Disclosure: I received a sample of the product for review purposes. All opinions are my own. It’s no secret that my kids and I are always on the move. We’re either out running errands, going to classes somewhere, or attending appointments. For awhile I was skipping breakfast and it didn’t take long to start noticing the…
Dogs Are More: Love Makes You Family
Glory is more than just a pet, she’s family.

How to Create a Simple Women’s Empowerment Gathering
I want to create a gathering of women in my life who are amazing people with a lot on their plates and remind them how amazing they are and the great things they are doing in the world. I want to empower them to recognize the strengths they have and realize they are using them daily to enhance the lives of everyone around them, especially me.
Creating a Quick and Easy Friends Night In
When my kids were younger I found myself staying in more managing bedtimes, mealtimes, and naptimes. I swore when my kids were older there would be more time for me to spend with my friends. I would make it happen.
Then my kids got older and those bedtimes and naptimes were replaced with playdates, sports, and other activities. Assessing the future was not my strong suit at the time.
I’ve since discovered more creativity is needed to incorporate social time with my own friends that doesn’t revolve around the kids. Sometimes I just need to take off the mom hat for a while.
The best time to sneak in some social time with friends is when the kids are having a sleepover at a friend or relative’s house.
Here’s how I create a fun friends night in that’s quick and easy to put together, even on short notice.
