    Fun Summer Ideas for Families-On-The-Go

    June 11, 2017 /

        Summer is here!  We officially kicked off summer break last Friday night with a game of volleyball between some moms at school and our respective kids!  And let me tell you, the moms were pretty darn serious about winning!  It was hysterical! Some of the activities our family enjoys over the summer break include hiking, nature walks, spending time at the pool, trips to the beach, Newport Back Bay, Balboa Island, and mini-day trips.  What are some of the things your family likes to do over the summer? One of the things about parenting that to be honest, did come learned the hard way, was that I need…

    It’s No “Wonder” Why We #ChooseKind

    June 11, 2017 /

    We are so excited as a family to see “Wonder” coming to the big screen this November. My daughter read the book last year and fell in love with it and connected as well with it. She talked about “Wonder” from the time she started until she put it down – and it’s continued on. She even commented on several occasions that they should: “make it a movie”. And voila! Now it’s come to fruition. I’m writing this as a prod to go and see it when it comes out; although before that happens I highly recommend if you haven’t (or even if you have) to read the book [or…

    Five Fun Things to do in Sydney, Australia

    June 10, 2017 /

    Written by Cassidy Murray. Australia always sounded like a mystical and faraway country to me. It wasn’t until I explored it that I realized it is also a fascinating and historic country which I now consider one of my favorite destinations. This April my family and I planned a trip to Australia while we were traveling through Asia and since Oceania always intrigued me, I was so excited when I found out I was finally going to make it to one of my bucket list countries. We planned for 2 weeks in Sydney and left the rest of our trip open knowing we had time to travel the country freely. Here…

    Nutrition :: Eggs offer a powerhouse of nutrition for the entire family

    June 8, 2017 /

    Summer is so close we can taste it! And while “summer school” often gets a bad rap, Nellie’s Free Range Eggs wants parents and kids to get into the kitchen and prepare delicious egg-centric recipes during its own “Nellie’s Summer School” this June.   If you’re not already familiar, Nellie’s is committed to providing better lives for hens, which means better eggs for you and your family! Coming from the first Certified Humane® farm in the country, Nellie’s girls (aka hens) are never caged and have as much, or as little, access to outside as they want.   You can read more about the company, their humane practices and differences…
