The Amazon Kindle Fire HDX Tablet Makes a Perfect Gift
Image courtesy of xda developers Amazon recently released the Kindle Fire HDX 7.0 and 8.9 Tablets and we had a chance to review the new 8.9 tablet and I must say it was love at first sight. There are so many new features on their latest device that really makes it one powerhouse tablet! One of my favorite new additions is the front-facing HD camera. Now I can use it at conferences or when I am out-and-about – I can take pictures or videos and use them in posts or share with friends and family.

Get Away Today Offers Affordable Disneyland Family Travel
Disney On the Brain: This past month has been a whirlwind of all things Disney! My family and I spent four days and three nights at the Disneyland Resort for the Disney Social Media Moms conference where I developed a newfound love for anything Disney. Disneyland really is a top notch family destination and the customer service is just wonderful! We stayed at the Disneyland Resort and I was so impressed with the quality of the food and our room. One of our favorite things in the room (besides the Mickey Mouse lights) was the backboard – when you flip a switch, the board lights up like there is a fireworks…

Spring, ahhh… a fresh start. There is a lighter mood to Spring. We trade in our heavy sweaters for a lighter jacket, our boots for perhaps a sandal.

It can be as small as a new nail polish shade, a new lipstick or changes around your home. There are a few ways that I like to do this. image courtesy of pinterest Brighten Up the Place With Flowers: Nothing says Spring like flowers, right? I love love love flowers in my home and…

Dwell :: Fabulous DIY Laundry Room Ideas
Image courtesy of Pinterest Tis the season for spring cleaning! Spring officially begins March 20th so let’s start decluttering and redecorating now. At least that was my thought process this past weekend as I am ready for the house to get into shape. I wanted to start with our laundry room because I am in there so much. Not sure how we end up with Mount Laundry every week with just four of us (my mother is staying with us at the moment) but we do go through so much laundry. I figured it was time to finish the job I started last year and create a laundry room that…
