Gardening Update + What I’m Learning About Canning
I don’t know how it happened but fall is right around the corner. We are 8 months into 2020 and ready to plant our winter garden. The garden that the kids and I planted earlier this spring did exceptionally well. A few things just didn’t grow like we wanted, spinach, kale and beets didn’t produce like previous years but I’m proud of what we’ve grown, is still coming up to pick and what we can start planting for fall.

Nolan and Harper get SO excited when it’s our family game night and I wanted to take a little bit to share how much of a positive light this has been in our lives as a family.…

What’s Your Skin Twin?
Can you believe it only took a bottle of foundation to join as a consultant for the discount? I had no desire to join the Beautycounter movement until I realized how much I loved Beautycounter makeup. I ordered and tried a bottle of the Tint Skin foundation by Beautycounter and that was the first product I tried and one of my all time favorites. Earlier this year, it got a make over and upgraded into a skincare + makeup two in one and it really brought back memories on why exactly I fell in love after just trying ONE product. WHAT IS SKIN TWIN FEATHERWEIGHT FOUNDATION? With 18 buildable shades,…

This post is in partner with AirDoctor. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. 2020 has made me look into and refocus my attention on many different things, one of those being the quality of the air in my home. As many of you know, I strive to live a nontoxic lifestyle. This is something that is a continuous and is something that we can all do. Here I am, several years into this transition because I’ve decided to be happy with progress over perfection, and I added an air purifier to our home. I focused hard on air purifying when Vivi…
