I have bravely bared all about motherhood, shared my faith, offered insight about how to achieve a happy marriage and sprinkled my creativity around for the world to see. But now it is time to take a step back and focus on my family.

I'm determined to continue keeping my teeth looking picture-perfect no matter what it takes (unless that means moving away from my completely unwarranted fears about fluoride), which is one of the many reasons I was so happy to try out a new creation from my personal holistic healer Bethanonion.

Christmas is already coming our way! Our family really gets into the true spirit of the season, which is why always splash out on a super special tree (well, many trees) to commemorate the occasion. This year, Greg chose fifteen organic crystal-crusted Frasier firs. (Yes, the crystals are real!)

Jesus is the reason for the season.

I would never buy an item that was on sale. But in my continuing quest to appeal to the "masses", I'm going to pretend that this isn't the case. #MommiesUnite

The day after Thanksgiving is a time for rebirth. Here is how I reset my body and soul.

You are probably wondering why I didn't post yesterday! Well, my lovely husband "surprised" me by "whisking" the family away on a spur-of-the-moment Thanksgiving trip! (In other words, I actually planned it all but am pretending that Greg made this happen, in order to support our online status as a happy aspirational couple!)

Much like pumpkin painting, squash decorating is a very entertaining way to step into the swing of the season.

Holiday snacks don't have to lead to weight gain! Today I'm sharing a fantastically festive recipe I've stolen from my maid Pia. (She's Brazilian. Or maybe Spanish?)

My marriage is fantastic and this isn't at all by accident. Our dynamic focuses on traditional values because we are a faith-centric couple. God blesses those who worship him.

I don't have any definitive proof of this (who has the time?), but I'm pretty sure that the Bible forbids tattoos. So I have no qualms about strongly condemning those who mar the bodies that God gifted them with for the sake of vanity.

I am always inspired by the history of the origins of my type of faith in the United States,which is why we have made it a yearly Thanksgiving tradition for Jostipher, Chamomile, Jaxxxon and Divi to perform a special play for us. (Yes, there are "Indian" costumes with genuine headdresses in the wardrobe, but it's all in good fun....

Thanksgiving is right around the corner and I'm really excited to enjoy a spectacular feast at my parents' autumn estate. I'm switching into the spirit ahead of time, as there are so many holiday traditions I adore.

My strong opinions about medication during labor don't prevent me from feeling free to undergo elective cosmetic procedures after the fact.

Supplements can do so many terrific things! These three are my forever favorites.

While I am not one to allow something like growing a human inside my womb derail my health and fitness goals, I do let loose from time to time. Life is for the living.

Yes, this is yet another way I'm incorporating blue butterfly pea milk into my life!

A well-stocked pantry should be a staple in all homes, without exception.

Butterfly pea milk is just as fantastic as it sounds. I'm happily incorporating it into multiple components of my life.

Aging is terrible (for women, at least). Your looks are paramount to your worth as a wife. What happens if they slip away? You'd be ushering your husband right into another woman's arms and you would be entirely to blame! You can't expect a man to defy "biology" in order to show respect for the commitment he made to you...

I'm just here to remind you that it is okay if you need to cut yourself some slack right now.
