Hi guys! Guess what? 2/3 of our little Carr’s just started swim lessons at SafeSplash Natomas. It has been one of the best decisions for our family this year. We’re officially one month in, and watching both of my girls grow in the water has been such a rewarding experience. What makes it even more special is that Ivy and Riley are at completely different swimming levels giving us the best of both worlds. Two Sisters, Two Different Levels of Swim Lessons. One thing I immediately loved about ...
Is Great Wolf Lodge in Manteca Worth It for Families?
Hi guys! To answer the question, Yes! Great Wolf Lodge Manteca is one of our favorite family getaways and a great value for families. With unlimited access to the indoor water park, a ton of free kid activities, delicious dining options, and spacious, convenient rooms, it’s perfect for families of all ages. Our family of five recently made the quick hour-and-a-half drive from home, and I can honestly say the kids had the best time. From our toddler Riley exploring the splash areas, to Aria ...
Happy 8th birthday little blog.
Hi guys! Do you remember what today is? Well, I’m not going to lie.. I totally didn’t. Today is my little blog’s birthday, and we are 8 years old! It’s been so much going on in my life lately that I definitely spaced, (even though I told myself a million times to add to my calendar) which is why it’s 10:59 pm and I was on my way to bed when I suddenly remembered out of the blue, “Sh*t, it’s my blog’s birthday!” Oh lord. It’s okay though.. better late than never. For a second, I thought to ...
36.
Hi guys! Today I am 36 years old. I swore I wouldn’t write a novel but I have a few things to say. This year feels different. It feels sacred. It feels personal. It feels like a renewal that God has been preparing for me long before I ever understood what He was doing. For a long time, I moved through life in survival mode. Loving everybody, showing up for everybody, doing everything I thought I was supposed to do. But somewhere in all that moving, I lost parts of myself. This year, at 36, I ...
Our Rainy Disney Halloween.
Hi guys! We’re back from Disney! And what a trip.. literally! Our trip to Disneyland trip started off a little wild because I accidentally booked us to fly into an airport 45 minutes away from the park! But we rolled with it, hopped in a Lyft straight to our hotel, dropped our bags, changed, and headed right to the park. Lil spooky overview. After waiting in line for an hour (totally worth it!) to take a photo with the iconic Mickey pumpkin, the girls later met Pluto, and something ...
Our Annual Trip to Bishop’s Pumpkin Farm.
Hey guys! Happy fall finally! Last weekend, I packed up the kids and headed out with my bestie and her kiddos for our annual trip to Bishop’s Pumpkin Patch! It’s one of our favorite fall traditions, and every year the kids seem to enjoy it even more. We grabbed the wristbands so the kids could hop on all the rides, and they definitely made the most of it running from one thing to the next with nonstop smiles. We also treated ourselves to some of Bishop’s specialty drinks (always a must!), which ...
