August 2017 Favorite Finds – Back To School Edition
Hello August! I have love/hate feeling when it comes to the month of August. Love: because I start counting down the days for back to school (don't judge me, you know you do this secretly too no matter how much you love those little stinkers), because it's still summer, and because I get to still sleep-in.

10+ Road Trip Must Haves For Families
Hi everyone, we're at the end of July and my family just got back from a mini vacation to Wisconsin Dells. It was so much fun and truly great time we needed away from home a bit.

I want to point out that this can be a stressful time when traveling with family, kids especially. You can't really ... Read More...
