Sewing, Crafts, and Home DIY
I've been working with Leapfrog for a couple of years now. We love their products and have enjoyed reviewing them. So I was super excited when Leapfrog invited me and four other bloggers out to visit their headquarters in San Francisco! It was my first official 'business' trip (if you don't count blog conferences) and I felt so grown up. It was awesome to fly on a plane without three wild children to entertain. It was awesome to only have to … [Read more...]
I am a craft blogger. This must mean that my house is super cute and perfectly organized and clean all the time. This must mean my kids are constantly sitting down with my undivided attention to do unique and creative crafts with me. This must mean that everywhere I go I carry my SLR camera with Huge Lens snapping amazing photos of my kids to blow up huge and frame on my gallery wall. Right? Right? Nope. Well, sometimes. Rarely. … [Read more...]
I mentioned before I had some exciting news...I'm pregnant!!! Haha---just kidding. That is the first thing everyone thinks of when people say they have news, right?? Well here's the real news, accompanied by a long Story of My Life. Congrats if you read it all! About seven months ago, my husband started a new job. And about six months ago, my husband realized he absolutely loved his job and never wanted to leave. This was amazing news! … [Read more...]
Whew--I just took two weeks off blogging and it was awesome. My husband also had the two weeks off so we just got to spend all day together, amidst suffering through the World's Longest Cold, which I still have a little bit of. So happy new year! 2014 is going to be a great year. I have many goals for 2014 which I hope to actually achieve. I'm starting this year feeling a little less overwhelmed by my kids since they are a little … [Read more...]
I need to have a moment of honesty here...I'm in a funk. Who is with me?! I hope you are not, but I also hope you are because then I wouldn't feel like such a schlub. I've been struggling for awhile now, not really feeling like myself. I feel like I'm living this Reader's Digest version of my life because I don't have the energy to do anything else. I'm not sure why...whether or not it's due to the colder weather or what...but I'm just kind … [Read more...]
So I did it...I ran a half marathon. And just four months ago I couldn't even run a mile. And I did 13.1. I wish I felt a little more impressed with myself, but I guess I'm just that person who can never be satisfied. But it's what keeps me going, keeps me motivated to do better and try harder. And this is possibly the most unflattering picture of me ever...enjoy! So here's the play-by-play. I woke up at about 6 am and got … [Read more...]
This post is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group™ and Lean Cuisine, but all my opinions are my own. #pmedia #HonestlyGood #ad http://cmp.ly/3/8vNxcO. Wanna know what I had for breakfast today? Two peanut butter cookies from last night. Yep--that's how I do it. I treat myself right. Nope...wrong. My life is an ongoing battle of trying to be healthy and giving in to my powerful cravings for sugar … [Read more...]
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Arby's for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. One great childhood memory I have is going to Arby's with my best friend and her dad in the winter. We'd go to Arby's, get some yummy roast beef sandwiches, and go home and watch movies all afternoon. I hadn't been to Arby's in a long time, but I was recently curious about their new Smokehouse Brisket sandwich. I love slow smoked barbeque, so … [Read more...]
