Brilliant Bogg Bags…Filled With Function and Fashion

Published on by noteworthymommy1 Comment

I have never been first to get in front of the newest fashion trend but this time I jumped on the Bogg Bag bandwagon and have sported one of these amazing bags all summer!

I was first introduced to the Bogg Bag phenomena in early June when I trained teachers in the south…South Carolina and Alabama to be exact. Every other teacher walked into my sessions sporting a Bogg Bag or a similar Simply Southern bag! It was literally a Bogg Bag takeover!


It’s easy to see why people are crazy about these bags. Thoughtfully made from easy-to-clean, lightweight EVA foam (think Croc material), this do-it-all tote is the perfect companion for fun in the sun. Comfy straps and a generous interior provide easy access to your essentials during a day at the pool, beach, lake, gym, ballpark, or teacher in-service! And the bags come in any color you could possibly dream of, making it easy to sport a bag that matches your favorite team!

I find myself replacing my swim/boat bag at the end of every summer but those days are in the past since the Bogg Bag! This bag will last forever!

After I convinced the hubs that this was the summer bag for our family of three, we went online to buy one and couldn’t find one anywhere! Disappointed, I accepted the fact that I’d have to wait until their popularity waned. A week later I came home from a work trip and was surprised to find a limited edition patriotic Bogg Bag waiting for me! My amazing hubs came through and gifted me with my very own Bogg Bag to sport during the summer of 2022!

Fifty & Fabulous!…50 New Things During My 50th Year

Published on by noteworthymommy5 Comments

On Christmas Day, December 25, 2021, I turned 50! Although I had some small celebrations with family and friends around my actual birthday, I chose to celebrate my BIG 50 for an entire year! If Walt Disney World can do it, why can’t I? During my 50th year I am going to do 50 things I have never done before. Some things will be small like reading a book I have never read, seeing a movie I’ve never seen or eating a new food. Others may be a bit more complex like trying a new hobby, experiencing a new activity or traveling to an unseen destination. Throughout the year I will challenge myself by participating in activities that force me to reach outside of my comfort zone. This will be a year filled with learning and discovery! I hope to include family and friends on some of my adventures, so if you have suggestions to add to my list please comment below. I’ll be documenting my “50 new things during my 50th year” on Noteworthy Mommy so make sure to check back often to keep up with my adventures. I look forward to experiencing 50 new things this year!
