Top 8 Best Toys for Christmas 2017
Every year we ask ourselves this question. What do I get the kids for Christmas? What kind of present will they like, want, need? It doesn't need to be your own kid.

How to Keep Your Family’s Skin Hydrated and Healthy in the Winter
I'm excited to work with Vaseline to spread the word about the Vaseline Healing project and winter skincare. All opinions and experiences are my own. Winter is probably my least favorite season. I don't know if it's the shorter days or the colder weather, but I usually cannot wait until it is over. To add insult to injury, my skin and hair seem to go crazy in the Winter weather.

As much as I try to stay hydrated, I just can't seem to drink enough water to combat it Keep Reading

A box of hot chocolate and an order for dinner at the local grocery store was all it Keep Reading

Between working, the house and parenting, I find it easy to just grab something from the prepared foods at the grocery store and let the kids go to town on it. Do you feel me on this? We've all been there before. Last week I looked at one of those same dishes and it made my stomach turn a little. I think I've burned myself out on them. As I strolled past the meat section a large piece of chuck roast caught my attention. Well, Keep Reading

We took a poll in the house recently, and the kids have spoken. More game nights are happening! We always have a great time on game nights, and we're going to start doing them on Thursdays or Fridays because those are evenings when the kids don't have activities or any homework. I'm so excited to get this tradition started. Good Luck, Kids They're going to learn real fast that I really get into it. Maybe I shouldn't be so competitive... but I can't help it!

What about that memory stands out the most? If you're like me it involves a moment, an action, not a present.
