Welcome to my November 2017 Favorite Finds. I'm still in awe as to how fast we got here. Wasn't Thanksgiving just a year ago? Lol, or does it feel longer to you? I'm still recovering from last night, a mom's job is hard; me confiscating some of my kid's Halloween candy for their own good. I tell you it's a thankless job! I can tell you this right now, either myself or they will regret it later :/ Let's move on shall we, November is here and so is the freezing cold winter in Minnesota. I ... Read More...

July 2017 Favorite Finds – Birthday Wishlist
Happy July everyone! Last weekend this girl celebrated a birthday. If you know me at all you know I'm all about the birthdays. I go all out for my loved ones when it's their special day. I feel like that one day every year is when someone should be told how special they are and even though it's not about the gifts and well wishes, birthdays can mean a lot of things to different people. For me, I tend to reflect on my life, the good, bad and sometimes ugly, (yes that one year I had a bad ... Read More...

10 Things You Didn’t Know About Me
So I wanted to write 10 Things You Didn't Know About Me for a while now. The post idea has been lingering in my digital brain for about 6 months now because I keep a very low personal profile of myself and family online. It's one of the things I wanted to change with this new blog. I want to show my perfectly imperfect, personal, life. Aside from reading about me in the 'Meet Kami' section of the blog, I really wanted to share some personal tidbits and a few other things that keep me grounded ... Read More...

I meant to write this post for a while now, 5 things every GIRL needs in her life, let's just say motherhood got in the way the last few days; how ironic. This past week we celebrated Women's Day, a day I was so proud to be a woman, to show my kids (not just my daughters) that a woman can be so much more than what they see every day. Honestly, I'm not sure what they see every day. In my head, I think they see a frumpy housewife who can't manage her time because I'm always complaining that we're ... Read More...

This past Saturday, I attended the 2016 MN Blogger Conference at Concordia University, St. Paul. I've been blogging for over 5 years now and this was my first event as a blogger. It was so much more than I expected; my fellow bloggers would agree, there are two reasons we go to these events. To learn, grow and get inspired by our content. To network with other bloggers. First off, the keynote speaker Jennifer Kane killed it with her opening: How To Become A Fierce & Fearless ... Read More...
