If...


What if I actually did things I set out to do every time I made plans to change things in my life?
What if I actually stuck to a diet for more then a week...
What if I actually got off my butt and exercised..
What if I made some of those healthy recipes I keep pinning...
What if I used all the cleaning tips I've found on pinterest...
What if I got rid of the clutter in my room, in my closet, in my kids room, in my house...
What if I kept my car clean for more than a day...
What if I did a load of laundry then immediately put it away...
What if I finished something I started rather than letting my things I do get pushed out of the way...
What if I started limiting T.V. time...
What if I worked harder on budgeting our money...
Things on my mind.
Things I want to change.
hmmmm....
It's all up to me.

America's Next Top Wooliter Party



Thanks to Crowdtap and Woolite I was picked to host an America's Top Wooliter Party.
We had so much fun playing denim trivia.
And everyone was really excited to take their sample home
and try out the new woolite dark wash!



Can't wait for everyone to see how great this detergent is. I will be buying this again. 
Woolite has always been an awesome brand and adding 
this dark wash was such a great idea. 
After we played the trivia game, we sat down to an awesome barbequed dinner
and talked about how we would not be staining any jeans
with barbeque sauce, but if we did, we have are handy dandy 
woolite dark wash samples ready!
Thank you crowdtap for giving me this awesome opportunity.
Make sure you check out Crowdtap so you can
sign up for all the great sample shares they have to offer. 
And check out facebook for the Woolite facebook page!



All opinions are my own, I was not paid to write this post. I did receive a box full of party supplies to host a party.

OldNavy BathingSuits!!! Lets go shopping!

Have I told you how much I adore Old Navy
Yes I know I have. And once again
I have been selected for a sample share with Old Navy and Crowdtap.
I received two coupons one for me and one to share with a friend 
to get an Old Navy bathing suit of our choice.
 I was beyond excited. With it being absolutely sweltering outside living in Florida, we enjoy
cooling off in the pool a lot, so this was perfect!
I couldn't wait to get my hands on some swim suits to try on.
My friend Amber and I set out on our adventure to Old Navy and for a little girls night out.
We tried on many suits. Here are our favorites.


The color selection was awesome, lots of nice summer colors. And there were all kinds of styles to choose from: one pieces, Tankini, mix and match, bandue, regular bikini, 
short bottoms, tie bottoms, and regular bottoms. 
The selection of styles had just about anything you could think of. If you are in need of a new bathing suit, Old Navy would totally be the place to go.
Also make sure to visit Crowdtap and see what its all about for a chance to apply for one of these sample shares. 


Thank you Crowdtap for supplying me with coupons for myself and one friend, these are all my personal opinions.

Hailey and Kindergarten



 There is a saying that goes something like this, 
"nothing in life is constant but change." 
After having children there is something about that sentence that always makes me stop and think. I'm constantly aware of the changing in our lives, of my family, and our children. There is always change. Even in life with out children this statement is so true, change is always going to happen. 
Children are always growing, learning, becoming something.
Having kids opened my eyes to things I never gave a second glance 
or thought about. But there is one milestone (among MANY) that I think 
a lot of parents will always remember.The first day of Kindergarten. 
That day has come and gone.
 In a blink of an eye.


Thinking back on that day I remember how excited Hailey was, but at the same time, I could see the nervousness in her.
The way she was holding her hands, and moving her feet,
the look on her face when we were in the car and driving to her new school.
The way she couldn't wait to wear her new back pack. 
Picking out her first day clothes. Everything about it was so special,
and a once in a lifetime moment.
The difference from her first day to last day pictures are remarkable.
The confidence that came from going to kindergarten and being a
"big girl" is written all over her face. 
It says "Hey look at me, I sooo know what I'm doing, and guess what I'm so ready to drive you crazy stay home and be with you for the WHOLE ENTIRE summer."

 From that tiny little half smile to this. I'm ready mom. I did it.
She has grown so much, and learned so many things in that time span.
And all I can say is wow.
I'm so PROUD of you Hailey.
I can't wait to see what next year brings.
I can't wait to see how much you grow. I love you so much.

Summer time

Its coming. And I can feel it. The sun is shinning and it feels 
like it's 100 degrees outside.
But at the same time with out much notice except a few dark clouds the rain starts to roll in.
But that's Florida summer for you. 
Hailey is about to be out of school, and I'm actually excited. 
I can't wait to have time to do things and not have to worry about picking her up at a certain time.
And no more waking miss grumpy pants up in the morning and fighting 
over what color socks she is wearing for the day. 
I have so many plans, going swimming at grammys, playing out side with the hose, going to friends houses for play dates, going to lakes park, playing at the regular parks, and I have a box full of crafts for the girls.
I'm going to be wrist deep in glitter glue and I can't wait!
