Disclaimer: I am in no way associated with the product or brand, nor am I a certified expert in Lashify Lash Extensions or the like. This is strictly my personal, consumer review. I’ve had lash extensions before – which I love – but I just couldn’t keep up with the 1.5 – 2 hour appointments […]
Mother’s Day is quickly approaching and this particular transfer immediately caught my eye on launch day. I mean, who doesn’t love an awesome Wife/Mom/Boss?! I am so blessed to have so many inspirational women in my life. Now, more than ever, are we feeling the pressures of having to be all the things, and do […]

April 24, 2018. Surgery Day. Nerves and excitement all rolled into one emotion as we headed to the hospital early that morning. Max was going to have surgery to get her ostomy taken down.

As a mother, you live for your children and give everything to make sure they are protected from any harm. You do all you can to prevent them from experiencing any type of pain. As a pediatric nurse, you comfort families during what is often the worst time in their lives. You are used to […]
Hello and welcome to my blog. This is something that I’ve been wanting to do for a long time and I finally decided to just do it. Not sure what will come of it, if anything, and honestly I don’t know if I expect anything to come of it, but I figured let’s just see […]
