Amazon Underground is the solution to the most frustrating problem moms will face this summer: boredom. If every second of the day isn’t planned with amazing, exciting, over-the-top fun things to do, my kids are bored. Everyday can’t be a Six Flags Over Georgia day. Sometimes I’m tired. Sometimes I need a break from […]
Michelle Obama, Oprah…and Me at the #StateofWomen Summit
Ok. So maybe the title should read Michelle Obama, Oprah, me and several hundred other influential women but that was too long. All of us though will be attending the first ever United State of Women Summit hosted by the White House. Did I mention I’m going to be in the same place as First […]
Free Donuts Today for #NationalDonutDay
I got a surprise delivery today for National Donut Day thanks to my friends at Oshkosh B’Gosh. They said they wanted to do something sweet so they hand-delivered a dozen of the most amazingly perfect donut confections from Bon Glaze in Atlanta. SO GOOD. But that got me thinking. Maybe other people are celebrating National […]
How Do You Make Summer Easy? #teamstriderite
This year, I am all about making summer easy. And I know, technically, it’s not summer yet. But hey, my kids have been out of school for two weeks. Memorial Day has passed. For all intents and purposes, summer is here! We had an amazing first day of summer break at Six Flags Over Georgia, […]
Let’s Make it a Netflix Summer #streamteam
It’s summer vacation (already) at my house and it will be a Netflix summer this year. With four kids home all day, except when I ship them off to camp, I need to use technology to entertain them. Sorry. That might take me off the ‘Best Mom Ever’ pedestal but it’s true. I’ve got blog […]

New Six Flags Over Georgia Rides for 2016
Six Flags Over Georgia rides have become some of the most enticing attractions in the Atlanta area for families. With updates, renovations, and improvements in nearly all areas of the park, the park is truly a destination everyone can enjoy and is worth the admission price (though there are always discounts so definitely look for them […]
Get Ready for a Fútbol Fiesta Atlanta! #ExpresaTuPasion #ATTInfluencer
This weekend in Atlanta, there will be a Fútbol Fiesta going on. No, that’s not a misspelling and no you won’t be seeing any ‘Dirty Birds’ hanging around. This is ‘Fútbol’…what some of you less globally-minded people like to call soccer. Mexico is playing Paraguay at the Georgia Dome Saturday, May 28th and it is […]
Groupon Coupons will Save You Cash
Groupon coupons. Yes. It’s a thing. And since saving money is kind of my thing, I was very interested to learn that Groupon had branched out into the coupon business. I mean, Groupon, the group buying site that discounts everything from summer camps to restaurants to attraction tickets, is already pretty awesome. Then to learn […]
A Lollibop Birthday Party in Atlanta
My 9 year old had a ‘Lollibop’ birthday party this year. That is, she got the extra special with a cherry on top treatment at Lollibop Sweet Shop, one of Atlanta’s newest ice cream parlors and bake shops. For her birthday, she got to feel like a kid in a candy store…literally! We opted for […]
