Thank you to Manscaped for providing me with products to facilitate my blog review. All opinions are 100% my own. Last Christmas, I featured Manscaped men's hygiene products and grooming tools in our Holiday Gift Guide. When I was presented with the opportunity, I really wasn't sure what my husband would think of them. In the 20+ years my husband and I had been together, I had never seen him use anything other than bar soap, cheap razors, and shampoo for grooming. I honestly had no idea if he Read more [...]

Thanks to National Geographic for sending me these wonderful books. As always, all opinions are my own. My kids (especially my son!) LOVE sharks. We've watched shark documentaries, purchased shark clothing, and now we have a whole bunch of shark books to read too! National Geographic books are some of our very favorites. They have bright illustrations and are chock full of information for my little shark-lovers to absorb. I wanted to share some of our recent favorites with you, as well as your Read more [...]

Thank you to Swonder Direct for providing me with products to facilitate my blog review. All opinions are 100% my own.

A few years ago, we discovered paddle boarding. We hadn't heard of them before our friends purchased one. While visiting them, we tried paddle boarding and had a lot of fun. It was something our daughters enjoyed, it was good exercise and it was an outdoor activity we could do as a family.

This spring I began thinking about getting our own paddle boards. After some research, Read more [...]

I received product to facilitate this Summer Boredom Busters post.  As always, all opinions are my own.
I can hardly believe it's already July!  Summer break typically means quite a bit of free time. It’s inevitable though – no matter how much we plan, the kids will get bored and say they have nothing to do.  If that's something you battle each summer, this post is for you! We've rounded up some fun ways to beat the summer boredom blues and all are sold on Amazon so you can get Read more [...]

Thank you to Walton Wood Farm for sending products for review in exchange for my honest opinion.  Summer is the perfect time to pamper yourself and make your skincare a top priority! I admittedly have not the best at taking care of my skin. I'm usually a 'less is more' kind of girl. Now that I am 32 and wrinkles are starting to appear (coupled with my cancer diagnosis), lately I have been much better about taking care of my skin. Walton Wood Farm products have been helping keep my skin soft Read more [...]

Thank you to Crown Goose USA for providing me with products to facilitate my blog review. All opinions are 100% my own.

Three years ago, I had the pleasure of reviewing Crown Goose bedding. It was love at first sight and we continue to be impressed with it!

I had discovered Crown Goose after a stay at a Hilton Hotel. While we were guests, my husband and I had some of the best sleep we have ever had. I unmade the bed to see where the bedding came from. I was hoping it was possible to get the Read more [...]

I received the NBPOWER RC Car to help facilitate this review.  As always, all opinions are my own.
