It’s The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year!
It is the most wonderful time of the year, right? As a Mom, one of the most obvious indicators of this glorious season is the lights? The tree? The ambiance? No, not even close. It is the …….germs. The sniffles, the sneezes, the fevers, the sour stomach. It spreads like wild fire and man oh man, no thank you. Before essential oils it was something that we just sat and waited for. Watching, waiting. Enter Young Living. Enter THIEVES essential oil blend. This intoxicating oil blend is a combination of clove, cinnamon, lemon, eucalyptus radiata, and rosemary. But what makes is so freaking fabulous? The story of the thieves…

Tips For Turning a Sunroom Into a Playroom!!
Finding an area in our homes to be a playroom can be a tall order, but also can feel necessary. You don’t want your kid’s toys, games and craft supplies to crowd the rest of your home, and having a dedicated space to keep all of this can reduce clutter and make cleanup easier. With that being said, most people don’t have a lot of extra square footage to dedicate to a playroom, but if you have a sunroom, it can be a good fit. Sunrooms aren’t usually used all that often, and they can be a bright, fun place for kids to play. Plus, they often have tile floors…

Star Wars The Last Jedi
There are NO SPOILERS ahead! The Husband and I were invited to an advanced screening of Star Wars The Last Jedi. I am a fan of the Star Wars movies; not the stand in line overnight to be the first one to see the movie, but I do enjoy them. The Husband however, if someone will give him the keys to an X-Wing Fighter he would leave me in a millisecond and may never come out of the sky!! He has to see new installments the weekend they hit the screen. There is no line too long. Overall opinions The Husband: It was a good action packed movie with great…

Preventing Family Weight Gain This Winter!
Ah winter. The fresh air, chilled, crisp wind, occasional snow. All you want to do is cuddle up with your family in front of the fireplace with a big blanket with bowls of buttered popcorn and a fun series flowing one after the other on Netflix. In this weather it is so easy to get caught up with eating and consuming tons of warm food and beverages – like hot chocolate! It’s so easy for the whole family to put on weight during the winter because, well, it’s not that great stepping out into the chilly weather. Big hearty stews, extra large pizzas, macaroni-and-cheese. That’s what winter is about right?…
