As the holidays wind down, we begin to think of our New Year’s resolutions. Will I work out more? Eat healthier? This year I wanted a resolution that I could actually stick to and one that involved wellness for my entire family. With lives that are always going from one thing to the next, quality time as a family is necessary and seemed like the best resolution for my family in 2018. We wanted to slow down and relish the little moments: warm sun at the park, laughter as we chase each other around, fresh popped popcorn, or snuggling up for family time at home.I knew Marshalls would be the best destination to find surprising and high-quality items to help my family stick to our resolutions for this year.
We enjoy being outdoors and one family must-have is quality active wear. I have two boys and that can be messy at times, so the clothing we purchase needs to be able to stand the test of time (and multiple washes in the laundry). While department stores sell items that cost a pretty penny, I can count on Marshalls for having those exact stylish pieces for a fraction of the price. I visited my local Marshalls looking for outfits for park dates, hikes and everything in between. The winter chill is still in the air, so both of the boys needed jackets that would be functional for playing and not lacking in warmth! I found Uriah an amazing performance jacket that was $19.99 compared to $28; this jacket was fleece lined for extra warmth and Uriah was crazy about the orange detailing throughout. I snagged him a pair of designer jeans for only $12.99 and running shoes on sale for $20 compared to $48. I needed an outfit for Amos and found a cozy black sweat suit for only $9.99, both pieces can be paired together or with other items for different outfit options. While I was browsing the men’s section, I picked up the softest sweatshirt for Nick and then made my way to the women’s active department. I’ve been dying to get my hands on a pair of mesh leggings for a while now and was so surprised to find these designer leggings on sale for only $19.99 compared to $28. I built my look around these cute pants and added a bomber sweatshirt, down-filled vest, and the cutest sparkly tennis shoes I have ever seen in my life.
I felt excited about all my finds and on my way to the register I spotted my favorite childhood board game in a nostalgic tin box. I thought it would be great for indoor family time and act as a décor piece when not in use. I snagged a few of our favorite healthy snacks while in the checkout line and felt like I hit the jackpot as I walked to my car. I scored so many amazing pieces that I couldn’t wait to surprise my boys with.
This year I’m so happy to have chosen a resolution that I will be fun and exciting to keep up with and more importantly, promote physical and mental wellness for my family. Thanks to Marshalls, I’m able to outfit my family with stylish and cozy outfits, keep them healthy with gourmet snacks, and provide countless memories from our family time at home or our adventures throughout northern California.
