❤️ The Story Behind Sidelines & Shenanigans

Behind every small business is a story, and behind Sidelines & Shenanigans is a mom, a family, a whole lot of love, and a little bit of craziness that makes life special.

I’m a mom to four amazing children, and my family is truly the heart behind everything I do.

My oldest son, Tom, is a Marine veteran, a husband to Ericka, and a proud dad of two. Watching him grow into the man, husband, father, and veteran he is today makes me incredibly proud. ❤️🇺🇸 Our family has grown over the years, and being a mom now means getting to experience the joy of being a grandmother, too.

My oldest daughter, Mackenzie, is 24. She has faced her own challenges, including two autoimmune disorders and gastroparesis. Watching my children navigate their individual journeys has made me appreciate just how strong, resilient, and incredible they all are.

My two younger children, Jared and Faith, came into our lives in 2018. After years of loving, caring for, and growing with them, we officially adopted them in 2021. They may not have been born into our family, but they have always been my children in every way that matters. ❤️

My son Jared is autistic, and he has taught me so much about patience, perseverance, celebrating the little victories, and seeing the world in a beautiful way. He is also a football player for the Souderton Braves, which has brought our family into the wonderful world of football, team spirit, game days, early mornings, and, of course, plenty of sideline shenanigans! 🏈

My daughter Faith has Down syndrome, and she brings so much joy, love, and determination into our lives. She reminds me every day that some of life's greatest moments can be found in the simplest things. 💕

✨ Where Sidelines & Shenanigans Comes In

For the past few years, I haven't been able to work outside of the home. Being there for my children has needed to come first, and while that hasn't always been an easy road, it has given me the opportunity to discover something that brings me so much happiness—crafting and creating. 🎨✨

That's where Sidelines & Shenanigans was born.

I have always loved making things, being creative, and turning an idea into something someone can hold in their hands and enjoy. Creating custom shirts, gifts, team gear, tumblers, accessories, and personalized items gives me a way to do something I truly love while still being there for my family when they need me.

And honestly, I wouldn't have it any other way. ❤️

Sidelines & Shenanigans isn't just a business to me. It's a little piece of my heart. It's a way for me to create, connect with other families, celebrate our kids, and build something of my own while being present for the people who mean the most to me.

Whether I'm creating a shirt for a football mom, a cheerleader, a coach, a proud dad, a team, a birthday, a holiday, or just someone who deserves something special, I put a little bit of myself into every creation.

When you support Sidelines & Shenanigans, you're not just supporting a small business. You're supporting a mom who is doing her best to build something beautiful for her family while doing what she loves. ❤️

From football fields and family milestones to everyday celebrations, this business is a reflection of the people I love most and the life we've built together.

Thank you for following our journey, sharing my creations, placing orders, recommending my business, and cheering me on from the sidelines.

From my family to yours—thank you for being part of our Shenanigans. ✨

❤️ With love,
The Mom Behind Sidelines & Shenanigans
