Buckle Up Baby

admin — Tue, 28 Mar 2017 11:00:01 +0000

Buckle Up Baby, because there is nothing more important to me than the safety, well being and development of my little girl. That is exactly how the Evenflo family feels and what drives them to produce their product. My husband and I did our fair share researching brands and car seats. It’s an important purchase because our girl can use this car seat till at least 4 years of age, which is a LONG time in my book. So after reading the reviews and product details, we decided on the SafeMax All-in-One Car Seat. Why is it called All-in-One? Well because it is. It can be used rear-facing from 4-40 lbs, forward facing from 22-65 lbs all the way to a harnessed booster, 40-120 lbs. They go above and beyond with 2X the federal crash test standard, including rollover-testing and an integrated steel frame. Plus it has temperature-regulating fabric that balances your child’s body temperature with buckle pockets that help protect against hot buckle burns, which is great for the Cali sun. The Spring weather is calling our name, and I’m looking forward to safe travels with my new little family as we venture out and continue to explore this state that I love. […]

On the Go with Lo & Sons

On the go with Lo & Sons … We are always on the go. Sometimes it feels like life just isn’t slowing down. With busy work lives, husbands, pups, family near and far and our attempt at keeping a personal life, it can be a bit exhausting. But hey we will take that as a positive thing as we are very blessed, with no complaints! We were just in need of something stylish and innovative to keep up with our daily lives. We found that in Lo & Sons. Each bag was built to travel light without having to compromise the most important things which are functionality and style. We both loved The Catalina Deluxe style. It really is the ultimate weekender bag with the right amount of compartments to stay organized and sane for a seamless, smart travel! See how we each put these bags to the test.

Clean living with Klean LA

admin — Tue, 20 Oct 2015 11:00:22 +0000

I love coming home from work after a long day to cook an intricate, gourmet meal made only with fresh ingredients that still meets my healthy standards, then enjoying the evening relaxing with my husband as we clean all the pots and pans. Ok, the truth is I would love to eat that gourmet meal and my husband and I do love cooking together, but making this a reality while balancing work, family, the blog and a social life leaves very little time to cook a nice dinner. And no energy to clean up. I can’t even seem to find the time to plan a meal, let alone cook it. I doubt that I’m the only one in this boat. We live in a fast passed society with deadlines and demands. The reality is, cooking a big meal is time intensive and time is precious. Everything has a trade off and convenience usually means heavily processed, packaged, pre-made meals. You can forget fresh ingredients. That’s what I thought until I stumbled across Klean LA, a premium meal delivery service. They deliver freshly made meals straight to your doorstep specifically with the purpose of weight loss, weight management and nutrition. It […]

Topo Athletics Review Plus Giveaway

admin — Fri, 04 Sep 2015 11:00:51 +0000

We have been sporting around some pretty fun fitness gear lately but haven’t touched upon the most important support system in a good work out … our sneaks! Topo Athletic was kind enough to let us try out their latest master piece which are the Magniflys, and we made sure to put them to good use. Michelle took them on a 7 mile hike in Brentwood, California while Sarah packed them along on her excursions throughout Wyoming. After hours spent running, walking, hiking and everything in between we still felt the energy to keep going thanks to the underfoot cushioning built in. Plenty of room in the toes but still snug on top to hold us in. These well thought out kicks were engineered with the runner in mind, and they hold up to their expectations as we have continued to use them on our daily work out routines and morning runs. Check out the Fli-Lyte here, another favorite of ours, great for runners as well with a fun color combo. Giveaway time! Topo Athletics wants you to try a pair out for yourself! That way you can see with your own two feet how awesome these sneakers are and the support they […]
