I Love My Erin Condren Life Planner + Plum District Deal This Week!

Last time I checked it was still October, but apparently the holidays have arrived early this year, because this Plum District deal this week from Erin Condren personalized stationery is a rockin’ GIFT!

I was planning to do a post anyway about how much I love my Erin Condren life planner and when the gals at Plum District gave me the heads up that they were running a deal for $25 for $50 worth of Erin Condren stationery products starting today the timing could not have been better!

Click here to buy it (or 3!) Great gifts for the holidays mamas! You want this deal, believe me. And you could get a life planner for the entire year for only $25 with the deal. Can you tell I am excited?!

Bullying: What Every Parent Should Know by Dr. Jerry Weichman

I was fortunate enough to connect with Dr. Jerry Weichman‘s wife through my blog. Seeing that October is National Anti-Bullying Month, and Dr. Jerry Weichman specializes in adolescents, I thought the topic of bullying might be right up his alley. This is a really important topic to me since my daughter just started Kindergarten and we are now in the grade school years. I thought it would be a very powerful post if he could give us expert advice on how we can start educating our children early about what bullies are, what they can do, and what warning signs to look for in our own children. This article is full of valuable information on bullying and what every parent should know.

Ivy Gate Farm for OC Horse Riding Lessons + Training Programs

One of the things I love about my job is the fact that I get to learn about new things all the time. Before this article, I didn’t know one thing about the equestrian world in OC, so when Ivy Gate Farm inquired about becoming a sponsor on Tiny Oranges, I thought what a unique place to be able to share with my readers!

I don’t know about you, but if my child exhibited an interest in horses and I wanted to sign her up for horse riding lessons, I wouldn’t know where to go.

That’s why I am very excited to introduce you to the fabulous Ivy Gate Farm nestled in the foothills of San Juan Capistrano, a family-oriented boutique farm offering riding lessons and training for those with a passion for horses.

I had the opportunity to visit in person last week and I was really looking forward to it because I had never been to a horse stable before…

The OC Mart Mix was one of those OC finds I can’t believe it took me so long to discover. I have driven by the South Coast Collection (affectionately known here in Orange County as SOCO) a million times on the freeway but hadn’t actually gone until a couple weeks ago.

Now that I have explored it firsthand, I am telling everyone you HAVE TO GO!
