    The Peanuts Movie Brings Back Memories

    November 10, 2015 /

    Ever since I’ve seen a preview for The Peanuts movie at a Knott’s Berry Farm event last year, I have been on the edge of my seat waiting to see this movie.  I absolutely LOVE the entire crew and use to carry around a stuffed Snoopy as a kid.   Because of my fascination with all things Peanuts,  I’ve interviewed and featured Charles M. Schulz wife and his son Craig (who shared with me that he was the inspiration for Pigpen – shhh!). He shared this with me after I told him our (secret) nickname for my daughter is Pigpen.  At pickup at school she usually looks like she rolled around in the dirt…

    Prana Clothing Provides the Freedom to #JustBeYou

    November 9, 2015 /

    Since before the dawn of time, moms have enjoyed their athletic wear.  Sounds like the opening of a rather interesting story.  I’m kidding, but truthfully, on those days you just don’t have time to get dressed up or feel like it,  there is nothing better than a comfortable but stylish outfit.  I have tried so many different athletic brands over the years and the one I keep coming back to is Prana. Prana offers clothing that is comfortable for any type of lifestyle and activity. I really like the sweaters they offer and wore my last one until it was a ball of yarn.  You could say it was a very…

    Alice Through the Looking Glass Reunites Cast

    November 9, 2015 /

    Growing up, Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland was one of my favorite stories as it really stretches your imagination.  Alice falling down the rabbit hole, shrinking and then growing after drinking a bottle of who-knows-what that was labeled drink me, are just some of the fantastical visuals we enjoy in Alice in Wonderland.  It is a story and classic movie that really opens up worlds of possibilities! I was so happy to see Tim Burton create a whimsical and other-worldly Alice in Wonderland movie a few years back.  Have you seen this movie yet?  I think it is best for tweens on up as there can be some scary parts for the littles.…

    The Happy Traveler’s Secret Weapon – A Smile

    November 7, 2015 /

      If I could give one piece of advice to everyone who travels or dreams of venturing off to foreign lands, it would be – REMEMBER TO SMILE!! My family has found smiling to be the key factor to our incredible travel adventures. A sincere smile combined with a kind, “Hello” will create an environment ready for a positive experience! I am currently writing this post from the gorgeous Red Sea in Egypt, a country my kids now consider one of their world homes. My family has spent the past month exploring many sights and cities in this fascinating country and have loved every minute of it! Although sights like…

    Tips for Raising a Good Dog

    November 6, 2015 /

    I’ve mentioned that I grew up with pets my whole life.  There were always a few cats and dogs, with a couple goldfish around the house and one year we had around 15 animals in our home.  Yikes right?!  Our Standard Poodle, Heidi, had some puppies so our house was pretty hectic.  But I wouldn’t change any of that chaos as to this day I adore my furry family and really do look at them as part of our family. But just like raising good kids, we need to make sure we take the time to teach our pets, especially dogs, to be a good family member.  I have studied dog trainer…
