Welcome!

I'm Susie, a stay-at-home mom, foul-mouthed wife, world traveler, sucker for fashion, and everything in between!

I'm a Colorado native and currently live in Castle Rock, Co with my husband and two daughters, two cats, and a dog. I created this to reach out to other women like me. I am heavily involved in my kids' elementary and middle school. (I’m the Social Media Director of the PTO, am President of the SAC, and am room mom.) I also enjoy traveling, baking, cooking, and crafting! I live for home decor and go all-out decorating for the holidays. I've been a vegetarian since I was six so I have a ton of recipes to share, tips for hosting parties, travel tips, and fashion finds. I lost my brother to suicide in 2008 which definitely altered the way I live my life in more ways than I imagined it would. Losing him taught me to stop sweating the small stuff and say "fuck off" to anyone or anything that brought negative energy into my life. My aunt would always tell me and my cousin that we "Looked like angels until we opened our mouths." Well, over the years that hasn't changed. So if you are the faint of heart that gasps at an occasional cuss word (okay - a LOT of cuss words) or a makeup free photo, this probably isn't going to be your cup of tea. Otherwise, I encourage you to grab some coffee (preferably in a Rae Dunn mug), sit back, and enjoy the ride!

Susie Lynn No Comments

Easter is only a couple weeks away so it’s time to start shopping for Easter basket goodies! We always do an egg hunt on Easter Sunday with plastic eggs that are usually filled with candies so I tend to go light on the candy and heavier on the toys and activities for the actual basket. […]

Detox Smoothie

Susie Lynn No Comments

I am a sucker for smoothies, especially when I am trying to get in shape. This one came from me attempting to throw together some healthy shit that would fill me up without containing a million calories. The spinach packs in a ton of fiber, magnesium, and folate with just around 7 calories per cup. […]

Susie Lynn No Comments

For those of you who haven’t heard of the Just Between Friends Sale, it’s a fantastic sale where you can sell and buy gently used kids clothing, toys, shoes, baby equipment, and maternity items.
