    What Do I Do For A Living? The Answer To My Top Asked Question!

    A question I am often asked is “what do you do for a living?” This is a multifaceted answer and requires a little explanation on my part. I am a mom of five (soon to be six!) who wanted the ability to stay home with her kids but also needed to financially have it make sense to do so. I am thankful to have both. I didn’t always have both though. In fact, I struggled financially for several years before figuring it out.

    Presets – My Pictures Before and After

    This post is in partner with Marielle Marie. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more info. I would love to pretend that my life is perfect but it’s far from that. I used to spend so much time tweaking my photos to look just right and it was very draining! The end result was never exactly what I wanted and it left me irritated at the time I spent working on my edits and how they did not look as good as such and such’s photo. Obviously, I know better to compare myself with the next person but I have big goals for…

    I can’t believe it’s March!

    top | leggings | shoes – similar (sold out, OLD NAVY) I cannot believe it’s already March! I honestly feel like this month is going to fly by and it’s going to be jam packed.

It was a once in a lifetime trip and I will never be able to go on another that means as that one did. One of the things that I want to address…
