*I teamed up with doTERRA to bring you this post. I know we technically have 9 more days until Spring officially makes her debut, but we have recently had some warm days here in northern Utah that have me thinking that Spring is trying to pull a fast one on Mother Nature.  It has me a springy […]

*This post is brought to you in partnership with Better Body Foods. One of my favorite non-dairy milks is oat milk, but I’m very picky about my oat milk.  I’ve found that many of the commercially available milks either have added sugar (I’d rather be in control of how much sugar I add, thank you […]

Happy Valentine’s Day!  I hope your day is a good one so far.  Monkey added a new word to her growing repertoire: kitty.  She heard our cat meowing on the stairs and ran over to the banister and said “Hi kitty!” while she waived.  Best Valentine’s Day gift ever!  […]
