August 28, 2015 By Shannah Coe Leave a Comment

By the time my kids get home from school, they are usually starving and immediately start asking for snacks. I try to make sure I have a variety of snacks around the house and always choose things that are pretty easy to take on the go too in case we have to head out immediately for gymnastics practice or some other event. In case you are coming up short on snack ideas as we head into the beginning of the school year, I thought I would share six after school snack ideas that are always at the top of my list.

The Easy Dinner Recipes Meal Plan – Week 1

July 11, 2015 By Allyson Zea 5 Comments

So, it is no secret our life it pretty hectic. We both work full time and have two busy kids. While we may be busy, I totally get that we are not the busiest by far and that so many families are just as busy if not more so. I was talking with a friend recently about how I “do it all” {Confession: I definitely don’t} and one of the most important things in our weekly activities is meal planning. Creating a meal plan helps me in so many ways:
– I spend less time at the store because I have a specific list versus wondering aimlessly
– I spend less time making dinner because I don’t have to do the “what’s for dinner” thing each night
– I spend less money because, again, I have a list and stick to it. No more buying lettuce that never gets used because we might want to make salads one night.

I was talking to some of my other blogger friends and we were all discussing exactly how awesome having a meal plan is each week. So, I teamed up with SIX other bloggers to bring y’all a weekly meal plan that you can gather delicious recipes and major inspiration from. I know when you are busy, sometimes it seems like planning your upcoming meal seems like the last thing you want to do. But, trust me, it is so important!
