When summer first began, I created a routine for us to follow each day and it has been a game changer! If your kids are anything like ours, the immediate second their eyes open in the morning, they are asking (or in our household, just doing it themselves) for their iPads, the television, video-games, etc. […]

I am actually in disbelief that we are already in quarter three for the year. How the hell did that happen and where did the time go? This year is reallyyyyyy showing me a lot. I’ve eaten several slices of humble pie thinking I can manage and do all the things. So quarter two was […]

For the past few years now, we have hosted the Fourth of July for our families and some close friends. Phil and I are both big on getting people together, we love being around our people. Last year, on the ride to the hospital, in very active labor mind you, we laughed knowing that was […]

I hear how they just aren’t sure where to begin, how to start, what to do. They’re hyper-focused on what other people will […]

We all know it, we’ve all felt it, we’ve all succumbed to our own self-doubt because of it: imposter syndrome. With the constant accessibility we have to others and the world around us, it feels almost impossible to avoid imposter syndrome. And no matter how confident or “put together” you may think someone else is, […]

Back when I was still teaching, I remember being so envious of people that traveled for work. Even if it was quick weekends away. The idea of traveling and working sounded so cool- but I knew, being a teacher, that would never be a reality for me. Fast forward to starting my business, I started […]

We had the most amazing time traveling to Marco Island in Florida all of last week. Pool, beach, drinks, and not much else. Spent loads of quality time together and cashed in on tons of Vitamin D. We went last August and not a single child would touch the ocean, minus Jax. Flash forward to […]
