I can't believe it's been an entire yet since I hit "publish" on my first ever blog post. I'm not going to try and sugar coat this, that was one of the scariest things I've done. I knew I was opening myself and my life up to judgment and that was terrifying to me. But this year has been amazing. It's been full of highs and lows, accomplishments and failures and a whole lot of learning. I learned more about myself, and what I'm capable of, in the past year than any other time in my ...
A Whole Year
Whole 30 Day 7
It's day 7 of Whole30 in the Ross house and we all haven't killed each other yet, so I'd consider that a win. I will say that I'm a little bored with my lunches, and I'd really love a chocolate chip cookie, but other than that we're holding it down. I will also say the first time I tried (and failed) to do a Whole30 I had horrible headaches and basically wanted to die, hence the failing portion. But this time around, I didn't get any of that, which makes me think maybe I wasn't eating as bad ...

Christmas Traditions with Matilda Jane
Christmas is full of traditions in our family and I love sharing special experiences with the kids. We already have a regular Christmas visit to Phipps Plaza, where we see Santa and ride the Pink Pig. This year, we added another tradition to the list: visiting Santa at Jeff Roffman Photography. But sometimes you just want to stay home and spend time together, and that's what I'm talking about today. One of my favorite traditions with the kids is baking cookies for Santa. We always do a ...
A Day at Town Center at Cobb
It's no secret that I love shopping. I've basically made it my job. So sneaky how I did that, right Nathan?? I grew up going to the mall, specifically Town Center at Cobb in Kennesaw, GA. I remember that was always the place my sister and I went for back to school, Christmas outfits or just anytime we needed new clothes. That tradition of outfitting the family at Town Center at Cobb has continued with my own family now. I can take the kids there and find anything we need for any occasion in ...
Let’s Talk Health
I know it's the holidays and nobody wants to talk about being healthy, but the new year is coming. I know "new year new me" is all people will be talking about. So, I figured why not be proactive, ha! I get asked about my workouts and what I eat probably more than anything. That's weird because I'm not an expert in either of those categories at all -- I'm a fashion blogger. I do love food and working out though, so let's dive in. I've always been a yo-yo dieter. Always. I was one of ...
