It is getting … Continue reading Labor Day Weekend Stay-Cation at Lake Lanier and Lake Allatoona

Reid has been out of school for almost 6 months. In that time, we have navigated, learned and grown so much as parents and a family.

It is all about finding what works for your lifestyle and … Continue reading Honest Review of Isagenix: Two Years Later
We had a Covid-19 scare last week, Drew was exposed to two colleagues that tested positive (luckily, he was wearing a mask and maintained social distance!). We were on edge and wanted to know how to get tested and how quickly we could get results. Well, it is a lot harder than I thought to … Continue reading Coronavirus Testing in Atlanta, Georgia: Getting a Test for Covid-19
Let me start this by saying this comes from the heart. As I write this I in no way want to offend anyone or seem to be ungrateful. I just feel the need to speak from my heart and the place that I am currently at. My purpose behind this post is that maybe people … Continue reading Navigating Motherhood and Burn Out During Covid-19
We just got back from an amazing night stay at the Inn at the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, North Carolina. We were very hesitant of staying in a hotel given the state of things right now, but decided since we haven't had a night away in 8 months it was worth the risk. I will … Continue reading Anniversary Trip to the Inn at Biltmore Estate in Asheville, North Carolina
