About Us
Welcome to the What A Good Day blog! We are so happy you are here. The idea for this blog started blossoming during the Covid 19 pandemic. The world had become difficult and confusing overnight. We, all three, began to try to find ways to stay positive, to make life more “normal”, and to find simple things we could do to make every day a good day for ourselves and our families. Through our blog, we hope that you will find and feel the joy that we discovered through positive thinking, self care, cooking, reading, and family fun activities. Stay a while and visit with us. You may find recipes you will love, family activities that make memories, great books to read, ways to care for yourself, and unique ways to celebrate everything. After all, no day should be ordinary!
Our Mission
Our mission is to help our readers create more meaningful and memorable days. Finding joy and celebrating the little things in life are what we all need right now. It is our hope to give you ideas to make every day a good day!

Hey y’all! I’m Jamie. I’m a wife, mommy to three little ones, and a high school English teacher. So many things in life give me joy: great books, good movies, video games, board games, crafts, hiking trails, and new travel spots. I’ve always been big on creating experiences and making memories, and I make it a priority to make every day a great day with my family. I’m a planner, and my years of keeping things orderly while juggling three kids at home along with my hundred or so kids at work have helped me learn to organize or plan just about anything. Nothing makes me happier than planning a great day and then enjoying it with the people I love most. I hope to share with you ideas that may help you discover things to bring you joy, and I hope to give you tools that help you stay organized enough that you can enjoy them!
Hello, I’m Karen! I am a wife, mom of three grown children, Gammie to three little sweethearts, and retired elementary school teacher. I come from a long line of southern women who loved to cook and experiment with recipes. Because of my teaching background, I love providing exciting learning experiences and age appropriate activities for my grandkids to keep them entertained and happy. My wish is to share some delicious recipes, valuable self care ideas, and unique child and family focused experiences which will be a valuable resource to you as you love and care for your family and for yourself.
Hi! I’m Kristin. As I do not have kids of my own, I’ve made it my mission in life to be the “fun” aunt! My specialty lies in party planning. I love to help others create memorable celebrations with minimal stress. Not everyone finds it easy to plan a party or special celebration, so I am here to help take away a lot of the added stress of party planning. Personalizing parties and adding small touches to make everyday occasions exciting is my area of expertise. Celebrating the little things in life is what creates great memories with friend and family. I have lots of ideas to help you make your loved ones feel special! In addition, I am an avid reader. I always have a book recommendation on hand. When I’m not busy reading or planning, I love taking care of my menagerie of rescued pets. The current mix includes a dog, two horses, and three cats.
