Talks about money, whether the topic is earning it, saving
it, or spending it have been in heavy rotation the last couple of weeks here at
our home because oldest has graduated from high school and will be attending a
nearby university in the fall.
The hair we were born with can bring on a complex set of
feelings. We love it or hate it by
turns. Get 5 women or girls in a room and ask them to talk about what they like
or dislike about their hair and you’ve got a fantastic conversation starter. That conversation could last for an hour as
each takes her turn sharing a hair story. Until recently, I hadn’t considered adding
a wig to my hairstyle story, but thanks to today’s sponsor, Divatress, I’ve
learned their products make it easy to change your look and hairstyle without
cutting your hair.

Take a walk through your yard and garden today to see what you can find.
Hello my friends! I've missed you. I took some much needed time off from writing and creating here to get my family and I prepped for summer, which officially starts tonight. Hello summer! Today I'm seeing red, a beautiful true red inspired from crazy good summer fruit like strawberries and watermelon. Take a look at my Color of the month for June inspiration and collab board below.
Please share in comments: Which is your favorite night light?
Max, an all American hero dog is back again to save the day in a new adventure film for the whole family in Max 2: White House Hero. This movie is out on Blu-ray from Warner Bros Home Entertainment on DVD, Blu-ray™ Combo Pack On May 23, 2017 & Digital HD now. I’m excited to be able to share this movie and giveaway with you today thanks to my partnership with TetherGroup and Warner Bros. Home Entertainment.
Please note: Warner Bros. Home Entertainment provided me with a free copy of the Blu-ray I reviewed in this blog post. The opinions I share are my own and no further compensation was given. It is my pleasure to share great movies and giveaways with you.
Our schedules have been fairly non-stop this month with both
of our daughter’s graduating from either middle or high school. When we do get
to spend time together at home, one of our favorite ways to spend family time
is watching movies.
We love watching movies from a variety of genres, everything from Sci-Fi to Disney animations we will watch with an open mind. In my opinion, having an open mind is necessary when reviewing any movie; most especially when the film is a un- rated independent film like Urban Hymn. Thanks to my partnership with Level 33 Entertainment, I received a complimentary early screener copy of Urban Hymn to facilitate today’s review. No further compensation was provided. All opinions are my own.
Spring cleaning
continues this month at Casa Kinsman and while I feel like I’m making headway
in some areas (hello recycling bins
filled to the brim!), I’ve just started on closets. Oh, closet organization, how I avoid you, until now. When my friends
over at Tidy Living ask if I would like to work with them on their May
Madness spring cleaning sale, I
happily said yes because I knew I couldn’t let my closets stay messy. With the
help of two cool clothing accessories I received from today’s sponsor, I was
able to organize the messiest closet in one afternoon. Here’s how I did it.

May is a beautiful month for anyone who loves nature. Flowers are blooming, birds are singing, bees are buzzing and there is greenery everywhere and in a myriad of shades to adore.
I have a fantastic view of my front yard down to our pond from my office chair and I can count at least six different shades of green. It was hard to narrow down a particular shade, but after scanning my photos, I chose Fern Green as my May color of the month.
Mother’s Day is almost here and I just had to share a great
gift idea that I recently discovered while working my other job as an Avon
Representative. I know most of you have heard of this iconic beauty brand, but
do you know the giving side of Avon?
The Avon Foundation for Women
launched its Speak out against Domestic Violence program back in 2004. One
of its main pillars is to fund shelters across the United States that provide safe spaces for women and children in imminent danger where
they can heal emotionally and physically, move toward self-sufficiency, and
learn positive coping skills.

Having pets and treating them like family is fairly common
all across America and yet, our shelters are at capacity year round; especially
no-kill shelters, which is where we adopted both our indoor cats. We love and adore
our fur babies and we couldn’t imagine our lives without them. While we can’t
adopt another animal at this time, we are going to help on national shelter pet
day, which is on Sunday April 30th this year. Here are some ways to help in your community.
Happy Earth Day readers! It’s a grey, semi-rainy day here in
middle Tennessee, but that won’t stop us from doing a few things in our own
piece of good earth. I’m weeding my front flower beds in between rain drops
while enjoying my Primroses and thinking about how best my family can reduce
our footprint for our Earth Day cause this year.
April is the perfect time of year to clean off your deck, porch or patio and take mealtime outside. In the south, the first burst of pollen has subsided, it’s not too hot and the bugs aren’t matching us bite for bite yet, so we call that a win. Today, I want to share how easy Al Fresco dining can be with our sponsor, Good Food Made Simple combined with a healthy dose of spontaneity. There’s a giveaway too!

I adore lilacs of all colors and varieties, but there is just something so nostalgic and perfect about the classic light purple lilac. I'm singing its praises for my April color of the month once more.
