Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. I love the days of preparing and cooking. I love sitting down for a big meal with our family. I love hearing what everyone is thankful for.

Silverquicken, an Escape Room in a Box

Silverquicken is a monthly subscription box, similar to an escape room, for ages 9-13 that incorporates stories, puzzles, and problem solving. Here is what we thought (via @thesupermomlife)

We are always hunting for fun activities to keep the girls busy. Subscription boxes are a great option because my kids love the anticipation of each box (plus, they love getting mail). I was recently introduced to Silverquicken, a hands-on kit with monthly quests that allow your children to solve puzzles. If your child(ren) love games, analytical thinking, problem-solving, and code-breaking,…

This Halloween, I’m taking it back to my college days. The days when you could walk into my dorm room and find all of the shelves and desks lined with bottles of highlighter fluid which glowed brightly with our two black lights. We had the coolest room in our building (if I do say so myself). Finally, I showed off my glowing bottle skills to my kids while we made a glowing eyeball jar, perfect…

Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind - Is it Worth the Wait?

Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind is the newest roller coaster at Epcot and is known for its long wait times. But is it worth it? Here are @thesupermomlife's thoughts.

My family LOVES a good roller coaster. It’s probably the first and last ride they ask for whenever we go to any theme park. We hadn’t heard much about Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind, the new roller coaster at Epcot, but based on the fact that you can’t just get on a line and wait, we figured it had to be great. This family-thrill attraction features the first-ever reverse launch on a…

Is Disney's Grand Floridian Resort Worth the Money?

We recently splurged on a stay at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort. Are convenience and luxury worth the money? Here are our family thoughts via @thesupermomlife

Since I was a little kid, I’ve always wanted to stay at the Grand Floridian Resort in Walt Disney World. I remember thinking it was the fanciest, most magical hotel in Florida. When I became a Mom, I promised myself we would stay there before our oldest daughter went to college, which comes in the blink of an eye, believe it or not. When I was notified that Disney was offering a special rate…

Must-Have TULA Products

If you're looking for recommendations before you buy TULA skincare products, I'm sharing my six favorite products that I use daily via @thesupermomlife

I have to confess that I haven’t always had a skincare routine. For many years, I washed my face with water and regular soap and had no idea why my skin was so dry. I tried almost every skincare brand on the market before I found TULA. It’s the only brand I’ve stuck with for years. I’ve finally gotten a skincare routine that makes my skin clear, soft, and balanced! I’m excited to share my…

I’ve done it, ladies and gentlemen. I’ve finally created a meal that my entire family will not only eat but will go back for seconds (and sometimes thirds). This fried cabbage with sausage and bacon is so good that it doesn’t need a side dish. I’ve been a smoked sausage fan since I was a kid, but I was trying to find a way to cook it. I love incorporating vegetables as often as possible, and I’m…

School Days Checklist Printable

This printable school day checklist will help your child remember what they have to get done each day. Just download and print via @thesupermomlife

About a week ago, I realized I was repeating the same things to my youngest daughter before and after school. Have you brushed your teeth? Did you do your homework? Did you remember to pack your lunch? If only I took the time to create a school days checklist that she could just look at and check off, it would save us all so much time. That same morning, I had to drive my oldest daughter to high…
