Thank you to Plackers for providing me with products to facilitate my blog review. All opinions are 100% my own. We all know how important it is to floss our teeth daily but, how many of us actually do it? According to a study I found online, about 30% of Americans floss daily. The rest of us are either not flossing at all or just occasionally flossing. Why is flossing so important? The American Dental Association recommends flossing between your teeth daily to help prevent cavities and gum Read more [...]

Thank you to Emani for providing me with products to facilitate my blog review. All opinions are 100% my own. I love makeup. I love being able to play with colors and try different combinations to come up with new looks. One of my favorite makeup brands is Emani. Emani offers customers a line of vegan and gluten-free cosmetics and makeup brushes. When formulating new products, Emani is careful about the ingredients they select. They want to ensure their products are safe for those with allergies, Read more [...]

I received product from Stonz Wear to facilitate this post.  All opinions are my own. We live in Minnesota.  And most years, winter seems to creep up on us.  Perhaps it's because I wait to dig out all our snow gear?  For some reason I've always decided to drag my feet in preparation, (as if that will delay it's impending arrival?).  That is, until the day they come storming in!  Then, it's a big rush because the kids want to get outside and play!  And who can blame them!?  Seeing that first Read more [...]

This post was sponsored by The Michigan Office of Highway Safety Planning as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central and all opinions expressed in my post are my own. The next time you find yourself at an elementary school at the end of the school day, I encourage you to glance around at the younger children and the vehicles they are going home in. Although Michigan law requires that children under age 8 use a car seat or booster seat, there are a lot of children in that age range Read more [...]

I received product from NCircle Entertainment in exchange for this post.  All opinions are my own. Even though we limit screen time in our home, we love to enjoy a good movie from time to time.  Usually once a month during the winter, we'll even do a family movie night.  But during a typical week, we do allow the kids to watch a few educational shows.  But because regular television channels offer so many low-quality shows and commercials that we don't want our kids to watch, we've actually Read more [...]

I was sent a Fleximount overhead garage storage rack for review. There is a paid link in this article. All opinions are my own. I was really excited to finally have a garage when we moved here about three years ago. A "normal" place for Ryan to store his tools, the ability to park inside and avoid scraping our windshield on winter mornings. It was also nice to have a place for storing things like Christmas ornaments and off-season clothing. We moved plastic totes of items to the garage as soon Read more [...]

Sending a big thank you to INKnBURN for providing me with some of their clothing to facilitate this post.  All opinions are my own. I will be the first to admit that I may not be the most athletic person around.  But I am willing to give things a try.  I've done a variety of exercise videos, regimens, zumba classes, yoga, and more over the years.  It really doesn't matter what activity or exercise I choose to engage in though.  What matters is that I can be comfortable, and dare I say stylish, Read more [...]

I received samples of type:A Deodorant to facilitate this post.  All opinions are my own. About 12 years ago, I began a journey.  I decided to start looking for more natural products and foods for my family.  So while the journey has gone in streaks.  (There were times where I purged the entire house of all food and only had organic and natural options.  We are now more balanced road and consider most foods okay at least occasionally.)  But one thing that I've stuck with being natural is our Read more [...]

Thank you to PBS Distribution for sending product for review in exchange for my honest opinion. I've said it before, but we love PBS in our home. It's the only channel our daughter is allowed to watch. She has fallen in love with many of the characters and we love that she is learning while watching. Earlier this summer I featured PBS Distribution’s Newest Releases ~ Children’s Shows on DVD. Now, I am excited to partner with PBS again to share with you four of their new fall releases: Arthur Read more [...]
