I’m looking through my past posts and realizing I haven’t really been including the single most important thing to me- my family! I’m going to try to do better about posting more family pics- although if you follow me on IG, you definitely get your fill 😉
My little girl turned FOUR in February. I can hardly believe it. Not to mention my little guy is 20 months (WHAT?!)!!!! With my first, I always wondered why moms would say “I wish time would just slow down.” I always looked forward to watching Ella hit every new milestone and loved every new stage. But now with Brooklyn? Oh my word- I totally get it!!! I don’t know if it’s because he could (potentially) be our last one, if it’s because he’s mama’s boy, or because I’m realizing that time does just need to really slow down. Either way, I’m trying to soak in every moment of life these days. “The days are long, but the years are short” is really hitting home hard and I don’t ever want to look back and wish I had done things any differently.
I took my little beauty to get her first pedicure on her birthday… we started our date at Starbucks with coffee and hot coco and ended with french fries and milk shakes from McDonalds… I’d say my she had a good day 😉
Every once in a while my hubby and I are able to escape for a few hours… & according to this pic, we sit, enjoy the silence, hot coffee, and… our phones 😉
🙂 But seriously, we (thankfully) are blessed to be surrounded by our family who offers to watch our kiddos so mommy & daddy can get away for a few days. This time we escaped to San Francisco and Monterey/Carmel. It was beautiful, relaxing, and the weather was absolutely amazing. If you ever have the chance to go to The Spanish Bay Inn in Monterey- DO IT! We drove there for the night and relaxed by the fire pits outside overlooking the ocean. Pure.bliss!
And a few more misc. pics… my new fav dessert- It’s a local place in town that just opened up.. it’s called “The Parlor”… they serve ice cream smashed right in the middle of a donut. Best.thing.ever!

December 30, 2015Hello Web Admin, I noticed that your On-Page SEO is is missing a few factors, for one you do not use all three H tags in your post, also I notice that you are not using bold or italics properly in your SEO optimization. On-Page SEO means more now than ever since the new Google update: Panda. No longer are backlinks and simply pinging or sending out a RSS feed the key to getting Google PageRank or Alexa Rankings, You now NEED On-Page SEO. So what is good On-Page SEO?First your keyword must appear in the title.Then it must appear in the URL.You have to optimize your keyword and make sure that it has a nice keyword density of 3-5% in your article with relevant LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing). Then you should spread all H1,H2,H3 tags in your article.Your Keyword should appear in your first paragraph and in the last sentence of the page. You should have relevant usage of Bold and italics of your keyword.There should be one internal link to a page on your blog and you should have one image with an alt tag that has your keyword….wait there’s even more Now what if i told you there was a simple WordPress plugin that does all the On-Page SEO, and automatically for you? That’s right AUTOMATICALLY, just watch this 4minute video for more information at. Seo Plugin
