    Thanksgiving Books and Recipes to Share with the Kids

    November 15, 2017 /

      Image courtesy of Old Design Shop   It’s almost Thanksgiving! Tis the season to be thankful! It’s always time to be thankful, of course, but I love this time of year because many people take the time to remind themselves and share with others what they are thankful for. This is a time to reconnect with my kids and discuss what we have to be thankful for. Instead of having a sit-down conversation, we share our thoughts while we’re in the kitchen baking and trying new recipes. And we read stories together. Stories that teach us about the challenges of others, the struggles of the past, and joy and…

    9 Bedroom Design Ideas for Gamers

    November 14, 2017 /

        It is that time again to update our soon-to-be teenagers bedroom (we are two years away from that but sometimes feels like she is 11 going on 20!).  She has been asking to paint her bedroom walls a new color for the past year and I think it is time!  She is also quite the gamer these days and we came across some really fun ideas for the bedroom that I wanted to share with you all in case you also are looking to update your child’s room.  Can’t wait to show you the before and after pictures.  No judgment though, as her room has slowly but surely…

    Fall 2017’s Bag Trend :: Oversized Totes and Shoulder Bags

    November 13, 2017 /

    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

    November 6, 2017 /

      Birthday Celebrations: This past month we hosted a belated birthday party for my daughter.  When her birthday came around in July we just had so much going on we didn’t have the time to organize a birthday party for her.  Mind you, we did celebrate with the family, but kids like to invite their friends to celebrate their day.  I discovered Circus Trix OC from another mom blogger and took my daughter and one of her pals there over the fall break and boy did the kids loose their minds! There is SO much for them to do and I love that I can sit upstairs and see them…

    Date Night Just Got Better with the new app Movies Anywhere!

    October 31, 2017 /

      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.  Starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Rebecca Ferguson and Ryan Reynolds, LIFE is a space thriller about the discovery of intelligent alien life. I am a huge fan of anything Sci-fi and this movie doesn’t disappoint!  The ending was so shocking it made me want to see what happened next in this gripping story!  PLEASE make LIFE 2 Mr. Espinosa and Skydance Media!  You might want to check it out if you like this genre.  One of the features I really like…
