Better in Bulk - Family photographer with a large family
Daily thoughts on living with a large family; parenting, recipes, entertainment, photography tips, and family-friendly products.
Note: I received an early copy of The Body Electric by Allie Duzett for review, which is officially released today (May 14, 2013). No compensation was received and all opinions expressed are my own. When I first moved into this area, I met a mother with older kids that I admired. As a young mother [...]
I am a #NintendoEnthused Nintendo brand ambassador and received a Wii U console, games, and everything needed to throw a great Wii U party. No other compensation was received, but affiliate links are used within this post. All thoughts and photos are my own. I am not typically a party-thrower. I love attending parties [...]
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably heard that Iron Man 3 comes to theaters this week (May 3, 2013)! Much to the rest of my family’s disappointment, I headed to an early Iron Man 3 screening last night…alone. I was anticipating enjoying the movie last night, having seen Iron Man 1 and [...]
Reese turned 10 last month. We had to wait for a few weeks after her birthday to have her party, but it was worth the wait. Reese is at such a funny age – that in-between stage where she stops being a little girl and starts becoming a young woman. It’s kind of driving me [...]
When I drove the Mazda5 Grand Touring for the first time, I pulled into the grocery store parking lot and turned to my daughter and commented that the car felt really familiar. A quick text confirmed that my sister owns a Mazda5…so we’ve had plenty of experience piling kids and bags into the back. So [...]
Last August, I was introduced to the new Hyundai Santa Fe Sport in Park City and fell in love driving through the mountains of Utah. Just last month, Hyundai introduced the three-row Santa Fe and invited me to Coronado, California to test drive it all over the San Diego area. I’m trying to figure out [...]
I’d like to say that I’m a woman of many (hidden) talents. Not quite. I’ve always considered myself good at many things and great at only a few. I’m just an ordinary, relatively unexciting girl with few surprises up my sleeve. Maybe that’s why I was attracted to my husband. CandyMan is an extreme – [...]
Every once in a while I get to be a really cool mom – the kind of mom who takes a kid to the movies on a school night (and not just any movie, but a see-it-before-anyone-else screening). I get bonus points when the movie screening is for a highly-anticipated movie like Jack the Giant [...]
I’m one of those women who would never DO anything with my hair if I had a choice. I feel like I’m constantly running around, from one task to the next important task, and the simple act of catching a shower every day can be a challenge. Getting showered, dressed, and made-up is success for [...]
I think everyone has that one spot on their body that they would love to change if they had a chance. Mine is my nose. I always cringed when I catch a glimpse my profile. Logically I know that it isn’t that bad…but emotionally, that bump on my nose bothers me. For others, it may [...]
