Daily Style – Surviving a Day At the Park

The family and I took a quick little trip down to Carlsbad on Father’s Day to go to Legoland and relax a bit.  Art’s work schedule is preventing him from taking a vacation during summer break so we had to make a quick getaway while we could.  Walking around an amusement park all day while […]

For the Love Of – Happy Weekends

Good morning friends. It’s almost 8 am and my husband is still asleep, in an Umami Burger coma. The kids spent the night at my parent’s house last night, and while our original plan was to go to the movies, the pregnant girl’s belly had other plans. And so we skipped a movie and decided […]

I’m a Magician!

People are asking me for advice and style tips?  Haha, that’s funny!  Seriously though, I kid!  I’m flattered that I’ve been asked to guest post over at Delighted Momma, one of my favorite ladies on the interwebs.  Have you ever checked out all her DIY facial and beauty products?  She’ll save you a ton of […]
