Thank you to Handful for providing me with product in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own. Going to the gym is something I'm still new at. Kyle and I just recently moved to North Carolina and have been going to the gym almost everyday. I've learned how to have good form, use all of the equipment, and how to do different workouts that help build muscle. It's a nice change - I love releasing all of my worries and anxieties by exercising. One thing that I wish I had more of is Read more [...]

Last week, we had some 60 degree weather that really made me realize Spring is truly around the corner.  Sure, it IS Minnesota so it's not too crazy to expect another snowstorm yet but we all caught the Spring fever bug that made the kids begging to wear shorts and sandals.  So as I started taking stock of what the kids had and what's been outgrown or worn out, I realized that several of us needed sandals.  So today, I'm excited to share Gold Pigeon Shoes with you! Sending a big thank you to Read more [...]

Tell me I'm not alone in the deep dislike of clothing shopping for myself.  Don't misunderstand, as I love getting new clothes as much as the next person....if only it was that easy.  The struggle is real when nothing seems to fit right.  Every single brand tends to run on their own sizing scale and I typically get defeated before finding what I'm looking for.  My biggest hurdle seems to run in the jean department.  My beloved brand that I've been buying for about 10 years folded over a year Read more [...]

Thank you to Socks and I for sending me these boxes in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own. Socks are one of my favorite items of clothing not just because they keep my feet warm, but because they're a secret way of expressing myself. I love wild, colorful, and fun socks! I think anyone of all ages can enjoy them. No matter the color or design, you can always find joy in a nice pair of socks. It's the simple things in life that bring happiness. Socks and I sparks that happiness Read more [...]

Being a mom, my closet is almost always in need of a little upgrading.  My every day wardrobe ends up covered in fingerprints and stains, seemingly within the hour of putting any particular piece on.  But I know that this time in my life is short so it rarely bothers me.  Even so, I do try to keep a few nice outfits on hand for holidays, fun girls nights, and the ever-allusive date night that never seems to happen much around here. Sending a big thank you to NeeSee's Dresses for sending me this Read more [...]

Sending a big thank you to Little Me for sending us these adorable pajamas! It seems that our kiddos are almost always in need of pajamas.  When packing away our 2 year old's holiday and Christmas clothes to make some room in the closet, I noticed that her pajama drawer was seriously lacking.  Since a few pairs were holiday themed, they will get moved out and leave behind only two other pairs.  That may not go far if she ends up getting sick or as we pack up to leave for our mini-vacation at Read more [...]

The Christmas rush is finally over for us and we have completed four out of the five holiday gatherings so far.  Still have the one last straggler on my husbands side but they schedule for mid-January every year.  While we don't much care to have it so late, it does at least break up the busyness too.  So even though my husband and I didn't exchange gifts this year, with Winter in full swing here in Minnesota, there was just one (okay, two) things I was really wishing for..... new pajamas and Read more [...]

Thank you to UglyChristmasSweater.com for sending me an Ugly Christmas Sweater for review. Ugly Christmas Sweaters seem to be becoming more and more popular each year. There are Ugly Christmas Sweater parties and Special Ugly Christmas Sweater days at schools and workplaces. Did you know there is even a national Ugly Christmas Sweater day? The third Friday in December is celebrated as National Ugly Christmas Sweater Day. This year it was December 16th. Even if you missed Ugly Christmas Sweater Read more [...]

Thank you to RaesWear for providing me with product in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own. I am a huge wearer of athletic clothes. I dress nice on occasion, but most of the time you can find me wearing leggings, yoga pants, hoodies, and tennis shoes. I find that there's happiness in comfort, so that's how I dress. My clothes also keep me flexible and ready for anything. When I go out, I hardly ever bring a purse or anything with me besides my phone and debit card. I'm just Read more [...]

Thank you to Enreverie for providing me with product in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own. My boyfriend's mom is a huge gun advocate. She carries one on her at all times, and she also likes to just go out and shoot at the range sometimes. I love that she isn't afraid of anything and she's honestly the strongest, toughest woman I know! I also love that she can be girly too - she loves rings, jewelry, and makeup. For Christmas, I wasn't quite sure what to get her but when Enreverie Read more [...]
