Hello!

Hi, I'm Beth! I'm a stay-at-home mom of three, wife, and grilled cheese enthusiast. On any given day I can be found ignoring the overflowing laundry baskets, cleaning dried food off my yoga pants, and crafting with my kids. I created this blog to share some of our happy chaos with all of you.

This heirloom quilt was made from linoleum block prints found in a friend’s mother’s attic. She stamped them on fabric and enlisted my help to make this treasured quilt for her mom.

Final day of “Nature Camp by Mom.” The idea was to do a hike, read a nature story, and do a nature themed craft each day. Per usual, our plans were much more structured than our reality. 🤷🏻‍♀️ It was a nice change of pace, though...
I wanted to really dig into the history of this property while the kids just wanted to run around like maniacs. They won. #teampacyk
Before and after. The more dirt, the more fun. #teampacyk
Ben has an accident on our hike today and I had (stupidly) removed the emergency bag from the car. Thankfully I just watched this episode of Parks & Rec last night so I was inspired to make bandana undies. 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 #benjamindanielpacyk #whow
Still blows my mind that of all the dads in the world, our kids got lucky with the very best one. We tried to spoil him today, but per usual he spoiled us instead. ❤️ #teampacyk
Benjamin had a wonderful fourth birthday party at home yesterday. He felt very celebrated and loved.... and full of candy! #benjamindanielpacyk
Happy fourth birthday to my forever baby! Stay curious, creative, and wild sweet boy! (I thought about cropping this photo so he wouldn’t be holding himself, but it just didn’t seem authentically Ben.) #benjamindanielpacyk #happybirthday
I’ve been inside only two stores since March 13th. My kids have very occasionally met up with friends at a field or parking lot to run and play from 6’ apart, but hadn’t hugged a buddy or invited a friend inside. A couple weeks ago
