How I’m Making Simple Swaps to Rock My Resolutions + Sweepstakes!

I’ve partnered with Green Giant, Optimum Nutrition, vitafusion and L’il Critters as part of an Influencer Activation and all opinions expressed in my post are my own.

I’ve noticed a growing trend over the last few years of people designating a word to focus on when the new year rolls in. For 2020, the word I’ve chosen to focus on is wellness. My goal is to regain strength and establish wellness physically, spiritually and emotionally. Each year I create a vision board with my dreams and goals on it and hang it on the wall where I can see and review it daily. I’m a very visual person, and getting to physically check off items on my list gives me a monumental feeling of achievement that I’ve grown to crave. One of the biggest ways I’m channeling wellness into my day to day life is by making simple swaps that help keep me on track.

Thanksgiving break has come to an end, and now we’re back into the swing of our daily routine and bracing ourselves for the hustle and bustle of the busy holiday season! Once our Thanksgiving meal was good and digested, I climbed up into our attic and brought down all of our holiday decorations to celebrate the Christmas season. One of the very first places in our home to receive a bit of Christmas cheer was my beloved coffee bar. With the holiday season comes some of my absolute favorite coffee flavors, and I was thrilled to give my coffee bar a face lift with my new favorite kitchen gadget yet!

A Case of the Weekend Sniffles Solved – Amwell Urgent Care Review + Discount!

by Leave a Comment

Amwell Urgent Care is a perfect solution for busy parents on the go. See how our weekend was saved using Amwell!

During this season of our lives, it’s really hard for us to be able to slow down. My hands are full with two little girls that are bouncing with energy, and their blooming curiosity has us all running in different directions. They’re definitely keeping me on my toes, that’s for sure! When my oldest daughter started her first year of school earlier this season, I knew she was going to be experiencing new things, but she would unfortunately not be immune to the germs passed back and forth in the classroom all day long.

How to Create a Winter White Harvest Tablescape

As we’re winding up the final months of 2019, I can’t help but think about how we’re in the home stretch of wrapping up an entire decade. So much personal growth has happened in the last 10 years, including marrying my soulmate, starting a family and building our home. As I’m making preparations to celebrate the upcoming holidays, I’ve been feeling pretty sentimental about all of the good memories that I’ll be sharing with my family when they gather around my table for Thanksgiving this year.
