How To Make A Snowman Ice Cream Recipe

Showing you on the blog how I made this fun Snowman Ice Cream recipe for the girls. It's such a fun recipe for winter and the holiday season.

I genuinely love every single part of December and the holiday season. It warms my soul and it feels like it’s going by so fast which devastates me, especially this year. I wanna make all the fun holiday recipes with my kids and make the best memories possible for our family. I partnered with Tillamook on my Instagram to make a snowman ice cream and decided to jump outside the box for my recipe.…

Holiday Photo Outfit Ideas

For those of us who stress about what to wear for holiday family photos

Now that Thanksgiving has wrapped up and we’re all ready for the happiest time of year.. tis’ the season to smile! It’s holiday family photo time.

Finding the right colors, trying to be trendy, opinionated and picky children and husbands (we gotta love ’em)… it can all make for success or disaster…

My family took advantage of Nashville House Mom’s cooking classes for kids, which can be catered to your child’s skill level. Interested? Check out the blog to read more.

​​​​​​​2020 is my ‘Karen.’ Coming in hot right after pumpkin spice season. So basic of her. 2020 simply won’t stop being ‘extra’ (extra annoying) and it’s putting a wrench in every single human’s plans. Not cool Karen.  We are now 8+ months into this COVID-19 “new normal”; and admittedly, at some points over that 8+ month duration, I was stretched (physically, mentally & emotionally) to my…

Getting Your Home Ready For The Holidays

Getting Your Home Ready For The Holidays

Now that Thanksgiving is over we can jet straight into Christmas, am I right? Who am I kidding, I’ve been celebrating since Halloween ended. With the holiday season approaching, cooler weather is approaching as well. So many places are already getting snow and arctic temperatures so it’s in our best interest to stay prepared and on top of impending potential problems. Our homes need our attention…

Best Of Black Friday & Cyber Monday Sales || Guide To Shop Safely At Home

I am donating affiliate income to our local Nashville Rescue Mission so please consider using my links when you shop this holiday season.

It’s one of the biggest sale times of the year that we typically spend counting down for, standing in long lines on Thanksgiving eve and pulling all nighters for. Luckily we don’t have to do that this year because things are looking a bit different. You can access all of your favorite sales at the tip of your fingers and in the comfort of your own home, in bed. (Which is what I did last night)…

Family Christmas PJ Ideas

If we are living in our jammies this holiday season there's no better time to force the family to match ;)

The smell of peppermint hot chocolate, spruce, and burning embers from the fire fill the air. “It’s Christmas timeeeee” – as Colbie Callat preaches. Tis’ the season for forcing our children and husbands to wear matching jammies with us, because why the heck not. With how 2020 has went, give the mom one dang thing, am I right? From the coziest onesies to two piece sets that everyone in the family…

One thing is for sure: Given we are still in the midst of a pandemic, Thanksgiving 2020 will be a memorable one. It's up to us to decide what type of memorable that will be. For me, I'm going to try the 'glass half full' concept. I'm sharing how below.

Why Traveling Is Good For The Soul

Why Traveling Is Good For The Soul

This post is sponsored by Airbnb but all opinions are my own.

I ask only that you take a moment with me. A brief moment to pause, breathe, close your eyes, and reflect. Remember. Remind yourself of our world before the past year, not knowing that we were all going to be entering the most challenging year of our lives. Amidst the unfamiliar days where we hardly can hardly speak to what we had for…

Nail Trends Fall 2020

Nail Trends Fall 2020 || Sharing some gorgeous fall nail trends of 2020 featuring my friends Ashley from Purpose and Passion Blog and Jen from @the_jen_of_all_trades

I don’t know about ya’ll, but I am obsessed with having solid manicures at all times during the fall and holiday season. We can’t quite control how pasty white our skin is getting, or how the cooler weather is giving us dry hair, or how we’re craving serious carbs lately. I’m talking chili, spaghetti, Mexican, fried game day food, cornbread, mashed potatoes, etc. I mean, are humans meant to…

My Experience With TruSculpt

My Experience With TruSculpt

Just like most of us I feel like, I ate my feelings during the first part of quarantine and put on about 10 lbs. Trust me it doesn’t come off quite as quickly in your mid thirties as it did when I was younger. In addition to gaining a few lbs my body just isn’t as tight as it once was and that’s a hard pill to swallow as you age. You truly don’t know how it feels until you go through it. I had…

Warning Signs of Depression and Anxiety

It's been tough year for all of us. For those of us who already struggle with mental health we may recognize the motions but I know it's new to some of you. We're all in this together so I'm sharing some warning signs and as always I'm here if you need me.

Not to sound like a cheesy commercial or a parrot on repeat, but with all that is going on in the world today, I think its is good to be self-aware and knowledgable about mental health. It’s no secret that I struggle daily with anxiety and depression has started to creep in due to all the current stress in the world packed on top of that anxiety. 

As I talk to loved ones…
