Adventures With Coley & Chelsea: 18th Annual KLUC Toy Drive! #KLUCToyDrive #FeelTheTingle

Posted on December 11, 2016 by MsMingo

It has been a tradition of ours to either volunteer our time in the holiday season to help with the 98.5 KLUC Toy Drive or to donate back to the community by taking toys that we have collected throughout the year. 15350490_1217777248317087_1600156954256179581_nThis year Chelsea and I were able to get 3 boxes worth of toys to donate to the toy drive. We really love seeing all of the donations that are being dropped off and especially the “Sea of Bikes” there are thousands of bikes lined up together and at each moment the amount just keeps on growing. They were at Truck #23 I believe when we got there and were quickly filling it up. It was great to see old friends and to make some new.

Readers Circle: Art Books for Kids! #Coloring #Art #Travel #ActivityBooks

Posted on December 5, 2016 by MsMingo

We tend to get a lot of different books frequently and my favorite type of books are anything that has to with Arts and Crafts. I feel that these types of books are educational and relaxing. I feel that these are great for my daughter and I. Growing up my mom spent some time with us kids doing different art projects. Somethings that she knew how to create I never got the opportunity to learn how to make. I am happy that I got back in contact with my Aunts and Dad’s side the family 6 years ago because I learned that they also have a creative side. My Aunt Debbie, Aunt Esther, My Grandma, and Step Mom Denise all enjoy doing different creative projects even our cousin Cora. I feel that even though my mom isn’t here to help me learn that these books and the help of my family I will be able to enrich my daughter’s creative side and even my own. Continue reading →

It feels like yesterday she was just a little baby. She can be a handful at times and other times she is as sweet as can be. Yesterday I was trying on some different tops and she was saying “Mommy that is Stylish and you are beautiful”. Its so adorable when she is saying things like that. Continue reading →
