Maintaining Body, Mind & Spirit in 2015 – St. Louis Edition

Today I am talking about body, mind, and spirit in St. Louis as part of a collaboration with ALIVE Magazine. All opinions are my own.  #BodyAndMindSTL

Leading a healthy lifestyle has increasingly became more and more important to me over the last year. After having three kids in less than three years, it took over 2 years for me to convince myself I have take time to focus on myself, not just the kids.

LEGO® KidsFest is Coming to St. Louis in March 2015!

I am being provided with complimentary tickets to LEGO® KIDSFEST. All opinions are my own.

Over the last year, my boys have seemed to collect more LEGO bricks than I ever could imagine. Since they are only 3, 4, & 5, I know that collection will continue to grow for years and years to come. I don’t mind though. My husband built a custom table for them to play on and we have plenty of LEGO brick storage.

While the bricks allow for endless creativity and fun, we also use them for adding, color sorting activities, and more.

That’s why I was thrilled with I learned that LEGO KidsFest is FINALLY coming to St. Louis!

A Day at Grant’s Farm in St. Louis, MO

We were provided with vouchers to use during our visit to Grant’s Farm. All opinions are my own.

The summer is a great time to get out and explore family attractions around town. Last year we took our two oldest boys to Grant’s Farm and they really enjoyed it. Last week seemed perfect to take all three of my little adventurers to see what kind of fun we could get into together. Caution: This post is slightly picture-heavy :)

Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse in Downtown St. Louis

This is a sponsored post about Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse. All opinions are my own.

When my husband and I get a chance to have  date night, it always involves a nice dinner, typically at a steakhouse. It’s a good way to wind down, chat, and have some time kid-free. Last week I was invited to Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse in Downtown St. Louis with ALIVE Magazine to sample some delicious food and mingle.

A Family Weekend Getaway at Castle Rock Resort & Waterpark in Branson, MO

We were provided with a two-night stay at Castle Rock Resort & Waterpark in Branson, MO. All opinions are my own. 

Years and years ago, my husband and I loved going on road trips and traveling. Three kids later, those things seemed nearly impossible and honestly, quite intimidating. How could we sanely manage three kids under the age of 4 in unknown territory? How would we survive? However, this year I knew the impossible had to be conquered.

Date Night & the Lighter Fare Menu at Houlihan’s in Creve Coeur, MO

Between this crazy winter weather, multiple sick kids, and countless appointments, the last few weeks have really taken a toll on me. I’ve been exhausted. It is easy to get stressed and lose myself with so much going on. Luckily, last week my husband and I pulled off a weeknight date night to unwind and enjoy some good food.
