I would have to say this is one of the most popular gift guides every year. Emery and Anisten’s favorite things they’re eyeing each year! Check out the WOMEN’S GIFT GUIDE for more ideas. Toiletry Bags – Great to keep things ultra organized. Bling Sting – If you’ve got a driver, having one of these could save their life! It’s a seatbelt cutter and glass breaker in one. She probably won’t be excited about it but you will. Notebooks – Thought these were cute to journal with or use for school…

Really wishing in Spring with the sandals.. but still staying warm in a sweater haha. Sweater is from Everlane. This…

I get asked all the time is what face products Emery and Anisten use and if I let them use the same stuff I do. I asked Em to round up all the things she uses on a regular basis and this is what she gave me:

I have gone back and forth a few times about writing this post mainly because I wasn’t sure where to start! Like I said on Instagram, I am definitely not an expert and I will never claim to be. Almost 8 months ago Braun and I made the decision to start working out and doing something with our mornings that would set us on the right path and help us have more energy. I think every person who crosses the threshold of a gym has their goals in mind. Weightloss, bulking, toning, energy…no two…

My kids LOVED this when they were little and Emery just rediscovered her love for it again. She made it for the boys and they devoured it! It’s delicious on toast, pancakes, french toast, and so much more. Plus, it’s so dang easy to make! GRAB THE INGREDIENTS: KITCHEN FAVORITES:

Partnership with Walmart It’s no secret that I don’t cook or bake a lot… when I do it’s usually the…

Alll my favorite beauty products in one place! Check out the TRAVELER GIFT GUIDE for more of my tired and true favorites. Makeup Bag – I tried a ton of makeup bags this year and this one came out as the winner. It lays completely flat so you can see all your products. It is wipeable, has cute texture and is fairly compact! Eyelash Serum – The best eyelash serum I’ve used ever. I have super sensitive eyes so I had to go through a couple days of irritation before they got used to it, but it…

Full disclosure – I don’t like to save stuff. I don’t save every drawing that my kids do at school. Art projects don’t have a long lifespan. And if my kids have ignored it long enough, whatever ‘it’ is gets donated or goes in the trash. I’m talking about the stuff you have and need around the house. Like batteries, hair stuff…you know, the stuff you either need in the same place all the time or out of the way! I did write about one of my favorite containers last year and this one alone is a…

This isn’t my first rodeo. It’s the third. The most common question I get asked is “why did you get braces, your teeth were already so straight!” You’re right. They were. But my bite was so off! I started to wonder if that was what was causing my migraines. Clenching my teeth all night and wake up sore, plus my front teeth hit and my back ones didn’t so I’ve got a cracked front tooth and a chipped front tooth…I was a mess! So, while my teeth may have looked straight, they just didn’t feel…

HAPPPPY BIRTHDAY EMERY! This girl made me a mama 14 years ago and since then it’s been nothing short of a hilarious, fun-packed ride. She’s witty, kind, responsible, hilarious, laughs a LOT (especially at herself! 😂), loves her sleep, asks me on sushi dates, is the best babysitter, crafter, gymnast & is just SO FUN to be around. I literally couldn’t function without her. She is truly the best of the best. And this girl marches to the beat of her own drum! So I had her put together her…
