Farmhouse Style On A Budget
My two favorite things are FARMHOUSE STYLE…and A GOOD DEAL!! So when I can get super cute farmhouse decor AND not break the bank, I am one happy girl!! Here are a few of my current farmhouse crushes… These pillows are so versatile…perfect for layering. And they come as a 2 pack , which makes them only around $12 each!!! In my opinion, you can never have too many trays. Any time I want to add a cute vignette to a tabletop, nightstand, kitchen counter, ANYWHERE, I always start with a pretty tray. This great farmhouse tray is under $14 and would look great in ANY room of the house.…

Top 9 things to do on Oahu:
I have been to Oahu multiple times, and each time I have added a few new TOP spots to my list. There is just SOOOO much to do and see that I could probably make a list of 50 attractions I love about the island, but If I had to choose my very favorites…these are the ones!! To start off with a disclaimer…many of my favorites revolve around food. But when I am on vacation, I want to ONLY eat the things that I love, AND many of those favorites are right there on the tiny island of Oahu. And if you want to get technical with a second disclaimer…most…

You don’t HAVE to have EVERYTHING to have it ALL!!!
Do you ever look at social media and think…IF I ONLY HAD WHAT THEY HAVE…or…IF I COULD ONLY AFFORD THAT…or…UGHH WHY DO I EVEN TRY?? We live in a fantastic time in history where we can see it ALL, do it ALL, and HAVE it ALL…but guess what??? We do not NEED it all!!! Let me ruin the ending for you. If you buy that “BLANK” that you saw your insta crush share this morning, it will NOT make you happier. If you eat the EXACT snack topped with protein powder and peanutbutter that your insta nutritionist chowed on yesterday, it will not give you abs. And if you have…

Emeals Review
SUMMER VACATION…aka the time when you realize that you will have your kids with you 24 hours a day for 3 months and that you do not have enough food or patience or energy to keep them all entertained…oh the joys…haha. Lucky for me a little ad popped up on my instagram that has changed the way I prep for dinner-time at my house. I started using Emeals with Walmart grocery pick-up and thought I would share my thoughts with you. First off, what is Emeals??? It is a meal planning site that provides a variety of ideas and recipes each week to help you plan out your dinners. THEN…

Traveling with kids: vacation packing tips and tricks
SUMMER!!! I have a major love/hate relationship with Summer vacation. I LOVE it because my kids are home all day…and I HATE it because…my kids are home ALL DAY!! It is fun and busy and crazy and messy and unscheduled and JUST TOO DARN SHORT!! But my favorite part… the travel. My goal for the Summer is to create as many memories as I possibly can in those 10 weeks, so that when the dark days of January roll back around, we can have NEXT SUMMER to look forward to. Since we have spent all sorts of days on the road already this Summer between camping and short over night…
