Hi!

I'm Alison, a homeschooling mom, lifestyle blogger, yoga instructor, and Long Beach native sharing our family's adventures in Southern California.

This blog has grown right alongside me over the years. What started as a place to share my adventures in fitness, food, and travel has evolved into a space where I document our family's everyday moments from homeschooling and motherhood to family-friendly adventures, local Southern California guides, travel inspiration, and the little things that make this season of life so special.

Whether you're looking for homeschool encouragement, pregnancy and motherhood tips, the best parks and family activities, or ideas for your next getaway, I hope you find something here that inspires you and makes life just a little easier.

Thanks so much for stopping by, I'm so happy you're here!

Feel free to say hello or shoot me a note any time — I love connecting with fellow moms, homeschoolers, and adventure seekers :)

Call Me a Lush

Two words: Lush cosmetics.

Haven't heard of Lush yet? Get ready to become obsessed with this fabulous cosmetic and bath company that makes their products fresh, using safe and organic materials. They are also strong advocates for the prevention of cruelty to animals, especially when it comes to product testing...

As a Lush virgin, I decided to go with their top seller Ocean Salt, a natural sea salt face and body scrub. I've been using it for a week now and it leaves my skin feeling softer than any product I've ever used! My Lush consultant recommended using it 2-3 times a week and in between I've recently started using Neutrogena naturals purifying facial cleanser

Stay tuned for future posts about other Lush products that I become infatuated with.
