Things I  Love & Use Regularly Under $40

Today, I  wanted to share a bunch of items – from clothes and accessories to beauty and travel products – that I  use regularly and want to recommend! CLOTHES/ACCESSORIES I’ve been wearing these Red Cat-Eye Sunglasses nonstop – they bring me joy! ($15) I  have three of these Happiness Runs Crop tanks and likely will order a few more soon.

Review: AG1 from Athletic Greens

Review: AG1 from Athletic Greens

Early January, I  asked my IG community their thoughts on Athletic Greens. Like most people on the Internet, I’d seen the ads and many content creators sharing about it. I  was curious to hear real feedback and before I  had a chance to order, my friend dropped of a bag of AG1 for me to try! Here we are, almost three months later, and I wanted to share my honest thoughts + feedback after drinking AG1 daily. Note: this blog post is NOT sponsored, but I  do get a small affiliate commission if you happen to order via my link. So…what is Athletic Greens / […]

travel adventures: ICELAND!

travel adventures: ICELAND!

My husband recently quit his job (after 8.5 years!) and wanted to travel! And…we pretty spontaneously booked a kid-free trip to Iceland! We’ve heard wonderful things about Iceland from friends (and strangers) but never made it a priority to go. While I know tons of people go to Iceland with kids and love it, it hasn’t been on the top of our family travel bucket list. So this felt like the perfect kid-free destination for us! Now that we’re on the other side of the trip, we’d definitely love to come back with the girls when they are a little older. Anyway, here’s a huge […]

Favorite Waterfalls in South Iceland

Favorite Waterfalls in South Iceland

Seljalandsfoss I feel like I’ll remember our time at Seljalandsfoss forever. We visited right around sunset and I was just amazed at the beauty of this special canyon (including the nearby Glujrabui). The light was perfect and we even saw a rainbow coming out in front of the waterfall – just magic! 🌈 This is a very popular spot and we saw lots of big vans + buses of people, but it seemed to be less busy the later it got in the day. We were bummed we couldn’t hike behind the waterfall (sometimes possible at Seljalandsfoss) but still loved getting to see this waterfall! […]

Planning a Safari Party: The Food

I  had so much fun planning Lucy’s 5th birthday party and wanted to share some deeper dive blog posts about different elements of the party. Today, I’m sharing all about the food! You can find more about the party theme/decor HERE and party activities HERE. SAFARI PARTY FOOD My mom and mother-in-law handled all the food for the party and it was great!

They were SO festive and adorable! My mom also made an animal cracker […]
