I know I don’t look it [cough, cough], but being the mom of a tween girl [12 years old] can make shopping for swimsuits make me want to pull my hair out. It’s that age where there’s a gap between little girl suits and looking like a 20 year old on spring break. It’s hard…
I’m not sure about you, but I don’t have all the time [or energy] in the world to get ready and make myself look presentable most days. In all honesty, I’d say 3 out of 7 days I may actually wear makeup. I guess that’s the perk of working from home. Though my family would…
Swimsuit season is sneaking up on us whether we like it or not. After a year of being home and eating and drinking more that I definitely should have, I wasn’t looking forward to trying anything on that isn’t leggings and a oversized sweatshirt. But, low and behold… I took one for the team to…
Well, we got a puppy… I’m sure if you follow me over on Instagram you’ve had a glimpse of Gigi. This year on the top of Jayden’s Christmas list was a puppy. He honestly hadn’t talked about it a ton, but once it showed up on his list, it was the only constant thing he…
Spring is in the air and it feels so good. Time to swap out my darker colors in the closet for some fresh colors that remind us of our favorite flowers we love to see when the weather breaks. However, with the fluctuating temperatures we still need pieces that will keep us warm on those…
There’s nothing I love more in the winter than comfort food. That usually includes soups and stews. Unfortunately, besides Jayden my family will never all eat the same soup. But, I decided to try this spin on a chicken noodle soup and they all loved it! The fact that Andrew ate two bowls the first…
I guess when you’re surrounded by snow and ice you might as well do some wishful thinking for spring weather. Target is always a hot spot to find spring dresses for many occasions. My favorite thing about hitting up Target for spring dresses is the prices are always great and there are so many options…
Black leggings are a true closet staple… but there are thousands and thousands of brands and styles out there. And if you do a simple search on Amazon there are over 10,000 options to choose from! So, I’m here to help you out and let you know out of a few I decided to try…
Valentine’s Day isn’t really a holiday we go crazy with around here. Definitely, when I was younger I loved Andrew sending me flowers and extra special treats. However, as I’ve gotten older I ask him not to waste money on flowers priced double that one day in February that usually don’t last for a week.…
This winter I decided to redo my home office to make it work more efficiently for both Madison and I since I’m working full time on the blog from home and we’ve made the decision to homeschool Madison the remainder of this year. I’ve had my office space for years but it was due for…
Is anyone else kind of blown away that it’s almost the end of January already? I’m kind of looking forward to the arctic chill going away. I mean, at least if it’s going to be freezing, then give us snow to enjoy for a while longer. From bras and panties, bedding, and sunless tanner that’s…
One of our favorite things to do in the summer is to have fires out on the patio and roast marshmallows for s’mores. Sometimes it is a fight on who wants their marshmallow just a slight golden brown, or burnt to a crisp. I’m actually a burnt to a crisp kind of girl. Come wintertime,…
