Fall 2017’s Bag Trend :: Oversized Totes and Shoulder Bags
Image courtesy of Purse Blog Fall 2017’s Bag Trend :: Oversized Totes and Shoulder Bags What’s your favorite type of bag to carry around? I’ve been a huge fan of totes for a long time because I can just throw all that I need in it. I’ve been trying to be better at keeping it organized, but I love that it gives you the room to pack as much or little as you need. And for moms, that can be anything from diapers to crayons to band-aids. I’ve often laughed at what I find at the bottom of my purse when I remember to clean it out. You know how it is!…

Circus Trix OC Offers An Amazing Indoor Experience
Birthday Celebrations: This past month we hosted a belated birthday party for my daughter.

Date Night Just Got Better with the new app Movies Anywhere!
This weekend we enjoyed a date night with the new app Movies Anywhere for a ‘movie night in’. We decided to try out the movie LIFE which is a Science-fiction thriller directed by Daniel Espinosa.
