The danger of doing anything with older kids is that you’re automatically volunteered to do the same things with their younger siblings. It is for this reason that I find myself the leader of both my older daughter’s Cadette Girl Scout troop, and my younger daughter’s Daisy troop. I don’t mind, actually. I find it’s […]
Delicious Cranberry Chocolate Protein Bites

Delicious Citrus Grilled Chicken and the Perfect Summer Meal
I’m so excited that it’s finally getting nice out here. We love to grill, and there’s nothing better than sitting outside at the table, having a nice, leisurely dinner, and relaxing while the kids tear apart the backyard afterward.

This post was sponsored by Blueprint4SummerCO. All opinions are my own. We just returned from Spring Break, and I’m already looking forward to summer.
