About Me

Hey there! I’m Jenni – a mid-30s mom who just packed up our whole life from Fort Myers to Tampa (yep, we’re still learning how to navigate the Tampa traffic, but it’s all part of the adventure). My hubby Dave and I are raising two amazing kiddos who keep us laughing, running, and sometimes questioning how we ever thought we’d have time for a quiet moment (spoiler alert: we don’t).

When I’m not chasing after Blanca, our 9-year-old whirlwind, or trying to get Patrick, our 7-year-old, to stop asking “why” for the thousandth time, I’m slinging drinks at a bar. Yep, that’s right – bartender by night. I’ve been in the game for years, and I absolutely love it. There’s something about the hustle, the people, and the creative freedom behind the bar that keeps me on my toes. But once I clock out, it’s all about the fam – and that’s when this blog comes into play.

I get it, mom life is a balancing act. Work, kids, marriage, keeping the house from turning into a disaster zone – it’s a lot! But I’ve learned to embrace the chaos and take the wins (however small) when I can. I started this blog to share the highs and lows of my journey – everything from settling into our new Tampa digs to finding new spots to check out, parenting wins and fails, and, of course, keeping the marriage strong amidst the craziness of family life.

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you find something here that makes you laugh, gives you a new idea, or just lets you know that you’re not alone in the daily grind. Let’s tackle this crazy, beautiful life together!
