Turkey Run Start Park

This weekend we decided to get away for the day. Our family needed an unplugged day outside with each other. Honestly we have only hiked together a few times because, well kids. Its hard with 3 littles all so close in age. When one wants carried, they ALL want carried. With summer coming to an end I'm making it a goal to get outdoors before it's too cold. Anyways, we decided to go for it. It was a drive for us, but came prepared. We packed extra outfits for the boys along with food for lunch. If you're like me, you're all for saving money so here is what we had! We  prepped a cooler with fruit, tortillas, lunch meat -- specifically chicken and pepperonis-- cheese, crackers, carrots, raisins; just things that are simple, easy & we can take on the go. PLUS lots and lots of water. In the map we weren't sure where to plug in our GPS so we stopped by the camp store before we  went too far and the cashier was sooo helpful. The shop was awesome. In front o...

Breathless Riviera Cancun

T his past weekend, my husband and I were able to get away with a few friends to enjoy some sunshine in Mexico. Let me just say it was a much needed relaxing getaway.  Marriage is hard. Add kids into the mix, its pure chaos. We decided to get married and have kids STAT. We knew that's what we wanted and thankfully God liked our plan. But with that came struggle. We barely knew how to live with each other and love each other let alone balance other human beings. We made it a goal to go on one vacation each year, just us -- A getaway so we can reconnect and get time just us. This year we went big! My 30th, his birthday, our anniversary we had lots to celebrate so we went back to one of our FAVORITE locations: Breathless Riviera Cancun. If you’ve never been to Mexico, put this place on your list. I will warn you however, you get spoiled.  Let me share with you my favorite things about this resort!  This resort is newer (roughly 5 years). It is an all inclusive, ad...

Genuine Huckleberry Finn

Do you ever get so caught up in your to do list, just going about your day every single day trying to get as much done as you can? Y'all know I'm a stay at home working mom. Balance, well that's not a thing. Some days I rock the mom hat, other days im slaying my business. The hard part for me is that I LOVE my job. No literally I get up every morning at 4 am with FIRE ready to take on the day. I sometimes forget that the regular days just are boring for my boys. Don't get me wrong, they love to hang out. They love each other and they are the best friends. They get along so well that it truthfully is so easy to let them do their thing. Lately I've been going through the motions. Just normal day to day but neeeeding to get out of our house. So I can have a break, so they can have a break and so we can get real time together. My friend had reached out wanting to get the kids together to play in the creek (which my boys love) she mentioned fishing, again...
