November 27, 2017 By LaVonne

My kids had the entire week off for Thanksgiving Break. We had a lot of game nights, movie nights, and tried new crock pot meals for dinner. I'm not going to lie though, by Monday morning at 10:00 am they both told me they were bored. Of course... One of the nights we spent together having Eggnog Floats and playing games. That Christmas family night was a hit with the whole family. I'll be honest, I am not an eggnog fan, but my hubby and daughter are. They hadn't had an eggnog float before, and … [Read more...]

Parents: Support Your Young Athletes

March 22, 2016 By LaVonne

This is a sponsored post for SheSpeaks/POWERADE. At four, she wanted to be a ballerina. I signed her up for a six week summer course at the local dance studio. She still talks about that experience. When she liked soccer, I let her join our local soccer team. She even went to soccer camp that summer. When she liked tennis, we took her down to our community tennis courts, Dora the Explorer racket in hand, and played together. She even did tennis camp that summer. When she wanted to learn … [Read more...]

Blackberries and strawberries are both rich in antioxidants, and a good source of dietary fiber. Together these berries make a great blackberry smoothie recipe that is delicious and nutritious.

Iced Coffee at Home the Easy Way!

August 6, 2015 By LaVonne

I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for Folgers. I received a promotional item to thank me for my participation. Our summer has been filled with adventures! I've appreciated the family fun we've enjoyed. We've had record heat here in Western Washington and our family has enjoyed many days in the 80s. Honestly, we have taken advantage of this hot weather and spent a lot of time outdoors. August will be ending soon, which means back to school! Any … [Read more...]
