Water Testing Kit Review & Giveaway (11/4)

Thank you to Test Assured for sending a water testing kit for review in exchange for my honest opinion. We've lived in our home for about two and a half years. We have a well and haven't really had any issues with the water so we've never done our own water testing. I was excited to get the opportunity to partner with Test Assured to use their Water Testing Kit to test our drinking water. Our daughter gets special 'nursery water' from the store, which was a recommendation from her doctor. Read more [...]

Nutrisystem Update – Commercial Level

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. Ryan has lost over 60 pounds since he first started Nutrisystem. His plan is still the same calorie-wise, so his weight loss is slower now than it was early on. It now takes less calories to maintain his current size, so that's to be expected. It's also common for weight loss to slow if you're exercising to build muscle (such as weight lifting) instead of just Read more [...]

Brentwood Home Deluxe Pet Bed Review & Giveaway (11/6/2016)

I was sent a Brentwood Runyon Deluxe pet bed. All opinions are my own. About three years ago I adopted a pair of bonded pugs. They were 8 and 9 then, so they were already considered seniors. Now they are 11 and 12 and I'm thankful that they are both still in pretty good health. They both seem to struggle with occasional aches and pains. My female pug, Beans can't jump up into the car, or onto the couch like she used to so we pick her up. My male pug, Frank has days where he limps a little after Read more [...]

By Emily Benzing

October 21st, 2016
Thank you to MunchPak for providing me this box in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own. My boyfriend and I absolutely love trying new foods and snacks. If it's different, we try it! Sometimes it's hard to find new foods because we don't exactly have the ability to transport ourselves to different countries. That's why I was so excited when MunchPak contacted me to see if I wanted to do a review. This subscription box really let my boyfriend and I try new things without even Read more [...]

Nested Bean Zen Swaddle ~ Safe Sleeping Tips For National SIDS Awareness Month + Giveaway (US) 11/5

No Stuff & No Fluff:  Avoid putting any blankets, stuffed animals, toys, or side bumpers in the crib Read more [...]

Thank you to Mansfield Plumbing for providing me with product in exchange for this honest blog review. All opinions are 100% my own. We purchased our home a little over a year ago.

Thank you to Case Logic for providing me with product in exchange for this honest blog review. All opinions are 100% my own. I LOVE watching movies at home.

I prefer to keep my DVDs in a wallet, as opposed to the cases they come in. It saves me space and helps me keep the movies organized Read more [...]

5 Self-Care Tips To Help Recover From illness & Family Flora Probiotic Giveaway (11/4)

Thank you Flora Renew for sponsoring this blog post. All opinions are my own. Cold and flu season is coming! On one hand, I'm glad that illness doesn't usually strike during the summer. It would be tough to get the flu when it's hot outside. Still, it always feels unfortunate to get sick during the fall or winter, too. It's already sort of sluggish time of year. I just don't seem to have the energy in the winter that I have in the summer. The combination of bitter cold weather and less daylight Read more [...]
