One of my goals is to eat more and one of the times I need to eat more is in the morning for breakfast. I thought that if I created some recipes that remind me of the things I love most (aka dessert), that maybe it would convince me to actually eat breakfast. I love sweet sauces, especially when they’re naturally sweet. This maple blueberry compote uses pure maple syrup and frozen blueberries to give you the perfect naturally sweet sauce to use on your favorite breakfast recipes whether it be maple sausage breakfast burritos or your favorite pancake recipe....

Have you seen the creamy lemonade trend that’s been going viral on TikTok? I love creating my own versions of viral TikTok recipes and this one’s a fun one! And honestly, even if you’re not a TikTok user – this creamy drink is still perfect for a hot summer day! I’ve already shared a bunch of different lemonades recipes from homemade strawberry lemonade to blueberry lemonade and even strawberry lemonade popsicles!...

I’ll be honest, I’m not the best when it comes to taking care of my skin. It’s pretty dry, and I’ve never had a ton of acne, so I wash my face when I remember or need to take my makeup off. I’ve had a couple of facials in my lifetime and while my face feels amazing afterwards, I kind of hate the actual facial process. I feel like I’m drowning and can’t breathe during the steaming part....

My husband and I went on a trip to Europe earlier this year. As we were planning, we knew one thing – we wanted to go to Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast in Italy. I knew nothing about Sorrento before going other than that it was a great place to stay if you wanted to visit Amalfi and Pompeii, both highlights on our trip. After visiting for just two days, I fell in love with Sorrento and its bright colors, citrus scent, and delicious pasta....

April is typically a big month for my family with my son’s birthday in early April and then Easter typically a little later in the month (or in March but those years are not my favorite). So I’m always trying to come up with fun themed desserts to make Easter special for my kids so my April birthday son doesn’t feel like he’s getting jipped with two big holidays in one month....

Let’s keep the year of fun Christmas activities going with today’s addition – this fun Christmas i-spy game! My sons love doing any sort of fun seek and find or i-spy game. Whether it’s actually playing i-spy where you have to guess what someone else is looking for or searching for things in one of these fun scavenger hunt ideas – my boys love it! This printable Christmas i-spy takes all of those things and puts them into one fun holiday game!...

I’ve never really been much of an artist, but I do like a good coloring page. And both of my boys really like to color – one inside the lines, one all over the page – so I always try to find fun coloring pages to print for them. Instead of looking for coloring pages from other people this year, I thought I’d finally share some of my own Halloween coloring pages!...

Everyone says that this time that we’ve all been at home is a time to figure out the things that you really want in life. We’ve all been forced into living simpler, slower lives for safety sake and honestly I’ve been loving it. We’ve done everything from a virtual scavenger hunt to my son’s birthday party at home! And we’ve come up with tons of new recipes like the best ever cinnamon streusel coffee cake and better than takeout fried rice....

With camps closed, pools closed, and more and more kids at home this summer – I’m guessing everyone will be looking for ways to keep the kids entertained. I mean it’s only been two weeks and we’ve already played all of these water games, played about a million of these board games for kids, and caught all of the sharks available on our Animal Crossing island. One of my favorite boredom busters for kids is to give them a pile of Legos and ask them to build something....

Who loves pie? I know I do. And with Thanksgiving just around the corner, I thought I’d share a delicious flaky pie crust that you can use for all of your favorite pies! I’ve used this flaky butter crust in our homemade apple pie, in a chocolate pie, and even in a pumpkin pie! Just like good bread makes a good sandwich, a good pie crust makes or breaks a pie....

I know the feeling. You are dying to go on a vacation but a vacation with a toddler is not quite the same vacation you went on pre-kids. I’ve had that feeling way too many times since having my son in 2013 and have finally found a place that I feel like is the perfect vacation spot for families, families with toddlers, and even just adults looking for something new to try out....

21 Bachelorette Party Games Everyone Can Play Bachelorette parties typically include a few things – drinking, boys, something raunchy, and girls having embarrassing fun. Since I don’t drink and wouldn’t ever just go make out with some random guy like in many of the bachelorette party scavenger hunts out there, these bachelorette party games are my solution for people like me. No drinking or bars required – just good hilarious fun themed in typical bachelorette party style with dirty names....

It’s the best chicken enchilada recipe I’ve ever tried and definitely an easy chicken enchiladas recipe that’s perfect for someone making creamy chicken enchiladas for the first time! Definitely a chicken enchilada recipe you’ll want to keep forever! The Best White Chicken Enchiladas I’ve never been a big fan of chicken enchiladas because most often they have either green chilis, onions, or some other sort of ingredient that I personally don’t love....

This banana bread is one the most moist banana breads that I’ve ever tried, perfect for a holiday breakfast or snack. Thanks to #CollectiveBias for giving me an excuse to make it! It’s a great way to #TasteTheMiracle! There are few things that remind me of my mom more than banana bread. She’s the first person that introduced me to banana bread as the perfect way to use those bananas that you just never got around to eating....

I’m a boy mom so that means our house is full of dinosaurs. Dinosaur toys, Jurassic World bedding, shirts with dinosaurs of all shapes and sizes. We did this dinosaur dig for one of the dinosaur party games (right after making these fun foam dinosaurs) at my son’s Disney themed birthday party, and the kids all loved it so I figured I’d share the idea here! The basic idea of the dinosaur dig is that you’ll fill a large bucket with rice and small plastic dinosaurs, dinosaur eggs filled with candy, silly putty eggs, etc....

As part of that retreat, we were given free tickets to the Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween party. Being the influencers we were, we decided we wanted to do a big group costume....

Easy Snickers Poke Cake Two years ago I hosted one of my favorite parties ever to celebrate the start of football season – a chocolate is better than football party. Basically girls enjoying chocolate while the guys enjoyed football and the kids played football bingo. Since it was a chocolate party, I decided to turn one of my favorite candy bars into one of my favorite cakes and this Snickers poke cake recipe was born....

I was invited to an all-expenses paid press event for Christopher Robin & Ralph Breaks the Internet by Disney. All opinions are 100% honest and my own. When I had the chance to attend the Christopher Robin red carpet premiere back in August, I also got the incredible opportunity to attend some presentations on Ralph Breaks the Internet. And I’m so excited to finally be able to share details from my favorite of those presentations – the Oh My Disney Dot Com princess scene!...

One of the big requirements for girls camp each year is to complete a certain number of certification activities (e.g., tying knots, learning first aid) and honestly, I feel like most of the time certification is one of the most boring parts of camp. This year I suggested that we make certification fun with a big girls camp certification activity – a certification Olympics. It was one of the big activities I planned for the week, and all of the girls absolutely loved being able to incorporate the things that they were learning in more fun ways than just reading them out of a book and practicing them as a group....
