We’re all guilty of it. We’re at the pool or beach and finally relaxing. Our kids are playing – everyone’s happy and then there we are – back on our phones. Aimlessly scrolling through FB from the pristine white beaches instead of watching our children play in the water. Or even being present. It’s not to make you feel bad, it’s just a sad truth that even myself fall into…. Keep Reading
Are you allergic to running?
I received this product from Moms Meet to use and post my honest opinions. Compensation for this post was provided and this page may contain affiliate links. Allergies are something new I’ve discovered. It started about two years ago when all of a sudden I was having a hard time running and breathing. I felt I was in good shape, so I didn’t understand why I was having such hard breathing… Keep Reading
You need a new outdoor hobby – here’s one for everyone
We may be New York City dwellers, but we are country boys and girls at heart. It’s funny that the older you get, the more you start to embrace your roots. Or maybe it’s just all the concrete, but we find ourselves hanging out in wide open fields, snowy mountains, large lakes and lush forests more and more. And so it says, being outdoors has TONS of benefits, and if you’ve… Keep Reading
The one layer you can’t skip (and probably are) this winter
Don’t’ be SAD. It’s a real thing – and I 100% get it every year. Which is sort of ironic, but I really love winter, or well, snow. I love snow. But we don’t seem to get a lot of that around NYC – just freezing cold temps and winds when you have to walk around outside. That’s definitely sad, especially when the trains aren’t working. So how does one… Keep Reading
You need to book a wintery family vacation ASAP – here’s why
I do it every January. It arrives, it’s cold and we’re cooped up and I wish I had booked snowboarding trips for the winter. When you wait till last minute, usually all the good resorts are booked up (if you’re staying overnight). It’s not easy to remember to book a trip and wax that board of yours in the hot summer months, but ski/board season actually runs October through April… Keep Reading
Get your snowlegs back at Windham Mountain Resort
If you’re anything like me, you gave up a few things when you became a parent – late nights out on the town, heels and sleeping in on weekends. They all say – stay true to yourself! Find time for you! And as much as we all want to believe that and TRY – it’s just not that easy. It only takes five minutes to meditate a day they say,… Keep Reading

When was the last time you tried something new?
“When was the last time you tried something new?” Those were the first and last words I heard before the horns went off and we started our jog into the unknown. And I think it’s the best way to really put into words what it’s like to do a Tough Mudder. You don’t need to be a bodybuilder or marathon runner. You don’t even need to be in good shape….

The best way to enjoy the Winter Games 2018
This is a sponsored post on behalf of our partnernship with Babbleboxx. The Winter Games are so underrated. If you’ve ever gotten on a board or skis and attempted to go down a hill on ice, only to get beat up, take some falls and walk into the lodge utterly exhausted yet on a “snow high,” you can appreciate the art form that these competitions bring to life. Lindsey Vonn is… Keep Reading
Would You Own a Car in NYC?
Buying a car is never easy. It ranks up there as one of the hardest decisions on the market but why? It’s just a vehicle – what makes this buying decision so hard? When I bought my Hummer it was a really fast decision. I was tired of being stuck in snow and wanted the biggest truck I could find that would never get stuck in snow again. Needless to… Keep Reading
