Part of my new morning routine is to make Greyson a lunch to take to school. At 6:30 in the morning, I am all about making sure I have the items I need – that I know where they are – and that they are easy for me to get to. So my simple solution for packing his lunch everyday – was to organize a

It has been a HUGE change for us … our schedules have been tossed into the air. He has to be at school at 7:35 every morning.

I’ve been wanting a grocery list for items that I feel we should (for the most part) on hand at any given time, for a while now. There are quite a few to be found on Pinterest – none of which were what I was hoping for, so I decided to create my own grocery list! I use this grocery list to do a quick

Starting today Greyson is participating in a summer reading challenge. He is not competing against any other children – he is just challenging himself, to see how many books he can read between now and August 28th. I have shared many times how important I believe it is to read to your kids. You can see some of the statistics here, and tips on how

Last month we took a “bucket list” vacation! We went to Disney World along with Universal studios in Florida for 10 days. It was awesome, and exhausting, but mostly awesome. We went with our two boys (5.5 years old, and 18 months), along with my parents and 5.5 year old nephew also came. I spent a lot of time planning, researching, and preparing for this trip.

Setting and sticking to a budget is hard work. It is a decision you make every single day. To have self control, work hard, and to focus on your bigger picture. With that being said, no one is perfect, and life happens. Everyone blows their budget – every once in a while. The important thing is to make sure that you get yourself back on track
