Summer Fun :: Family Vacation Tips
Are you planning on taking a family trip this summer? Do the kids love car rides or are they always asking “are we there yet?” Two summers ago we drove up to Tahoe and my daughter wore a shirt that said “Road Trip” and on the back it said “Are We There Yet?” She was a pretty good traveler but I wish that I had this Vacation Journal that my friend Colleen created. I love all the fun activities the kids can do prior to the trip, during the car ride and even after you are back home. Here are some ideas to make your trip enjoyable for all! …

Summer Fun :: Nature Day Camp 101
Summer is here and finding things to do with the kids can be trying sometimes. That is why we are creating a Summer Fun Series where we make suggestions for activities to do with the kids that won’t cost an arm and a leg! Last week we hosted a Nature Day Camp for my daughter and some of her pals. It was a fun day and one that didn’t take a ton of planning and/or money! Stuck On You was kind enough to sponsor this fun day and provided the cool messenger bag, postcards and other goodies for the kids. These bags were perfect on our walks through the park and they used them to store…

Create Lasting Memories with the GoPro HERO + LCD
The reviewer has been compensated in the form of a Best Buy Gift Card and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free. One of my absolute favorite gifts we have received was the GoPro HERO camera from my in-laws a few years back for the holidays. I am not kidding when I say it is one of the best gifts we have received as I love to capture our family’s adventures on film and video. We brought it down to the pool and we have some great videos of my daughter doing flips off the side of the pool (with bated breath from good ‘ol mom) and pretending she is a mermaid underwater. …

The Perfect Gift for Father’s Day!
Last week my daughter’s teacher gave this adorable succulent gift to the volunteer’s that helped out this year. She had all the children sign the glass vase with their names. I thought this would make the perfect Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, Grandparent’s Day and yes, Teacher Appreciation Day gift! For Father’s Day – you can have your kids write Happy Father’s Day and then have them sign it. Or whatever strikes your fancy! A favorite quote perhaps? This gift really touched my heart and I know that I will treasure it always! Right now it is sitting next to my computer. She said she used succulent’s from her mother’s garden and made about 20 of them. Personalized gifts…
