Kansas City: Family Day With Ward Parkway Center
This is a sponsored conversation with Ward Parkway, but all thoughts and opinions are my own. With Winter break upon us, I wanted to share one of the best places in Kansas City to spend a family day...Ward Parkway Center. We have been going here for years, because it's one-stop and we can all find something we enjoy. From shopping to a movie and grabbing a bite to eat; it's the perfect spot to spend the day if you're looking for something to do with the family. As I mentioned, we have been hanging out here for years. We use to live about five minutes from Ward Parkway and always saw movies, shopped at Target, Trader Joes and Old Navy. At that time there weren't as many food options, but ... read more

2019 Holiday Gift Guide: Amazon Gifts For Toddler Girls
Another gift guide coming at ya! I’m having sooo much fun putting these together for you guys! I just love getting gifts for my kids. It's just so magical finding things they'll love...and to see their faces when they open those gifts. It's just amazing and makes my heart so happy and full. With that said, buying for two kids can get costly...and if you have more than two things can really add up. We really wanted to get girls tablets, but so many options are pretty expensive. So we grabbed these for the girls, the reviews are great and a few mom's I know say they're perfect for kids. Their big gift from Santa is this balance beam. If you been here a while, then you know my girls love ... read more

Sometimes I look around and realized that EVERYONE is wearing blanket scarves, but in different ways than me.

Budget Friendly Unicorn Birthday Party
Aria turned six? How did that happen?! My little girl is getting so big, it’s killing me! We threw her a unicorn birthday party with a few of her friends to celebrate! She was so excited, even though literally about half the kids she invited were sick with either a cold thanks to the changing weather, or out of town. But she still had a blast at her unicorn birthday party! I’m always a little stressed when it comes to planning birthday parties, which is why I usually order a bounce house or rent out a place. It's just easier and and makes my job less stressful. But, this year, since Aria is in school and we live close to family again I wanted to get back into my party planning days and do ... read more
