(source, source, source, source) It’s that time of year again, when guests spend more time in our house and memories are made! It can be stressful, but it is also a blessing. It is fun to have the company, but it can also make you feel self conscious about your home and its shortcomings. I...
Recently, my husband and I checked off a major bucket list item – we went on an Alaskan Cruise! I’ve heard for many years how beautiful it is, but there are no words to adequately explain the vastness – the magnificence and beauty of this rugged country! Rather than try and explain it, I figured...
How do we encourage our daughter’s ambitions? In a society that still favors men often in a work force it can be a daunting task. I grew up in a family of educators, my father as a principal/superintendent and my mother as an elementary school teacher. They always encouraged me to achieve but were able...
Here is a list of 25 of our favorite books about the alphabet. These are great books to help your child learn their ABCs in a fun way. These books are all perfect for preschoolers and Kindergarteners, but don’t count the older children out. My boys still love these books even though they are older...
This post brought to you by Campbell’s Soup Company . The content and opinions expressed below are that of My Mommy Style. I don’t know about you, but I am always looking for meals that are quick and easy. With school back in full swing I feel like the hours between school ending and dinner...
Each and every day, there are more and more wonderful ways to treat many of the maladies that affect us in this day and age. One great treatment that has grown a lot of traction lately is that of aromatherapy, which is a wonderful, natural way to deal with several symptoms in our nervous system....
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Nutrimom. All opinions are 100% mine. Nutrition has always been one of my passions. In fact, when I was in college and studying Family and Consumer Sciences I was approached by the Dietetics Director and asked if I would jump ship and become a...
So let’s talk straight. Carrying a baby can stretch things out a bit. Carrying more than one said baby can stretch things out even more. I remember the first time I was recovering from delivery and was ready to go out and about “in the real world” was my first time I purchased SPANX. Because let’s...
Fall is here and I can’t think of a better way to celebrate than eating some pumpkin flavored anything! The trouble is that pumpkin pie can be hard to come by or fill you up with way too many calories to get that pumpkin fix! For a limited time Yoplait is offering seasonal flavors of...
I am admittedly a new runner. I remember a day that I used to adore running, unfortunately that was when I was in the second grade, had no boobs, and could even beat some of the fastest boys in class. Over the years I grew less and less confident in my ability to run. The...

I loved the idea of putting personal photos in the room. I put a small dorm size refrigerator in the closet and stock it with beverages, glasses, fruit, nuts, candy bars etc. I iron the sheets and pillow cases. It adds to that pampered feeling. I also put a serving tray on the bed, they can use it to eat on or a flat surface for letter writing. To me the most important thing is to provide a designated area for your guests. I also use my best china and silverware throughout their visit. No one likes to feel they are an after thought especially when spending time and money to get there. I think I’ve stayed in some of the worst guest bedrooms . For example: 40 year old shag carpet, same sheets on the bed from my last visit a year ago, mattress older than the shag carpet, mismatched furniture pieces that need to be returned to Goodwill. If people would just follow the steps you listed, it would be a huge improvement over the way most people take care of their guests
