Apple Spiced Cake
This post was sponsored post. All opinions are my own. I love to cook and bake for my family! With 6 kids it can be hard to find a treat that everyone likes.

So when I saw this awesome Apple Spiced Cake recipe on the Juicy Juice website I knew I needed to give it a try. I had fun making this insanely delicious and moist cake with my kids. They all got to pitch in and help mom make this…

Coffee Filter Juice Box Turkeys
This is a sponsored post. All opinion and ideas are my own. The past several months I have been insanely sick with my pregnancy. I have been trying to balance being a mom of 5, pregnant, excruciatingly sick and homeschooling all of my kids to boot.

Since my kids LOVE Juicy Juice and go through tons of juice boxes a week. Especially right now with Covid-19 and having all 5 kids at home 24/7 homeschooling, hanging out and being bored out of their minds. I find having easy to grab snacks and treats a good way to help us all keep our sanity and enjoy our time at home a little more. Having all of the kids home has created a…

There is nothing more exciting then waking up to a beautiful snowy landscape and the kids screaming SNOW DAY! As a mom of 5 kiddos, snow days come with pros and cons. Of course I love having my kids home while we enjoy a snuggly day inside watching the snow as it falls. However, with kids ranging in ages 2-15 years old cabin fever becomes a very real thing. One thing I have learned through the years is to keep a few things on hand when I know a snow day may be in the horizon. Half and half, a craft project and some hot cocoa mix are just a…
