Christmas Pajamas & Holiday Countdown!

* This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Joe Boxer pajamas available at Kmart.  I received a promotional item in exchange for my participation in this campaign. All opinions expressed in this post are truly my own. With Christmas just around the corner, my kids and I have started our holiday countdown!

My kids are having so much fun opening up a gift each day! Continue reading...

Holiday Stars Gallery Wall

By

Hi, everyone! Today I am sharing a recent project I completed for the holidays at Ask Anna! I share decorating ideas at Ask Anna every first Thursday of the month. Today I am sharing a pretty holiday stars gallery wall that I made for my home's living room! The yarn stars were simple and fun to make, but they have a big impact! What I like about the stars are that they fit right in with my living room's bright and sunny decor. Plus,the stars don't too overtly say "Christmas," so I could leave them up if wanted to, even after the holidays are over! Hop on over to Ask Anna to see more Continue reading...

Cyber Monday at Kohls

By

I am not much of a Black Friday shopper, so I slept in on Friday instead of hitting the stores. (I am not one for getting up very early or for pushing and shoving.) LOL! But I will be hitting Kohls.com today for Cyber Monday, as I am a HUGE cyber Monday shopper!  #KohlsBlackFriday continues online at Kohls.com today at for Cyber Monday! I just love shopping at Kohl's. Kohl's is where I buy most of my own clothing, and it is also a great place to pick up deals for my kids and for my husband. And of course, because I am a home decor freak, I can often be found stalking Kohl's home decor Continue reading...

Free $5 for Enrolling in DD Perks!

By

“I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for Dunkin’ Brands. I received a promotional item to thank me for my participation.” My kids and I have been especially busy this year since they have started middle school! Middle school means that we are up earlier -- at 6:30 -- and we are busier after school!  On our way to their after-school activities, I often stop by Dunkin' Donuts to get myself a large hot tea for some much needed caffeine,  and some donuts or hash browns for the kids! Since DD Perks is a great money saver for families on the run, I Continue reading...

How to Save at Christmas #FinancialPeace

By

As a stay-at-home mom with only a part-time income, it is important to me and my family that we don't go over budget this holiday season. So that means that I will be carefully watching our Christmas spending and will be using every cost-saving measure that I can to make sure that my family enjoys the holiday season without spending more money than we need to! It is important to my husband and I that we only spend modestly, since as the parents of two tweens, the college years are getting closer and closer! My husband and I would love to send our children to the best colleges we can without Continue reading...

#OurLand: Work To Protect Open Spaces

By

My kids' lives, like so many children's  lives these days, are very scheduled. They have after-school clubs and activities, plus their music lessons in nearby Princeton. So, when my kids have the chance to run around and play, they love it! My kids and I adore taking trips together to the many local parks in our area. That's why I am joining the Trust for Public Land's movement to create and protect parks right in our own backyards. This is the TPL's mission: "The Trust for Public Land creates parks and protects land for people, ensuring healthy, livable communities for generations to come. Continue reading...
