Do hard things

"It's easier said than done." they say. Hard things are not normally something we get excited about. We've all had to encounter hard things in our lives and if you haven't you will soon enough. My childhood wasn't really full of hard things. I was adopted at birth and I think I had a pretty awesome childhood. I remember only getting one spanking, I don't remember having to do chores, I played sports and made good grades. Hard things started to happen in High School for me. I fell ...

Road trip to Gaylord Opryland Resort

This post is sponsored by Gaylord Opryland Resort. All opinions are my own. This summer was unlike any other. With Covid-19 nothing was really the same.

Nashville was a city I visited last year by myself and I had the best time! I found the Gaylord Opryland on Instagram and had to visit!!!! I was so ...

The easiest peach cobbler

This post was sponsored by Kroger and Prima Peaches. All opinions expressed in the post are my own and not those of The Kroger Co. When I was a kid, my dad would always have peaches and cottage cheese. I always wanted to eat it also. Peaches were a fruit I loved to eat. My mom would make peach cobbler and I was a huge fan of it! It’s actually not hard to make! Peaches are the biggest part of the recipe, so be sure to get good ones! Prima® Yellow Peaches can be found at your local ...

Things to do in Hot Springs, Arkansas

This post is sponsored by Visit Hot Springs in Arkansas. All opinions are 100% my own. We were so excited to head to a state we have never explored! I have drove through it but that was about it! Our family loves to travel, but only destinations that are close.. we have 3 children and traveling far distances in a car isn't ideal. Am I right? We decided to take the kids to Nashville but did not want to drive the full 12 hours. We talked about going to another city first to break up that ...

How to throw a cat birthday party!

I had already received her kitty cat party goods because I planned her party way in advance! We talked about a kitty theme and stuck with it! Leighton turned 3 back in May and during that time we decided not to have her birthday party because of Covid. She had a drive by parade and the Unicorn snow cone truck came to her house! It was perfect! I had every intention on still hosting a smaller birthday party with a few of her toddler friends and so thankful it was able to ...
