Recent Cooking Fails

Cooking fails are a part of life. But there comes a time when you think you have it all together, right? Funny how life sneaks up and proves you wrong! My Failed Roast A few months ago, you might remember a photo on my Facebook page. It was a beautiful crockpot roast—before it cooked. It…

Prepping to Travel

I recently left home for a one-week stay in Nashville for Beachbody Summit (more on that later!), and let me tell you: It’s no easy task coordinating schedules when I’m away. And it’s even more of a challenge when Jeff travels with me. With four kids, it’s easy for Jeff and I to get disconnected. We get…

How to Deal With “Busy”

I’ve heard it said that if you need to get something done, ask a busy person to do it for you. They’re busy because they know how to get things done. Well, I’m usually busy, but that doesn’t mean that I’m always on top of things. Often times, I struggle with the things I need…

The Photo That Changed My Life

Everyone has THE PHOTO. You know what I mean, right? The photo that changes it all. The photo that makes you stop dead in your tracks and say…this is not me. This is not the person I want to be. No more. It is time to make a change. Well…I want to share with you…

Who Has Time For That? (Not This Mom)

Isn’t it crazy how it felt like there was so much time when we were kids? All kinds of activities, visiting with friends, trying new things, never feeling rushed. Now, I don’t even keep a written calendar because the act of actually writing down all the things that have to happen gives me anxiety. Seriously,…

A Day in the Life of a Mom in the Car

I spend a lot of time in the car. A LOT of time. Someone asked me the other day what I do when I have to hang out in the car almost all day. Here’s the answer… The other day when I was driving my youngest preschool we sang, for the whole 10 minute drive…

I’ve Got Beachbody On Demand – I Can Workout Anytime, Anywhere

Yippee! Things got a little bit more flexible for me with Beachbody On Demand. I’m committed to working out 30 minutes everyday and sometimes, when I’m spending part of my life in the car, that can be a real challenge. Now, all I need is my phone because Beachbody On Demand means I can stream…

Bravely Conquering Meal Planning Overwhelm (Well, At Least Trying)

The next step in my journey to conquering meal planning is, well, planning. Many, many thanks to everyone that posted a recipe for me in response to my previous blog post. That was wonderfully inspiring and really gave me the kick-start I needed to start embracing meal planning. As I’ve mentioned before, late night sports for our…

Insanity Max: 30 – Scary but Exciting!

It’s all mental. I don’t like to work out, well at least that is what I tell myself. Probably not true though. I sure have lots of excuses each day on why I need to do other things instead of exercise. TRUTH: I love how I feel post workout, so I wonder why I am…
