Five Wedding Day Details You Don't Want To Skip!

March 29, 2020

You’ve got engaged - congratulations!

You now have the mammoth task of planning a wedding in front of you. You and your future spouse are going to be able to tour wedding venues and attend cake tastings, choose outfits and peruse the invitation options, and you have some choices to make. You need to get a great notebook and start making lists - lists are your new best friend!
Your wedding is going to be the event of the year, and if you doubt that now you may as well quit while you’re ahead! Your wedding should be a loving, exciting and beautiful experience, and the best way to ensure that this is the case for you is to ensure that you get every detail just right. The problem is in the detail: there are so many of them, that you’re bound to forget something.
The best thing that you can do here is to make sure that you are ticking off every single job that you need to do that’s wedding related. With that in mind, here are five details that you could accidentally miss out for your wedding day if you’re not careful - and you really don’t want to skip these details!


  1. Something For The Kids. Believe me when I say that if you have children at your wedding, you’re going to want to keep them entertained. Children are an excellent addition to the wedding as they give you a sense of what’s to come, and they’re so cute in floaty dresses and miniature suits. However, bored children? Not so cute! You need to think about entertainment for them at the wedding venue so that you can keep them quiet at crucial moments.
  2. Something To Direct. Nana may still be witty and sharp, but directions really aren’t her forte. So, you need to make sure that your guests - old and young - don’t get lost between your service and your venue. You can stop that from happening by including instructions in the wedding invitations. You can also ensure that they don’t get lost with regular arrows pinned to fences and lamp posts along the route between the ceremony and venue.
  3. Something To Enchant. The entrance of your venue needs to be beautiful. You want the first impression that people have of your wedding to be a positive one, and the best way to make sure that happens is with an enchanting entrance. Think about floral archways or balloon arches. You want to make sure that your wedding venue is beautifully decorated and has everything necessary to welcome people.
  4. Something To Sign. Every wedding needs a guestbook, and yours can be beautifully put together with a little forethought. Think about doing something a bit different with photos to sign or Jenga blocks to leave a message on, and you’ll be the wedding of the year that really stands out!
  5. Something To Play. The venue is booked, and everything is lined up - except the DJ! You need music for your venue, and if you don’t want any of the cheesy hits, you need to make sure that you have either a great DJ or a string band lined up. You have choices - it’s time to make them!

Homeschool Project: True Leaf Market, Salad Seed Starter Kit

This post is sponsored by True Leaf Market.


Hey there friends! I hope you all are doing well or as well as can be expected during these uncertain times. I like many other parents across this great country have recently found themselves playing a new role as I have begun homeschooling my 3 kids. While we are still doing the regular bookwork provided to them by their own line classroom we have also started doing some very fun hands-on activities too. We are so thankful to be working with the fine folks at True leaf Market garden seed packets and sharing our salad growing with you guys!

Our family eats a lot of salads and we love being able to grow our own. It's very satisfying to watch the process from start to finish and seeing our plants change and grow from day to day. The kit we picked is currently available for just $18.89, please know prices are subject to change without notice. Shipping is free on all orders over $45 so make sure to check out all of the other products able to order on the True Leaf Market website.


Start your own salad garden seeds indoors and get a jump on the growing season. Also perfect for transplanting to indoor planters for year-round container gardening. Cultivate your own fresh, lettuce and other salad vegetables and enjoy the fun and benefits of indoor gardening. Seed Starter Kits make fantastic gifts. The Salad Starter Kit includes: Beautiful Giftable Box, trays, humidity dome, seed label sticks, compressed soil pucks (just add water), easy to follow instructions and an assortment of salad garden seeds (enough for multiple plantings).
Our True Leaf Market, Deluxe Salad Seed Starter Kit came with easy to follow directions and everything you need minus a measuring cup and water.

The Deluxe kit we received included the following: Beautiful Giftable Box - 2 Drip Trays - Two 12 Cell Seed Tray - 2 Humidity Domes - Seed Label Sticks - 24 Compressed Soil Pucks (just add water) and an assortment of 12 salad garden seeds (enough for multiple plantings) - Easy to follow instructions
12 SEEDS INCLUDED - Carrot - Scarlet Nantes 5-g, Lettuce, Mixed Greens - Gourmet Mixture 2.5-g, Radish - Cherry Belle 2-g, Tomato - Large Red Cherry 300-mg, Cabbage - Red Acre 4-g, Lettuce, Romaine - Parris Island Cos 2.5-g, Beet - Detroit Dark Red 8-g, Cucumber - Marketmore 76 3-g, Pepper, Sweet - Big Red 300-mg, Tomato - Hamson (DX 52 12) 300-mg, Chives 2-g, Lettuce, Butterhead - Buttercrunch 2.5-g

To start you will need to add the 1 1/2 cups of water to the drip trays then add the growing trays on top. Place a compressed soil puck into each of the growing trays. Wade really enjoyed the compressed soil pucks! It was really neat to watch them expand and grow!


Here he is getting the soil ready to sew his seeds. He is also writing the names of the plants on the seed labeling sticks so we know exactly what is growing in each space.


Make a small hole in the soil and add 3 to 4 seeds soil slot, loosely cover the seeds with a little soil. Place the humidity domes over the top to make your mini greenhouse complete!


Our proud "farmer" Wade! He is so excited to see how this all turns out! We even updated his teachers with our project. Water only when needed by lifting up the grow trays and adding water to the drip trays. You will need to place your mini greenhouse in an area that is between 62-75 degrees Fahrenheit. Since we are already in the '80s in Georgia we placed ours in our mudroom where they will get lots of sunlight and warmth.


 As you can see within just a few days our crops have started to sprout! Once the plants have established more than 2 leaves you are ready to move outdoors!

 We plan on keeping you all updated on our Instagram if you would like to follow along. For more information on True Leaf Market and to stay up to date on specials and promotions make sure to also follow them on  FacebookTwitter, and Instagram.

Pursue Your Health Goals and Actually Stick to Them

March 6, 2020

You are the type of person who decides to make a change to their health, but never actually sticks to it in the long run. If you don’t know why this always happens to you, here is a game-changing piece of advice. You are probably setting unrealistic expectations of yourself and your health. Your body is pretty spectacular, but it can change overnight. You need to be in it for the long haul if you want to upgrade your health, rather than searching for a quick fix. Here are a few ways in which you can pursue your health goals this year and actually stick to them too.

Check-in With Your Current Health and Don’t Set High Expectations

If you want to work on a certain aspect of your health, you need to check in with yourself first of all. If you aren’t feeling your best or you’re struggling with certain elements of your wellbeing you can’t expect there to be a magic cure overnight. Follow up with Rosenfeld lawyers if you think your medication has had a negative impact on your wellbeing. Speak to a doctor about what you could be doing to improve your situation and don’t be too hard on yourself. If you try to set outrageous goals for yourself, you’re only setting yourself up for failure. Be kinder to yourself and you will see higher levels of success.

Move Little and Often

Moving your body little and often will help you to achieve your health goals. This is an easy habit to stick to and can be woven into your everyday routine. Take the stairs instead of the elevator and park your car a few minutes walk away from the entrance of your local store. These simple swaps will make a huge impact on your health over time.

Get an Accountability Buddy

When you have someone who can hold you accountable for your trips to the gym or the lunch you take to work, it becomes so much easier to stick to your health goals. When you’re on this journey alone it can feel like nobody is around to understand your troubles. Confide in a friend who has similar goals to you so that you can team up and make huge changes to your life together. As a pair you are much more likely to succeed with your health goals.

Write Down Your Short and Long Term Goals

You may feel impatient when it comes to reaching your health goals, but you don’t need to be. Remember, good things come to those who wait; this statement couldn’t be more true. Assess your way of thinking, alter your mindset and don’t expect too much from yourself. Be kind to yourself even when you think you’re failing. The chances are that you just need a welcome break rather than working yourself to the bone all the time. You can achieve your long term health goals right now as long as you are patient.

Tips for Cold Weather Vacations

March 3, 2020

I'm a winter lover! That's right, I live in Georgia but I LOVE the cold! Not that I really get to see it that often! So why am I exactly writing a post about "Tips for Cold Weather Vacations", maybe it's just wishful thinking? We are however planning a little family getaway soon and need to be prepared with some warm winter products.



1) Pick the perfect jacket. Winter jackets can be bulky and take up lots of room when packing, especially if it's a family trip. So make sure it's a jacket you really like and that it's comfortable. It also needs to be something that is color friendly and will match all the other clothing items you will be wearing.

2) Boots are a must. I recommend packing boots that grip the ice for safety reasons. They are really helpful when walking on snow or ice and can also help save you from a fall. Cozy Winters is one of our top picks and offers winter products for everyone in your family.

3) Plan to layer your clothing for warmth. This about taking items like hoodies, winter vests, and electric socks. As before make sure these items are comfortable and enjoy wearing.

4) Pack enough clothing for the amount of time you will be there and try not to overpack. You might want to consider seeing if the place you are staying offers laundry service or a place you can wash and dry your own clothing.

Most of all have fun and don't stress. Enjoy your time on this adventure! Take lots of photos, make great memories and bring home a souvenir or 3!
