5 Ways to Get Fit with your Kids

What more do I love than fitness?  My family getting fit together!  My two munchkins are the reason I make fitness a priority.  I not only want them to see me taking care of myself, but I also want them to know that it is what we do as a family. Disclaimer: This post was […]

Happy Birthday to My Love {Weekend Recap}

On Friday we started a weekend-long celebration for the main man in our house: my hubby!  All he wanted for his 34th Birthday was time with us- and that is what he got. But before I recap the weekend in its entirety, I want to give a little shoutout to the Birthday guy… Tribute This […]

Happy First Birthday to my Son, M

I can’t believe it has been 1 year since we welcomed this little man into the world- what an absolute blessing he has been.  I have been searching for the words for this birthday tribute.  I have started and stopped this post several times in the last couple of days.  There are no words to […]

Happy 3rd Birthday to My Munchkin, C

Happy third Birthday to the little girl who first made me a Mommy!  I cannot believe it has been three years since she has graced us with her presence.  I do not even remember what life was like before her.  She brings so much joy, laughter… and some times “head scratching” to our home- I […]

What Should You Be Putting In Your Grocery Cart?

August 13, 2015 By Hollie 13 Comments

What Should You Be Putting In Your Grocery Cart?

What percentage of  your grocery store is devoted to highly processed food?  Just think about it for a second.  How many aisles do you walk down and the shelves are filled with highly processed foods?  The problem here is that it is what sells.  Grocery stores wouldn’t put the food there if it didn’t sell.

The Man I Call Dad

June 21, 2015 By Hollie Leave a Comment

Today is Father’s Day.  I have read a million posts about how everyone says they have the best father.  I am not here to argue.  After all my biological father… well, he is not the best.  He sucks.  Sperm donor is a the best phrase.  In fact, he deserves no more explanation. There is the […]

Toddler Energy Burners {Part I}

February 16th…. according to that silly groundhog, we still have 4 weeks of winter left.  If you are like me, you are probably thinking, “how am I going to get through 4 more weeks of winter with this rambunctious toddler?”  Plus, I am not confident that it will only be 4 more weeks: March in […]

New Year, New Goals {2015}

We are 7 days into the New Year and it feels good to me!  I have ready many blogs and statues that say, “I don’t make New Year’s resolutions,” or statistics about people who make resolutions and don’t stick with them.  I am the opposite. I am all for goals for the New Year: goals […]

Good morning!  I hope each one of you had a wonderful, relaxing Christmas with the ones you love most.  Besides a little bout with mastitis, we enjoyed several Christmas celebrations over the last week, and are now onto our final Christmas gift: a ski trip.  Before we get on the road, I want to share […]
