So Good At Life

“Helping families find joy and creativity in everyday life — through simple adventures, cooking, crafting, entertaining, and real-life inspiration.”

Hi There! I'm Missy, the Mom behind So Good At Life, Inc. I believe that there is magic in the mundane and that we can easily create our own special, joyful moments through adventuring together as a family!

From cooking together at home to exploring the wonders of mud kitchen play, holiday entertaining, and discovering ways to incorporate math and science into our real life, there is so much joy to be found in everyday life. I know that it's not always easy in this crazy, busy world, but I believe that beauty and wonder surround us if we simply take a moment to see and feel it.

I'm the type of gal who cannot sit still and is always coming up with creative ideas. Some are epic fails, others not so bad, and many might be considered hairbrained! ... but we have a lot of fun along the way! Creativity feeds my soul, and I find great joy in sharing my inspirations with those I love and care about.

In the modern world of Pinterest successes and fails, To Do lists that seem endless, knowledge overload, and our own sometimes unrealistic expectations, I have found that I am happiest when I collapse onto my pillow at night with a heart full of joy, feeling like I have at least tried my very best to be so good at life — whatever that may mean!

My version of what that actually means will vary from yours, and it should. For me, it means feeling accomplished in some way each day while also being the best mom I know I can be (my version, nobody else's); a kind wife, daughter, friend, and just a good person; a strong woman; a creative being; and someone who has helped others. I believe that while our life is our own very personal journey, everything we touch along the way will help shape that journey for each of us. I’m also a believer that life is just better when we support and encourage each other rather than judging or comparing.

Everything you will see here is Real. Life. Stuff. While I won’t claim that I created many of the ideas, I can assure you that they all have my authentic spin, and I hope you will feel inspired to add your own twist to a recipe or project! Follow my recipe to a tee, or simply use it as a guide to whip up something different tonight! I can promise you that my posts will not contain stock photos (aside from my affiliate partners*), generic unknown articles, or recipes for princess cakes made by the fairy godmother herself.

My hope is that So Good At Life will INSPIRE you to find the magic and wonder in your own life!
