Take the AquaBall Pledge, Cut the Sugar this Summer PLUS Giveaways! #AquaBallPledge (ad) #aquaballmoms

This is a sponsored post. #AquaBallMoms Summer is here! We have a couple of days left of school and I thought this day would never come. Where is this heatwave coming from? Today we went on a field trip to the bowling alley. Although it was a mile walk there, it only took about 30-40 minutes, and I must say, I was very proud as an AquaBall Mom to supply a couple of cases to the classroom. Not only is AquaBall naturally flavored water, it’s sugar-free and now preservative-free. I felt great keeping the children hydrated in this heat, and I think the parents would appreciate that it’s sugar-free water. … READ MORE >>

3-Step ElevĀte Salads at Costco

This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #ElevateSalads #CollectiveBias   Lately, I needed to change up my routine to get healthier so I started working out with a group of moms with a trainer who is also my sister’s friend. The group is super supportive and even though I am not as strong (and straggle along), I never felt inferior or out of place. Dolly reassured me that it was okay to go at my own pace and listen to my body as long as I don’t quit and keep coming to class. It’s only twice a week in the … READ MORE >>

Personalized Movement Profile™ for Walking and Running Shoes at Endurance House | #EnduranceHouseOC

We’re always on our feet. Do you ever wonder if your shoes fit properly, or better yet, does your feet hurt at the end of the day?

Making Time to Relax at Burke Williams

Some of you know that I recently made the transition to go back to work Full-time. It was scary at first (finding and trusting childcare while adjusting, etc), but now it doesn’t even feel like I ever stopped working. As working parents, when do you ever get a break? You’ll have to teach me how you do it, because I burn out midweek, and I find it nearly impossible to make time for myself. Those who know me know that I love spending Girl-Time at Day Spas. The main difference is Day Spas have a full facility with a lounge (or lounges), showers, Jacuzzi, steam room, and vanity room, etc. whereas the other spas only have treatment rooms. I couldn’t resist Burke Williams invitation to come out and experience their amenities. I finally just did it and made an appointment after work. Have you been to Burke Williams before? If you haven’t, I’ll walk you through it. There are several locations throughout Southern California. (I think I’ve been to four of them between LA and OC). I think Orange is the largest one – aren’t we lucky?
