#ad Alright moms, let’s talk about our favorite time of the day: after school. Oh the chaos and craziness! We all need a little fortifying before the kids come crashing through the door. An hour or so before the kids come home, brew up a cup of your favorite @folgers coffee. My favorite blend is Columbian. Make yourself a little treat like our scotcheroo bars (recipe on the blog). They are no bake and super easy to make. Then enjoy a few minutes of peace and quiet before the afternoon begins. What’s your favorite complement to your afternoon cup of Folgers coffee?

#ad How's the start of 2019 been for you? January is always a great month to hit the "reset" button on life. Look at your kids' schedules - is it time to cut back or add on? How about teaching them a new skill like making their own breakfast? General Mills new cereal, Chocolate Toast Crunch, is one of our family's new favorites for breakfast. The kids are happy to pour their own bowl and even clean up their dishes when they're finished eating. #NewYearNewFlavors

#ad Five years ago this month we added this cutie to our family! We were first time dog owners and let's just say that there was a steep learning curve when it came to taking care of Ginger. Adding a new furry family member can be stressful so on the blog we're sharing some tips on how to make it easier. See how you can use a @lorex.technology wireless camera system to not only keep an eye on your pet, but also talk to them while you're away.

#Sponsored: Need an easy idea for your Big Game party @samsclub Take ‘n Bake Pizzas will feed a crowd and they come unsliced. After baking, cut the pizza into squares! It'll feed more people and be easier to eat. This trick is also great for feeding kids. While you're at Sam's Club, grab some Parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes for topping the pizza, too. Don't forget to use the Scan & Go app to make your trip quick and easy! #jointheclub #samsclub

It's hard to imagine that this gorgeous place is under snow and ice right now. My kids visit @puremichigan every summer to visit their aunt (my sister @KarinBeery). One of their favorite places to visit is @mackinacisle. They love biking around the island. We're sharing Karin's tips for visiting Mackinac Island (in one day) with kids on the blog. She's been there 3 times with 2-3 kids - solo! She'll get you ready for a quick trip to this American jewel. #MyMackinac
