Smoothies are such a great way to make sure your little ones are getting enough fruits and veggies in their diet. It took some trial and error to find something our kids actually like (and ask for!), but we finally found the right recipe and it has stuck. This is now a staple in our morning routine and I couldn't be happier because it's super easy to make and packed with vitamins and tons of antioxidants that support their little immune systems. Ingredients A cup of orange juice Two ...

Our New Guest Room Bedding
We're on full throttle #springcleaning mode here at the Joy house! One of the rooms I desperately needed to give some TLC to was our guest room. The downstairs took up so much of our time and effort this year and now that that's officially done, I can shift my focus on other areas of our home and getting this room ready for guests was top on my list! We have quite a bit of family that lives out of town, as well as friends, and there is nothing we love more than a slumber party. ...

Sunglasses | Top | Bag| Jeans We’re actually flying back from Florida right now and both kids are magically occupied so I figured now would be a great time to write about all of our favorite spots in the Jupiter/Tequesta area! It’s such an amazing place to visit for families and we’re so grateful my parents chose this as their “snow bird” destination. We’ve been coming here for over 20 years, and fun fact, Brian and I actually got married here at the Jupiter Beach Resort and Spa! Before we ...
Quinoa, Tomato and Feta Salad
Guys. I LOVE a good salad, seriously love. The more I can add, the better. The other night we had a "fridge clean-out" salad and it came out so delicious I knew I had to share it with you. Here is what you're going to need: 1 cup of quinoa (cook according to directions on package) baby romaine lettuce (this is my favorite lettuce, it's softer and tastes better than Spring Mix IMO) grape tomatoes persian cucumber hard-boiled eggs feta cheese For the Dressing: juice ...
Homemade Rustic Bread – Crunchy Crust, Airy Center
GUYS! Found a new hobby, baking homemade bread. I've probably made twenty batches of bread over the past two weeks looking for one that was JUST right and I finally nailed it. I love when bread has a really rustic, crunchy crust but the inside needs to be super light and airy. Is there anything better than getting warm bread straight out of the oven with a little butter on top?? NO. Actually olive oil is pretty good, too, and even jam. Let's rephrase that, what's not good on bread?? For ...
