One of my favorite summer trends is the bright mango yellow color I’ve been seeing everywhere. Earlier this spring, I talked about the bright orange color trend, so it’s clear that bright fruity hues are major this summer. I found some really great pieces I’d love to add to my own wardrobe this summer. I’m…
I’ve been to the UK three times, but never got to Stonehenge. This trip, I made it a priority to do a day trip to Stonehenge. My colleague from Bristol agreed to rent a car (they say hire) to take us around the English countryside. I thought we’d just see Stonehenge. Instead, he took us on…

One of my dear friends is pregnant with her first child. She’s been a bit nervous about it all, so I’ve tried to talk to her my experience. One thing we talked about early on was the baby registry must-haves you actually need. So many parents get overwhelmed and go totally overboard on buying way…

Having drop-in child care near me when we needed it most was such a relief. Here’s the quick story on how I came to feel this way. What do you do if you’re out of town and your husband, who’s home with your young kids, text messages you that he’s become violently ill with stomach…
This shop is sponsored by Kohl’s. All opinions are my own. I’m so glad there are so many summer activities for kids out there! We all look forward to summer time, but with kids out of school, summer can sometimes feel really long. There’s nothing that annoys me more than when my kids tell me…
This post is sponsored by VisionWorks. All opinions are my own. I’ve been ignoring the inevitable for awhile now. It’s probably been at least five years since I’ve needed to wear glasses, for distance, but I’ve refused. My husband (who has perfect distance vision) has been giving me the hardest time. I regularly ask him to…

It’s officially berry season, and I couldn’t be happier. I love when I can get fresh berries at the supermarket for under a dollar. It feels like such a win. My family loves most fruit, but my daughter especially loves fresh blueberries. I bought so many packs last week, I quickly realized I needed to…
In between two work conferences in Europe, I had a chance to hop over to Germany to visit my long-time friend. My college roomie moved to Leipzig Germany last fall and I promised I’d visit her. She’s lived in Europe before, but the timing just never worked for me to visit her. It seemed like…
