As bloggers we are artists. We start out with nothing and create something. Each post is a separate piece of work, and one we should be proud to share. Blogging is art, and we create what types of masterpieces we want to been seen. The blank screen is our blank canvas. It is clear of all thoughts and images, and it is up to the blogger what goes in that space. Every blogger has their own style, their own identity, and their own passions. As a … [Read more...]
Disclosure: I was compensated with park tickets for writing this post; however, all opinions are mine and mine alone.

I actually had never even heard of this trail before reading the book, and I … [Read more...]
Today was the first day back to school for the kids. The way our school system works, is that there is an upper elementary and lower elementary. This means that the kids at grades 1st and 4th are at different schools. It was sad to see them getting on different buses and heading off to different schools. Big sister was not there to sit with little brother on the bus anymore. It was even more of a change that both kids were in school for the full … [Read more...]
I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for belVita. I received product samples to facilitate my review and a promotional item as a thank you for participating. We are starting back to school this week! I can't believe summer went by so fast. With my busy work-at-home schedule, it is really hard to get a nutritious breakfast on the table in the mornings. Especially a breakfast that the kids like and will eat! I was so … [Read more...]
