Mead® and Five Star® ~ Back To School Made Easy + Giveaway (US) 8/11
My husband and I have been making a bigger effort to really invest out time in relationships lately. That means that I have been scheduling more visits with an elderly lady from church, attending women's events, and being diligent about getting some play dates on the calendar this Summer. I love the freedom that these three warm months bring as we don't have the hustle and bustle and routine like we do during the school year but I also know that this time will be ending soon. So today, I'm Read more [...]
People’s Choice Beef Jerky Review & Giveaway (8/8/2016)
People's Choice beef jerky sent me jerky to review. All opinions are my own.
Both sets of my grandparents were farmers. My parents grew up on a "meat and potatoes" diet. As a result, they cooked the same way as adults and I grew up with dinner always including a heavy portion of meat.

Pirate’s Booty ~ Back To School Snack’n Made Right + Giveaway (US) 8/9
Our kids are always hungry! Seriously! I have no sooner gotten a meal cleaned up and dishes done when someone is coming up asking for a snack. This is an every day occurrence, seemingly no matter how well they ate. Our 4 year old is probably our biggest culprit as he would snack 24/7 if we allowed it. Since I don't mind the kids snacking from time to time, I just aim to have some healthier options on hand. While fruit is always a great choice, it can be time consuming and difficult if Read more [...]
Nutrisystem Update – A T-Shirt Realization
I have been provided with a Nutrisystem plan in exchange for sharing my honest experience and results on my blog. All opinions are my own.
Watching Ryan lost 63 pounds over the past year on Nutrisystem has been incredible. Many of the achievements that he's passed were clear and obvious when they happened. For example, we couldn't have missed milestones like when he lost 20 pounds, or lost a shirt size because they were really obvious. However, we've had a few milestones that were much more Read more [...]
