Hi, my name is Laura and I’m an active woman, wife, mother, and dog mom. I grew up on a farm in the Midwest and now live in the suburbs of a metropolitan city. The roots of my upbringing are planted deep and have shaped the woman I am today. As a result, I strive to live an active life filled with gratitude and love.
I started this blog to share my knowledge of simple recipes to nourish your family, ways to stay active and healthy, and general tips to streamline a busy life. My goal is to build a supportive and inspiring community of like-minded women. In this way we can learn from each other and share our experiences along the way.
I strongly believe in the old saying of all things in moderation. I practice this in the way that I eat, exercise, and manage family life. It is important to strive for balance between external demands while also fueling internal joy. Additionally, it is equally important to cherish the present moment. Thus, each day I have the opportunity to choose gratitude for the multitude of blessing in my life.
Vacations, nights out, or other exciting events do not compile the majority of my life. All of the ordinary everyday experiences, such as hugging my child in the morning, laughing with friends over lunch, or cuddling my spouse after a long day, create a beautiful life. And if I can find contentment in the ordinary, then my life will be extraordinary.
So in essence, I hope you find inspiration to fuel a life of balance and meaning. I look forward to building camaraderie and community along the way.
Thanks for stopping by !
