Mother’s Day was this weekend. What did you get mom this year? Every year, I see so many people spend so much money on flowers that will die in a couple of days, chocolates that mom might complain about later on (lol) or something that she will most likely return anyway. Does mom like to [...]
I adore my iPad mini and when I travel, I like to protect it, yet travel in style. I wanted to share some new fun products for the iPad mini, exclusively at Target. Stay tuned for a review on one of these fun styles! X-Doria Announces Target-Exclusive Collection of iPad Mini Cases; Available Now X-Doria, [...]
I never thought I’d use my iPad mini as much as I do. When I travel, it’s in my purse. When I’m out running errands, it’s with me. When I am home lounging with the family, it’s right next to me. I read, browse the internet, play games and even blog from my iPad mini. [...]
I am about to share some information on an upcoming product that has definitely woo’d my mind and peaked my interest. Do you workout? I do and while I track my steps, I would love to be able to track more than just that. How would you like it if a device would be able [...]
For anyone that knows me, knows that I am a huge geek lover. Like…. HUGE. I love testing the newest technology that’s out there to see how it can help out in my daily life, and how it can help in other’s daily lives. Maybe you’re a work at home mom. Maybe you’re a stay [...]
Last summer, I decided to join our local gym. While we have an elliptical and a treadmill here at home, it’s good for the mind and soul to get out and socialize with other people, especially while working out. I’m pretty extremely technical, so when I go to the gym, I have to take my [...]
Does your family have any family traditions? We never really had a lot of traditions when I was growing up, but the one thing that I do remember my granddaddy doing every year to our family. He would send us a Hickory Farms gift basket every year. For more than 60 years Hickory Farms has been a [...]
When I get up and get dressed & ready for the day, I have to confess that I absolutely hate putting on my bra. Sounds funny, doesn’t it? I’ve gotten in to the habit of wearing tanks with the ‘built in bra’ over wearing my $90 bra that I was personally fitted for. It’s pretty [...]
Are you a coffee drinker? We never really have been, or even thought about coffee unless it was as a pick me up on a long road trip. To be honest, since I’ve been married, we have never even owned a coffee pot before recently. I know it sounds weird, doesn’t it? I grew up [...]
We do a lot of traveling. That ranges from solo flights to family trips locally to the zoo, shopping or even out of town family trips to visit family and friends. You don’t have to have a baby to need a ‘diaper bag’. I have always carried a large bag wherever we go just because [...]
I travel a lot… like, a whole lot. A lot is for business, but we also travel a lot as a family. When you live 6 hours away from one part of the family and 14 hours away from the other half of the family, there tends to be a lot of going here and [...]
School is already back in full swing. I remember when we were shopping for back to school needs, the one thing that I like (as a parent) are to look for things that aren’t your typical school items. For the kids’, we like to look for unique items like clothes, shoes and even backpacks. I [...]
I grew up loving princesses, dressing up like them and watching every movie that came out with princesses in them. There’s one that still leaves a mark in my mind and a spot in my heart…. Cinderella. My 5 year old is the same as I was; she dresses up like a princess, is as [...]
My kids are officially back in school and we are already bombarded with the show and tell presentations, as well as keepsakes that the kids make and bring home. How do you preserve some of those fun drawings, or here’s a thought … when your kids swap school pictures with their classmates, what do you [...]
My kids are just like mommy… they love technology. We travel a lot, and the kids love to have things to keep them entertained, but they also love educational tools while on the go and at home. We had the chance to check out the VTech InnoTab 2. We have the first version of the [...]
I travel a lot. OK, so I travel a whooooole lot. I cannot begin to tell you how many suitcases that I have, yet I don’t like any of them. The main reason is because they are too heavy, too bulky, my ‘carry-on’ won’t fit in the overhead bin or they are just plain ugly. [...]
A while back, we reviewed the VTech MobiGo. While we really liked it, there were things that we were hoping to see adjusted in the next revision. Well, we were asked to review the new MobiGo 2 and I am happy to share with you our findings. VTech MobiGo 2 The new MobiGo 2 Touch [...]
In our home, we are all mega music lovers. My son is 7 and has been singing anything and everything that he hears and when we are in the car, he asks me to turn up the volume so he can hear it and sing along. Kam is almost 5 and she has been following [...]
We have been on the go all summer. When we travel, we travel with just about any toy, book and electronic that we can to keep the kids entertained on road trips. While we’ve been reviewing the Motorola xyboard powered by Verizon’s 4G service, we thought we’d download a few things that would allow us [...]

When my kids were little ones in their cribs, I always wished that there was a way that I could keep an eye on them. Now that they are older, there are times that I would like to be in my office, but still be able to keep an eye on them as they play. [...]
I have a confession to make. I absolutely dislike recycling. I know it’s what we need to do to help cut back on trash, as well as to help our planet, but in my house, recycling has always been nothing but a hassle, a huge mess and cluttered up my deck where the kids play [...]
My little ones love their quiet time. We set aside about an hour and a half before bedtime for the kids to watch a movie and tame down for bedtime. We recently were able to trade off quiet time for a family movie night with a new release of Disney’s The Secret Word of Arrietty. [...]
When I bought my iPad 2, I had thought about selling my iPad 1, but then I decided to keep it for the kids to play games on and use the learning apps that I downloaded on for them. With such an expensive piece of electronic, we like to protect it in any way, while [...]
Earlier this month, I received a pair of SKECHERS Stride Running shoes. With my daily workouts, I thought I would start up running. I have never been much of a runner, but I started to get the urge to start something different from my daily elliptical workouts and routines. Women’s SKECHERS Stride Running Shoes Run, [...]
All throughout the year, I like to buy school supplies as I see them on sale, along with some random things that I think would make fun and useful additions to gifts. Being a blogger, I get the pleasure to work with a lot of companies for reviews, but also for donation purposes. With my [...]

My kids, both the boy and the girl, are true fans of the Sumer Hero Squad. Well, let’s rephrase that, they are downright addicts to the Sumer Hero Squad. They play dress-up on a daily basis where they are pretending to be superhero’s, saving the dolls’ lives when they are held captive by the 3 [...]
My almost 7 year old son recently started showing an interest in music. Anytime we are in the car, he asks me to please turn the radio up a little and he starts singing, even if he doesn’t know what song it is. It makes my heart smile to hear him! With this being said, [...]
For anyone that knows me, they know that I love an organized space. This can range anywhere from my kitchen to my bathroom, to the kids school belongings and even in my office. I’ve been getting my office organized since I built it, but in between building my new office, I’ve also been doing some [...]
Lady and the Tramp was first released in 1955. While I wasn’t born yet, I do remember growing up watching this timeless classic. Lady and the Tramp was one of my favorites while I was growing up and I am honored to have my kids grow up with this movie. Lady and the Tramp – [...]
I love for my house to smell good, I think we all do. With the changing of the seasons, I love to have seasonal scents for the holidays that are coming up. In the winter, I love holiday scents. In the summer, I love to open the windows and have a fresh soy candle burning. [...]
I have a laptop and while it has a touch pad for the mouse, I don’t like to use it. In a simple term, it just annoys me. I have to have an actual mouse. I tend to work faster with using a mouse. I had the chance to replace my current mouse with a [...]
While my 6 year old son plays his Nintendo DS, we often tend to forget about the younger crown that also has a love for Nintendo. My kids don’t play their games daily, we do have family time and the kids play their DS while we are on a long road trip. My youngest is [...]

When we bought our home 3 ½ years ago, my first thought since we live in the Midwest was: Since we didn’t have a fireplace, so how would we heat the majority of our home? Sure we have a gas furnace, but when we want to warm the first floor without having to keep the [...]

Last month, I posted about Gallery Direct’s Acrylic Mounted Image. I cannot begin to tell you how much I love this entire concept.
