She {hearts} Blue Orange Games

I have never really been a huge fan of board games. I know, I know, this admission probably makes me sound like the worst mother ever. But, whatever. I didn’t like them when I was younger. And I don’t like them now. The kids cheat and fight. Dumb Dad cheats and trash talks. It’s hardContinue Reading

She {hearts} Sibu Beauty

I honestly never realized how important adult skin care was until I broke out in a mad case of adult acne about a year ago. Prior to that, even in my teens, I’d always had pretty much flawless skin.  Like sure, I’d get a pimple from time to time, but it would do it’s thingContinue Reading

And, as far as kids go, you’re going to need toContinue Reading

Back to school time is officially here. Well, for us it is anyway. I’ve spent the last few weeks buying shoes, lunchboxes, backpacks, jeans, button-up shirts, pencils, highlighters, and more glue sticks than one human child can possibly use in a single school year. And then there are these little doozies… Custom drink labels from Inchbug.Continue Reading

She {hearts} BCX Apparel.

I spent last week at a blogging conference. Actually, it is the largest blogging conference for women in the US!  With over 3,000 lady bloggers (and a few men, too) in one place, you can imagine the fashionable outfits I encountered while I was there! Since my appearance on What NOT to Wear earlier inContinue Reading
