Sending a big thank you to LUXHAIR for providing me with product, free of charge, in exchange for this review! Throughout life, bad hair days just seem to be a thing that can't be reckoned with.  I've definitely had my fair share and, while I'd love to be one of those people who can just throw on a hat, I usually look awful in those!  So I turn to more heat and extra hair spray to tame those unruly locks on bad days and hope for the best.  One thought that had crossed my mind and sparked my interest Read more [...]

Our boys love baseball.  This past summer was the first time we signed them up for the local team and at the ages of 5 (almost 6) and 9, they absolutely fell in love with the game.  While we have plenty of work ahead of us since we started later than many do, the joy the boys have from playing has been so awesome to see.  So I was thrilled to partner with Swerve Ball when they reached out as I think this will be a great addition to our practice next Summer.  Not to mention, I'm hoping it will Read more [...]

I am a Nutrisystem Nation blogger. I am provided with a Nutrisystem plan in exchange for writing regular updates. All opinions are my own. A couple weeks ago I shared how the holiday season is often thought of as a disaster for diets. I explained how we try to not look at the entire season as "a waste" and instead look at each meal time as a chance to make a good choice. That post is titled Holidays, Food and Family if you want to check that out. I talked about our Thanksgiving experience then. This Read more [...]

Today I have some great last minute stocking stuffer ideas to share with you for the girls in your life inspired by Dreamworks animated movie Trolls!  There's been lots of talk and hoopla with the movie and it even brought me back to my growing up years when Trolls were a big thing.  I specifically remember having a troll pencil topper as well as a couple Troll dolls including an adorable one with blue hair and blue striped pajamas!  Of course, this new generation of Trolls features a spunky new 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 Relax Home Life for sending me product in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own. I have a form of insomnia, so I have tried everything to get a good night's rest. I get tired during the day but when it comes to trying to sleep at night, I usually struggle to fall asleep for hours. One of the things I never really considered was getting new pillows. I just figured since I had so many pillows on my bed, that couldn't of been the issue. When Relax Home Life contacted Read more [...]
