Monday, August 31, 2015 by Lolli

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Tyson. The opinions and text are all mine. The fact that my kids feel like this when back to school season comes around every August is a great testament to their schools: Yes, our kids love heading back to school because they have…

I am finally home for good from my summer of traveling. I miss it. I miss being on the road and having daily adventures. I miss the chance to be with my kids – no distractions (because, let’s face it…most of the remote locations we visited did not have great cell phone coverage, and I…

Wednesday, August 26, 2015 by Lolli 2 Comments

I am a member of the Invisalign Mom Advisory Board and my daughter, Necco, is currently receiving her treatment for free. When Necco started her Invisalign Teen treatment a few months ago, she had a perfect resource for information and advice: her older sister. My oldest daughter, Kim, is away at college now but…

I have been away from home more than I’ve been home since mid June….and I’m gone again this week. Since I don’t have all of my vacation photos on my little travel Chromebook, I decided to share a few of my favorite somewhat random Instagram photos from our travels. What have you been up…

This recipe for crispy treat ice cream sandwiches (perfect for summer evenings!) is sponsored by Target, but all thoughts and opinions are my own.

Skillet Apple Crisp #CreativeHOP

‘Tis the season for apples and apple recipes! Apples were always my favorite fruit, but I’ve been allergic to them for the last 16 years or so (it’s a long story…something called oral allergy syndrome). Since I can’t eat many of the fresh fall fruits that I used to love, and since I can…
