Ever since I was in high school having nice nails was important to me. Whether it was getting a manicure, doing my nails at home, or something in between, I like to have nice nails! Having longer nails and motherhood don't always mix, though.



If you're a midwesterner, you've probably heard of Hy-Vee! I shared last week on Des Moines Moms Blog the many reasons I love our store! Read it here!

Last Saturday, Russ was on an adventure, so the little two and I cheered on Henry at his soccer game. It was SO windy and cold, but they were all in good spirits. Thank goodness for blankets!


I feel like when people hear buffalo plaid and leopard they think of the red plaid wintery combo. Today I wanted to share a different spin on it!

Not this past week, but the week before, we were just stuck in a rain spurt. It would not stop! This fall, honestly, we have had so much rain so far. One night we decided we just needed to get out, so we took the boys to Target and let the boys each pick something out. They were all excited with their finds. Calvin got a crane truck that didn't make it into the picture.

I'm taking today off! Make sure you stop by Della at Della Devoted, Katie at Cup of Tea,  andTif at Bright on a Budget's blogs to link up and see other great posts!

My smile is important to me. I show it every day in my work as a teacher and my work as a make up distributor. When Smile Brilliant asked me to review their electric toothbrush, I was excited because I am working to focus more on my dental health.



To be honest with you, I don't have the best teeth. Part of that has been due to laziness, and I think part of it to genetics. It also may have to do with the fact that I wasn't a regular to dentist check ups as a child and some of my adult life. In the past year I have been making it a priority to floss daily in addition to my normal tooth brushing routine. I have used electric toothbrushes in the past but wasn't a huge fan because I didn't like the brush it had (you know, the tiny round one), it was loud, and it didn't have any variety in settings.

Enter the Smile Brilliant cariPRO™ Electric Toothbrush! The first thing that excited me about this brush is the type of brush it has. Instead of a tiny round brush, it has a brush that is similar to your traditional toothbrush. The bristles are not too soft, and not too stiff. They have angles that reach between teeth for optimal cleaning. I also appreciate that the replacement heads are reasonably priced.



Another great thing about the Smile Brilliant cariPRO™ Electric Toothbrush is that it has five different settings based on your dental needs. My favorites were the Clean and Massage settings. They have different vibrations at each setting specific to that settings' needs. I also like that the brush has a timer that pauses letting you know to move to a different region of your mouth. I definitely know I wasn't brushing my teeth as long as I should have been with my manual toothbrush! My teeth feel so clean after using

We had a busy Saturday last weekend and that makes up a good portion of this week's highlights! Henry had a soccer game Saturday morning. Russ had a wedding all day, so it was just the boys and me, but Russ's dad came to watch too. It was a chilly game but the boys enjoyed watching. I got this cute picture of them in the wagon and then they ran around most of the rest of the game.



I thought it'd be fun to share some things I've been loving lately. From food to bath bombs to making my life better, read on!




I'm over at Des Moines Moms Blog today sharing some ways to style colored jeans for fall!
