5 Ways to Reduce Stress
May is a monster for me. As a teacher, I start to feel a giant “snow balling” of sorts that takes place as soon as May hits. My personal and work life seem to demand more and more of me and I find myself unhinged a bit. With the end of the school year in June, all loose ends have to be tied up into a perfect bow before summer and I find myself looking at a ton of time consuming tasks that leave me feeling STRESSED.

5 Love Languages: How to Show You Really Care
I can’t believe today marks 6 months of marriage to the man of my dreams. In someways it seems like much longer while on the other hand, I still can’t believe Andrew and I are married!

Unique Valentines Day Gift Ideas
I just realized that this will be Andrew and my 7th Valentine’s Day together. Thinking back to our first V-Day I remember Andrew got me a big box of chocolate and we went out on a date to get Chinese food… with Leah! Hahah okay so maybe not the most romantic Valentine’s Day but it is one of my fondest memories because I was celebrating it with the man I already felt strongly would be my husband. (The fact that he would take me and my twin out to dinner and let us share our twin banter was a sure sign). Now, almost 7 year later we’ve gifted each other chocolate and flowers…
