I’m partnering with Walmart for the best time of the year! Back to school is a super excited time for families so it must be done in style! I’m breaking down the must haves for a successful start to a fashion forward school year.

Keep it fun

I mixed prints and patterns by getting a 2 pack of tops that came with a striped tee shirt and button down. 

Light Comfy Sneakers

No need to break the bank for shoes for our kids! Grant loved how light these shoes are. The gray tones will look a amazing with so many different looks. 

Get a Fun Backpack

When Grant saw this fun backpack he immediately ran to it. Kids know what they like so let them choose it!

Style Cool with Shorts

As long as it’s warm try out a easy pair of shorts for the beginning of the school year.

Grab Something for Yourself

I know it’s a shopping time for kids but take a moment to get something for yourself. I picked up the cool yellow dress while I was school shopping and it only too a moment.

Have a great school year!!

Here are some of my other favorites too!

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Stressballs at Walmart. This shop has been compensated by P&G and its advertiser. The opinions and text are all mine.

Rest and recovery is so important to our overall health so naturally we all want to stress less and live more! When you are awake you want to have energy and be able to have focus during your day. It’s no shock that because of my busy schedule at times it is hard to be energetic during the day. In the same light, it can be rough making sure that I get enough sleep and that I feel rested.

It has been wonderful trying Stressballs because I can pick them up at my local  Walmart or online at www.walmart.com/stressballs. They give me the boost that I need to thrive through out my day and to rest well at night.

Stressballs are drug free and non-habit forming. Stressballs Day helps you focus, destress and re-energize*. It is formulated without caffeine and is naturally energizing with its citrus flavor. It uses ginseng, lemon balm and ashwagandha to give you all the natural herbal perks! Stressballs Night helps you relax, destress and sleep*. It uses lavender, valerian root, lemon balm, chamomile and ashwagandha to help you relax and destress*. When the stresses of the day keep running through your mind it helps your brain and body know it’s time to rest.

Having something natural to help me feel my best is all I can really ask for. The struggle will be to keep these away from my family so that I actually have some for myself. Ha ha! I cannot wait to hear from you after you try Stressballs! Enjoy Color Bees!

Enjoy Color Bees!

Father’s Day is right around the corner, and I want nothing more than to create precious memories for my husband. He is such an amazing dad! I decided to go a different direction this year and skip the gifts. I took Mike to Perry’s Steakhouse to create an experience that he would never forget.

I know how much he loves delicious food, so when I found out that Perry’s had some amazing deals available for this special day I was so happy. We started with the seafood stuffed mushrooms appetizer and mini martini trio that included Lemon Bubbles, Mai Tai and Smoky Rita (sooo tasty!).

After we enjoyed that, we had the three-course pork chop dinner — the Perry’s Sunday Supper Special. It includes a choice of six salads, Perry’s Famous Pork Chop and dessert trio all for $34.95. We paired the Perry’s Reserve Pinot Noir with the pork chop. It was designed and blended specifically to pair with their famous pork chop.

Treating my favorite dad to this Perry’s experience was a hit! I have no doubt that he loved this Father’s Day gift and I’m pretty sure that it is the start of a new tradition.

Tips for pulling off this amazing Father’s Day experience

-Go Early! Perry’s will open at 11am on Father’s Day.

-Perry’s has a Social Hour Monday through Friday from 4 – 7 PM and Sundays from 4 – 9 PM.

They offer 7 bar bites and 7 handcrafted cocktails for $9 each. Social Hour will be available on

Father’s Day.

-Perry’s will offer an off-the-menu 16 oz. Bison Cowboy Chop for $59.95. This rich and savory

entrée is served with browned garlic and a classic chimichurri and It will be available all day.

Surprise the dad in your life with this treat!
