Spring reset with @raw_generation_juices 🍊🥕🍏

Now is the perfect time for a juice cleanse to feel lighter and have more energy! I’m currently on day 2 of my 5 day juice cleanse with Raw Generation. I love that this cleanse includes cold pressed juices and plant-based smoothies. I’m a busy homeschool mom of two so having the protein smoothies really gives me that boost of energy that I need. Initially, I thought I would get hungry through out the day, but I haven’t! I drink 3 cold-pressed juices and 3 plant-based smoothies per day. So far I’ve lost a couple pounds but most importantly, my body feels refreshed! 

Summer is right around the corner so check out Raw Generation! There are a couple options to choose from the Skinny Clean, Low Sugar* Detox, and the Protein Cleanse. I’ve linked on my @shop.ltk

The weather has been beautiful so that means more family adventures visiting new parks, tennis courts, and nature trails! The Ninja FrostVault Cooler has been a game changer for our outdoor trips! My kids are always asking for snacks and drinks during family outings. The top of the cooler stores cold beverages on ice and there’s a separate bottom compartment perfect for snacks, fruits, and sandwiches. I also love that this cooler has wheels making it so easy to move around! 

Do you have any outdoor trips planned with your family/friends? The Ninja coolers are now available at @Target! I’ve linked everything on my @shop.LTK. #NinjaCooler #TargetPartner #Target @ninjakitchen #liketkit https://liketk.it/5bkgk

Spring Break Fun🌊🌸☀️ We extended our sp Spring Break Fun🌊🌸☀️

We extended our spring break with a trip to Great Wolf Lodge! At the last minute we decided to surprise the kids with a quick trip to their favorite indoor/outdoor water park. Seeing the kids smiles and laughs is my favorite. A highlight of our trip is being able to all get on the big water slide together. God blessed me with the sweetest kids and the best husband. I cherish these family trips so much.

Let’s refresh my daughter’s nail collection! @ellamila has a variety of non-toxic nail polish and nail care products. I love the pretty spring pastel colors and the polish is fast drying!  I’ve been teaching my daughter the importance of taking care of her natural nails. So the Ella + Milla nail care products have been great with adding to a weekly nail care routine. Colors used: Dream and Wings of Dawn with the gel top coat. I finished the manicure with the Lavender cutical oil!

Short Pump Town Center- A Gift Guide

Thank you to Short Pump Town Center for sponsoring this post. As always, all views and recommendations are 100% my own.


Short Pump Town Center has you covered for all your holiday shopping! With over 100+ stores to choose from, there’s something for everyone. Short Pump Town Center is outdoors, so social distancing is extremely easy. Additionally, there are lots of touchless hand sanitizer stations available, and there are signs to remind everyone to stay 6 feet apart. I love that Short Pump Town Center has taken all the necessary steps to help make people feel safe and comfortable! I’m a mom of two children and I always feel very safe anytime I go to Short Pump Town Center. 

One of my favorite parts about Short Pump Town Center is all the holiday decor. All the beautiful decor throughout the town center has a way of bringing you all that holiday joy. We have made it a family tradition to always come to Short Pump Town Center every year to see the big Christmas tree and all the holiday decor. It’s a lot of fun walking around looking at all the holiday decor and drinking our favorite holiday hot chocolate!

Holiday decoration at Short Pump Town Center

As you’re doing your holiday shopping here is a gift guide of some of my favorite stores at Short Pump Town Center!

H&M

H&M is a family favorite. I always buy my husband and kids new winter clothes for Christmas. H&M has been one of my favorite clothing stores for several years. I love how they offer trendy apparel for women, men, teenagers, and children at great prices. H&M is my one-stop-shop for my whole family. I can buy anything from a nice suit for my husband, basic essentials like socks and shirts for my kids, and cute loungewear sets for myself! Here’s some of my favorite gift ideas for clothing essentials from H&M. The Holiday Shop

Pottery Barn Kids

If you’re looking for room inspiration for your kids, you should definitely check out Pottery Barn Kids at Short Pump Town Center. They have beautiful furniture options for girls, boys, and babies. I have a 6 year old daughter and a 2 year old son and they love going into Pottery Barn Kids. A great gift would be this super Plush Personalized Chair. Anything that is personalized is always a great gift for kids. 

Crate and Barrel

This year I have been in the mood to redecor my home. Crate and Barrel is a great store to visit while you’re doing your holiday shopping at Short Pump Town Center! I have a lot of family and friends that love getting gifts for their home. I recently bought my mom this Monogram Mug because she loves collecting mugs. While you’re at Crate and Barrel check out the Coffee Machines which is a great gift idea for those coffee lovers like myself.

Peloton

My husband and I typically always get ourselves a big holiday gift that we can both use. More people are opting to find ways to work out and exercise at home. My husband and I felt like an exercise bike would be a great option for us. Peloton has great exercise equipment with built in workout classes. I am a big fan of Peloton and I love that Short Pump Town Center has the store to test out their bikes and get information. With the new year around the corner, a Peloton Bike is a good investment.

Lush

If you have any friends and/or family that are skincare enthusiasts then you have to stop by Lush. Lush has handmade cosmetics that make you want to always have a spa day at home. Anytime I go to Lush, I always buy their bath bombs and body soaps. Check out some of the Lush Christmas Favorites! All the Lush products would be a great gift for your close friends!

New Store Favorites

Short Pump Town Center has recently added several new stores that I love. Fabletics and The Container Store (right outside of the mall)! Make sure you all stop by those stores for some holiday shopping.


So I hope this gift guide was helpful as you’re doing all your holiday shopping. Short Pump Town Center has something for everyone! For more information visit Short Pump Town Center’s official website!

XO,

Ashley
