    East Coast Travels

    I love to travel; there is just something about seeing different parts of the world. But seeing all the amazing places with my husband is just a favorite of mine. My husband is always on top of his game when it comes to booking my dream trips.. You know the trips I constantly talk about and tell him we need to go explore these places. Back in 2022 he surprised me by completely booking a trip I’ve been trying to go on for years. I had no idea until one day he called me on his lunch break telling me I need to check my email, to my surprise it…

    At Home Self-Care Facial

    Happy Friday! I wanted to share a little self care routine that I do. I am not a professional at all-but I do some research and follow different estheticians and dermatologist. I’m also friends with a few who will give me some pointers. I still follow up with both- I just do this in between sessions/ consultations. What works for some might not work for others. Everyone has different skin needs. *This post may contain affiliate links, which means I may receive a small commission, at no cost to you, if you make a purchase through a link!* Moving on- I like to start my little self care by dermaplaning…

    Easy Peanut Butter & Chocolate Chip Cookies

    Hello friends, I hope everyone is having a great day! I wanted to hop on to share a simple peanut butter cookie recipe. My mom is all about baking- any time we go to her house to visit we get spoiled with all kinds of treats. Even when she comes to our house she will rummage through the cabinets to see what I have for her to put something together for the kids. One day she was over and the kids kept asking her for some cookies. I didn’t have much baking stuff that day. So, she just threw some things together to make some good treats. It was super…

    Sunday Morning

    Find you a Sunday morning. Find you a Sunday morning. What I mean by that is.. Find you a man who even if he works all week long he makes it a thing that every Sunday is family day. He works a manual labor job five days a week sometimes six sometimes seven.. You just never know. He wakes up before the sun comes up and is home by dinner time. Those times he works weekends.. Well those are the LONG weeks. At first I hated the work schedule. After awhile.. I finally realized those long weeks.. The over time.. He was doing that for me.. For our kids..For us..…

    Texas—> Massachusetts PT. 2

    Hey, Hi, Hello!!! It is overdue for this post- ever since the holidays we have been busy, busy. But we will skip those details for now and jump into this.. If you want to look at the first part of this post I’ll link it right here. PART ONE The next day we woke up in Salem, got dressed and went to check out to head back over to Boston. We took a train ride, which I’d recommend doing. It was a smooth little ride. When we got to our stop we walked around the train station and I of course had to grab a cup of coffee and then…

    Christmas Goodie Baskets

    It’s the most wonderful time of the year!! If you have been keeping up with us you can probably tell I’m all about traditions, creating new ones and keeping old ones alive. When we were kids my parents always let us open one gift before Christmas and most of the time it was pajama’s. As we got older it would change but we were always given a little something. A few years ago I kept seeing post about Christmas Eve boxes, which I thought was a really cool idea. But a year ago I decided I wanted to start a tradition of creating Christmas goodie baskets. I wanted to give…

    Candied Pecans

    If you love candied nuts, you will love this simple recipe. It reminds me of the holidays when my mom and I would go Christmas shopping. There was certain stores that were always making fresh candied nuts. We would always buy a bag to share and then one to take home for later. It was probably one of my favorite things. Ever since I can remember my mom was always making something sweet, especially around the holidays. My mom and I would bake so much stuff for family and friends and even just stuff for us to enjoy. Christmas candies was a big thing, we would stay up late and…

    This is a quick and easy recipe that is great for a chilly evening. Fall weather has finally arrived to Texas and I’m so excited to be busting out all of the soup and crockpot recipes for the next several months- you know since Winter is right behind.

This recipe was a big hit in my house everyone went back for seconds including my picky eater. That was a WIN!! Ingredients: 1LB Italian sausage 4 cups of Chicken Broth 8oz cream cheese 20oz…

    Halloween Boo Baskets

    I love Halloween- growing up my mom has always been big into Halloween. So, we can just say that’s where I get it from. I enjoy decorating with all the cute Halloween decorations; and all of the different Halloween crafts along with watching all of the classic Halloween movies. I love to do all of these things with my kids- they enjoy all of it as much as I do. So, I try to make each month a little special especially when there is something (big) going on that month like a holiday or some sort of celebration. I put together little lesson plans and crafts for each month.. Of…

    Texas—> Massachusetts

    I’ve taken a little break from the blog and now I’m ready to jump back in. Back in July, Cody sent me a text while he was at work telling me to check my email. To my surprise it was tickets to my dream trip- a trip I’ve been trying to go on for a few years now but things kept coming up. The trip was planned for my birthday. We arrived at the airport the morning of my birthday. Got our bags checked in and then went to our gate. While we were waiting we went to grab some breakfast and coffee. It was time to board the plane…
