    How Do I Know if I Have a Sleeping Disorder?

    December 11, 2015 /

    How Do I Know if I Have a Sleeping Disorder? Life can be so full of change and stress from a number of causes that (especially if you are a parent) just about anything can trigger sleep loss. We all know how important sleep is to our overall health and how miserable life can be when you go without it. Lots of people have trouble sleeping. But, how can you tell if your problem is just a temporary imbalance, or if you have a more serious sleep disorder? What is normal? Losing sleep because you stayed up too late watching a movie, or were up all night with your sick…

    Saving Money Over the Holidays (it is possible)

    December 11, 2015 /

    Photo credit: BMB Photography I love a good deal.  I think that is why I tend to do my holiday shopping throughout the year.  If I find something on sale that I think a family member or friend might like, and it is on sale, I get super happy.  I love finding just the perfect gift and when it is discounted – even better.  This also goes for shopping for our family’s essentials like paper products (paper towels, napkins, paper cups, etc.), personal products and cleaning supplies.  When you buy everyday essentials in bulk it can save your family a lot of money throughout the year. This holiday season, Sam’s Club is helping shoppers maximize every dollar…

    Marvel’s ANT-MAN Review & Giveaway

    December 10, 2015 /

      “Small is the new spectacular in this latest Marvel winner.” -Michael Sauter (Life & Style) Marvel, the Studio who brought you “The Avengers”, now brings to life one of the original Avengers — Marvel’s Ant-Man. Bring home the epic heist as Ant-man embraces his inner hero and harnesses the unique ability to shrink in scale to save not only the world, but his daughter. I have to be honest, when I first saw the previews for Ant-Man I just wasn’t sold.  Like the first time I saw the previews for Turbo (the movie about fast snails) I was thinking how in the world does a small superhero type character fit…

    Festive Christmas Mantel Decoration Ideas

    December 9, 2015 /

    Can you believe it is the holidays?!  They sure do sneak up on us, don’t they?  One of my favorite things to do is get the house decorated with lots of lights and shimmery things.  This year, I wanted to go with more neutrals and natural elements.  I think it is great to switch things up from year to year and I am thankful I was able to work with the talented interior designer Claire Cannesson Kahn and photographer Beatta Bosworth to showcase our home this holiday season.   Use Flowers: We were contacted by ProFlowers and asked to decorate our mantel with one of their gorgeous Christmas Flowers arrangements. I really like…

    Inspiring New Family Holiday Traditions

    December 8, 2015 /

            This quote by the ever so wise Dr. Seuss is one of my favorites!  For me, the holidays represents a time to show those we care about that we are thinking of them.  And this can be done with a handwritten holiday card, a present that you thought would be just right for them or spending time together. It really isn’t about how much money you spend but more the thought that goes into letting them know you are thinking of them! Spending quality time together really is what it is all about don’t you think?! What are some family traditions in your home? We really love family movie night,…
