Our first stop on our road trip was Saint Louis. We originally planned this stop because it was a place for us to just stay the night. We left Des Moines on Friday after Manuel got off work and so it was the furthest that we wanted to drive that day. I have driven through Saint Louis before but never bothered to stop. So, I thought that we would spend a few hours to see a couple of the major attractions. We started the morning off early – with tickets to go up to the top of the Arch at…
The Ultimate Road Trip Plan
Recently Manuel and I went on a massive road trip to explore so many different states and attractions. It honestly was one of the best trips that we have ever taken and even though we spent quite a bit of total time in the car, the locations were spaced out nicely and it never felt like we had to drive too far.

And we were able to shop without having to worry about shipping…
10 Things I Wish I Knew Before Starting a Business
I have a degree in Ag Business but I never set out with the intention of starting a business. In fact, I got my Masters in Human Resources because that is what I thought I wanted to do (I was very wrong).

Looking back over the last couple of years, there are things that I wish I would have been able to tell myself before starting…
Asara Skincare Review
Growing up my Mom always preached the importance of skincare. She made sure that we washed our faces, applied moisturizer and used the right products. While I didn’t quite understand where she was coming from when I was in middle school, I certainly do now. Having products that help make my skin be the best that it can be is really important to me! And I know it’s something that will benefit me now and into the future. However, with so many different products on the market, it certainly can get overwhelming when trying to select a skincare line. I…
LASIK Eye Surgery Review
I got LASIK Eye Surgery to correct my vision. And I have gotten so many questions about the costs, procedure, etc. that I wanted to create a resource on my blog for all of you who are curious. I had heard about LASIK in the past, but I really only thought it was for older people. I didn’t realize that many people in their early 20’s and 30’s were getting it done. Now, that probably seems silly – why would it matter the person’s age? And I am not sure. It is just one of those ideas that I had…
