We are the luckiest girls in the world to have each other as sisters, and even more lucky to be best friends! We were born and raised in Mesa, Arizona, where we both still live with our families. We share several passions including being moms, shopping (mostly at Target of course), sports, singing, and trying to make each other laugh as much as possible. Living only miles away from each other, it is rare to go more than 1-2 days without one of us inviting ourselves over to the other’s house.
While we have a lot of similar passions, our different personalities are what make this blog so relatable to moms everywhere. If you’re a super organized mom with a clean house, an eye for fashion, and a passion for working out, then you and Megan would get along nicely. However, if you are obsessed with the outdoors, have a passion for reading, love to cook, and are fluent in sarcasm, then Ashlyn may be your girl. But if you’re a mom getting through these days one Dr. Pepper at a time, then join us in trying to figure out this thing called life. We’ll share with you the exciting highs of being a mom, and try to laugh our way through the lows together. So follow along for your dose of everything related to the name we hear 250 times a day…MOM!
Megan Ghormley
Megan graduated in 2011 from Arizona State University with a B.S. in Kinesiology and a minor in Health and Wellness. She worked as a legal assistant for 11 years before she started her own tumbling business. She now coaches high school cheerleading and tumbling for all ages. She loves her business because it allows her to be present with her children while still being able to do what she loves.
Megan met her husband at the lake with friends. They dated off and on for a couple of years and have now been happily married for almost eight years. They have two beautiful children, a six year old daughter and a four year old son. As a family they enjoy playing games, watching movies and doing ALL sports. They enjoy spending time at the beach and their absolute favorite place is Disneyland. They are huge Avengers fans and have just completed the entire series for the third time. Megan’s hobbies include coaching, shopping and makeup, but mostly she enjoys watching her kids in their many activities.
Ashlyn Leyba
Ashlyn graduated from Arizona State University in 2016 with a BA in English Literature. She then took a position as a middle school Language Arts teacher, where she would teach for 2 years before leaving the classroom to be a stay-at-home mom. A month after her daughter was born Ashlyn launched Amplified Social Marketing, her social media marketing business. She has since hired four other stay-at-home moms to help with the day to day operations of the business.
Ashlyn and her husband met while serving missions for their church in Vancouver, Canada. Married for almost five years, they now have an energetic two year old daughter who they are constantly trying to keep up with. Since learning Spanish in college, Ashlyn is now raising her daughter bilingual. When they have some downtime, Ashlyn and her family enjoy mountain biking, camping, DIY house projects, and taking spontaneous adventures.
