her skills every chance she gets.
4th of July was TONS of this year because we went to Papa Jim's lake house for a big party.
The biggest event of the Summer has been celebrating Brad's 40th Birthday. We enjoyed a fun getaway in the city with tons of good food & drinks.
Brunch/Lunch at Fork.
Whiskey Tasting at Koval Distillery
Dinner at El Che Bar at the Chef's Table.
After dinner drinks at Cindy's Rooftop.
Sunday Brunch at Summer House Santa Monica
