Healthy Berry Baked Oatmeal
The weather was slightly cooler this past weekend which led me to want to bake ALL the things! I get the kids involved with most of my kitchen cooking and they LOVED helping me make this yummy baked oatmeal. Sometimes we want something hot out of the oven for our breakfast and this is the easiest thing to throw together. You could even make it in your blender for extra ease. I baked a really big one and halved it. One side for us, one for our sweet neighbors down the street. I love cooking, it really is my love language. I am sure that ya’ll have already figured this…

Our Homeschool Journey and Lunches Thanks to Planetbox

Now that I’ve had a little time to get into a groove with school this year, I am ready to share more about it.

Lettuce Taco ‘Bout It
Food blogs are back and will be better than ever! I promise to share easy to make, healthy and delicious recipes that the entire family will love.

He could eat a steak and fries for every meal and in between and never think twice. Me on the other hand, I love variety, mixing it up and trying new things. When we go to a restaurant I am the first to ask…

My Makeup Routine with Three Little’s
dress | shoes | makeup As a mom, I tend to put myself last. Everything that I try to do for myself always falls to the back burner and I end up tapped out and raising my white flag. I rarely get out of yoga pants and a comfy vneck tshirt but when I do decide to leave the house, I am thankful for a quick makeup routine that helps me look a little less like a mombie. When Derrek and I actually had a date (these don’t happen enough and I want to make sure we do this more often) last weekend, I was able to dress up and…

My “Why”
A few years ago I began my journey into a more natural life, and one of the ways I started this was by changing my makeup routine. I threw away all of my drug store Maybelline, Cover Girl and even my beloved Clinique products. I did so visiting the Environmental Working Group website and flipping out over how toxic the ingredients were that I was applying to my skin daily! The Skin Deep database is a great online resource that lists the chemical ingredients of thousands of products, and highlights a few of the worst on the list. Be aware that even the Environmental Working Group cautions against jumping to conclusions about…
