Celebrate Spring with FREE Mrs. Meyer’s Seasonal Scents


     Every year, I look forward to the return of spring.

     Spring means finally planting the seeds I ordered this winter, drying linens on the breeze, and baking a pie with the rhubarb that’s popping up in my garden. It also means Mrs. Meyer’s spring scents are here!

     I eagerly wait all winter to see which new scents will come out and for the return of old favorites. This year, the limited-edition spring scents are mint, peony and lilac.

     I’ll tell you more about each scent in a second, but first I want to tell you how you can get your hands on them for FREE. When you place your first order of $20 from Grove Collaborative using this link here, you’ll get this free kit in your choice of scents:

+Free Mrs. Meyer’s Spring hand soap
+Free Mrs. Meyer’s Spring dish soap
+Free Mrs. Meyer’s Spring multi-surface spray
+Grove Collaborative Spring apron (new! Pink linen)
+Free Shipping & 60 Day VIP Trial

Existing customers will receive free Grove walnut scrubber sponges, which are perfect for spring cleaning.  

Mint is Mrs. Meyer’s new scent this year. Like all of Mrs. Meyer’s scents, it has a garden-fresh smell thanks to plant-derived ingredients and essential oils.

     I put the mint multi-surface spray to the test the other night after I made salmon and asparagus for dinner. It gets rid of cooking messes and odors, and smells like a refreshing spring breeze — even though it’s still too chilly to have the windows open!

     Like the multi-surface spray, the dish soap is super effective on tough messes. You only need the tiniest amount, so this bottle will last us well beyond spring. I usually shy away from floral scents because they often smell like perfume, but Mrs. Meyer’s peony smells just like a bouquet of lush blooms.

      Mrs. Meyer’s hand soap has me hooked, so I always have a bottle in our kitchen and bathrooms. The soap is thick and rich, and the pump dispenser is much sturdier than the ones you get at the grocery store. When my husband tried the lilac scent for the first time, he said, “Wow! This smells like lilacs. What is it?” I guess it’s safe to say I’ll be ordering more of this scent!

     One of the things I love most about this Mrs. Meyer’s trio — aside from the lovely scents — is that the bottles come in such cheerful colors. That’s also why I love this blush linen apron. It’s almost too pretty to use, but I’ve been wearing it for cooking and potting plants and it does a great job of keeping my clothes clean.

     That’s exactly the quality I’ve come to expect from Grove Collaborative. They hand-select natural products that really work and deliver them (carbon offset) right to my doorstep, on my schedule. Plus, they have their own line of amazing household products.

      To show you how much you can save by using Grove Collaborative, here’s an example of what your first cart might look like:

+Free Mrs. Meyer’s Spring hand soap – FREE
+Free Mrs. Meyer’s Spring dish soap – FREE
+Free Mrs. Meyer’s Spring multi-surface spray – FREE
+Grove Collaborative Spring apron – FREE
+Arm & Hammer baking soda – $1.59

+Walnut scrubber sponges – $3.95
+Method daily shower spray – $2.99
+Grove Collaborative recycled plastic loofah – $3.95
+Grove Collaborative dish brush – $6.95
+Seventh Generation disinfecting multi-surface wipes – $2.99
Total: $23.91

     When you place your first order of $20 using this link here, you’ll also be signed up for the free 60 day VIP trial. For 60 days, save even more with free shipping, free gifts, price matching, exclusive sales and personal service.

This offer is good until 3/18/2018, but don’t wait! Mrs. Meyer’s mint, lilac, and peony are limited-edition scents, and these kits always disappear fast!

Here’s to 5 New Resolutions (and Getting Up at 5 a.m. Every Morning)

*I’m partnering with Crest to help keep easy resolutions with the launch of their new Crest® Gum Detoxify™ toothpaste.

I know January is a global time of renewal and fresh starts, but this January—with baby #3 only weeks away—I’m feeling more driven than ever. Change is in the air and I need to have a game plan.  Those sleepless nights are a’coming and my attention and energy is soon going to be spread even more thinly. This New Year, my resolutions are centered on my family and my health.

5 Resolutions (and One That’s Going To Sting a Bit)

 

1.Get up every morning at 5am. Yep, that’s the one that’s going to sting, but I know that those few quiet hours before my kids wake up is going to be crucial. From 5am-7am is going to be my time to workout, film my videos, read scriptures, and get ready. Growing up, my dad was a dairy farmer and got up at 4:30 a.m. his entire life. If he can do it…I can do it. It’s practically in my blood, right?

2. Tidy up the house every night instead of waiting until it drives me nuts. I find that the day goes much smoother when it starts and ends with a clean house. The in-between may get crazy, but taking 30 minutes at the end of every single day saves me hours of deep cleaning in the long run. Plus, I’m in a way better mood when the house is clean.

3. Consistent family night. Family night is such a good habit to get into. Once a week, we circle around as a family and have a quick little lesson (attention spans are only so long), play a game, and just enjoy being together. Last year was a good attempt, but this year I want to be more consistent.

4. No TV 1-2 hours before bed. Instead of winding down to the TV, I’d love for my little family to spend that time reading books or playing games together. And we’re going to make sure to say family prayers every night.

5. Go back to counting macros after the baby. It’s not for everyone, but I loved keeping track of macros. It’s a motivating way for me to stay healthy and it helped me lose the baby weight before, so I’m counting on macros and a good exercise routine to help me out again!

Healthy Routines and Your Gums

Speaking of healthy routines, most of us have some type of “be healthier” resolution. One occasionally overlooked aspect of our health is our oral health. Your smile is a huge part of who you are! At the start of this pregnancy, I noticed that my gums felt more tender than usual. That’s why I was so excited to try out the brand new Crest® Gum Detoxify™ toothpaste. It’s a revolutionary new toothpaste specially formulated with Activated Foam technology that reaches below the gum line. Did you know that even the most diligent brushers can’t reach there?

I love the Crest hashtag #ForGumsSake because really, #ForGumsSake, if you aren’t taking care of your gums, you aren’t taking care of you!

I’m impressed w ith how clean and refreshed my whole mouth feels after using Crest® Gum Detoxify™ toothpaste. It gently cools my gums during and after brushing and leaves my gums feeling nice and tingly. It’s actually a foaming and cooling toothpaste that deep cleans my entire mouth. I love the crisp, healthy feel I get after brushing now!

Can we build in #ForGumsSake? Maybe – #ForGumsSake, if you aren’t taking care of your gums, you aren’t taking care of you!

Crest® Gum Detoxify™ toothpaste is available at retailers like Walmart, Target, Kroger, and online starting in early 2018. Swap out your old toothpaste and give it a try!

The key to making a new resolution stick is all about turning it into a routine. Teeth brushing—that’s an easy one. Now waking up at 5:00 a.m. every single morning…that one’s going to be a bit trickier. (Just remember dad on the farm, dad on the farm.)

Here’s to new resolutions and to sticking with them!

12 items from amazon that we should all be thankful for

 

 

 

  1. This brush set is super affordable and works well! With all the makeup brush sets out there that can break the bank, I’d say this is a win!!! 

 

 

2. slipper socks! you can thank me later

 

3. wet brush is one of my favorite things ever!!! this brush will literally keep your hair from having any breakage when you brush it 

4.tinkle razor You know that “peach fuzz” you thought was embarrassing… but waxing and tweezing is just a pain. this will be your best friend. I am definetly thankful for this one. 

 

 

5. A soft plush robe that I live in . I’m usually wearing this well into the day every Saturday 

 

 

6. The best Mascara end of story. It will give your lashes tons of length and volume. If you want super intense length and volume you can use the primer with. but I don’t think its necessary for everyday use. 

 

 

7. The green yoda mask I am known for. its the beset you guys! Bentonite clay is natural and pulls toxins out of things. perfect for clogged or dirty pores on the face but not limited to that. 

 

8. these makeup sponges that aren’t an arm and a leg and applies and blends flawlessly! 

 

 9. This super soft scarf that is equally as adorable and is $12. 

 

10. these sports bras from amazon! they are awesome 

 

11. This self tanner! its the bombbb. I’m especially thankful for this during this time of the year! (wink, wink) 

 

12. Family Pajamas That are 100% cotton <3

Spring Vibes!

Spring Vibes!

Ok guys, as much as I love having the snow covered landscape out my window I am getting a little antsy for spring! Anyone else?? I decided since this snow doesn’t seem to be going anywhere anytime soon then I would create my own spring time with this adorable outfit! This skirt is one of my all time favorites, I love how bright it is and I love how it looks paired with booties and a relaxed fit button down shirt!

Is anyone else antsy for the weather to change and the warmth to come back? I am all about living in the moment but seeing that we are getting hit with more snow than we have ever had over here I am perfectly ok with saying goodbye to winter and hello spring!
