This post brought to you by Netflix. All opinions are my own. As we get older, milestones are few and far between. Landing your dream job, getting married, having a baby. But kids, on the other hand, have a lot worth celebrating. From bringing home your first pet to going to your first high school dance, frame-worthy moments go far beyond the baby book. In recognition of "mini milestones," we've compiled a list of movies and TV episodes that … [Read more...]
Project Sunlight is Turning the Table on Child Hunger | #ShareAMeal
Project Sunlight is Turning the Table on Child Hunger Promotional item received. All opinions are my own. Child hunger, often perceived to be a world-away issue, is now an all too common reality facing millions of America’s most vulnerable. As incredible as it seems for many living in the land of plenty, an estimated 16 million children under 18 years old live in “food insecure” households which means they don’t know where – or when – their … [Read more...]
Your Best Friend Deserves a DogVacay | Make Money Watching Dogs
Thank you to DogVacay for sponsoring today's conversation. All opinions are my own. Our pets are like our second set of children... and in some cases our only children. We take them everywhere with us. Some even carry their furry friends around in bags so they are always by their side. But sometimes... we have to leave them behind. Leaving our best friends at a kennel for boarding is terrifying for them and heartbreaking for us. We … [Read more...]
Avoid Group Therapy Switch to Cortana Personal Assistant | Nokia Lumia 635 Smartphone
Avoid Group Therapy Switch to Cortana Personal Assistant Promotional item received. All opinions are my own. If I had the money, I would totally hire a personal assistant.

Find Your Halloween at Kmart
Find Your Halloween at Kmart Promotional items received. All opinions are my own. When someone mentions Halloween, I instantly think trick or treating, decorating, parties, pumpkin carving and candy. Did you know, this year, Americans will spend an average of $72 on Halloween, $7 billion overall (National Retail Federation, 2014)? INSANE! This year we decided to make our dollar go a little further and have our candy bowl a tad bit … [Read more...]
Target and Dove Want YOU to Celebrate Feeling Beautiful
Sponsored post by Lunchbox, all opinions are 100% my own. I was bullied and teased enough about my weight as a child that the words continued to haunt my head into adulthood. Until recently. No matter what I weighed, I always saw in the mirror what people told me I was. I recently decided that they were liars. This began my journey to transform my thinking... which in turn is finally transforming my body. I'm not sure what helped flip … [Read more...]
