I had the pleasure of seeing Reading Rainbow co-founder LeVar Burton read to my children (and many others) as part of the Disney Social Media Moms conference at Disneyland this Spring. It was so great to see LeVar in person and hear how focused he has been on implementing a love of reading in children. […]
[VIDEO] Win a Baby Bjorn One carrier! ($159 value!)
When I was at the Mom 2.0 conference this past May I met the lovely people from Baby Bjorn. I told them I loved their carrier but my two year old had “aged out” of it. They were quick to give me the new Baby Bjorn One to try out since it is for children […]
How to Train Your Dragon 2 in Theaters TODAY
I had the pleasure of taking my three oldest kids to see a preview screening of How to Train Your Dragon 2 earlier this week at Atlantic Station’s Regal Cinemas. The movie was fast-paced with great 3-D animation that made everything little thing, down to a dragon’s eyelid flutter, seem so real. How to Train […]
#HiltonSandestin is perfect for families…And romance
Disclosure: I received a media rate for accommodations and activities in order to tell you about this resort but that would never sway my opinions.So I did it!

[VIDEO] Southern Airways Express takes the Stress out of Flying
Disclosure: I received complimentary flight to experience Southern Airways. My opinions are my own. Posh. That is the best word I can come up with that defines the experience of flying Southern Airways Express.

LEGOLAND Discovery Center Atlanta: LEGO Ninjago Laser Maze Now Open
Disclosure: I received complimentary tickets to LEGOLAND Discovery Center Atlanta to experience the LEGO Ninjago Laser Maze. All opinions are my own. My kids LOVE LEGOLAND Discovery Center Atlanta. They could spend an entire day in this place (and we have almost done that in the past). There’s so much for them to do. They […]
Birthday Wishes for My Husband
Today is June 1 and it is my husband’s birthday. He doesn’t make a big deal out of his birthday but I do. I don’t say it enough but he is an amazing husband and father. I couldn’t be happier that our paths crossed at our high rise apartment building in Chicago. I am so […]
(VIDEO) Disney’s “Maleficent” is Magnificent
Say it with me: MA-LEF-I-CENT. Get used to saying this title because from early reviews, Disney’s “Maleficent” is going to be on the tips of everyone’s tongues after this weekend. Angelina Jolie seems to be perfectly cast as Maleficent, a fairy from the Sleeping Beauty story. “Maleficent” is in theaters starting today and has […]
At Home, the home decor superstore, $100 giveaway
Disclosure: I received a gift card to facilitate this review but as usual all my opinions are my own. It was Mother’s Day afternoon, I left all my kids with my husband, grabbed a King size pack of M&M’s and told the family I’d see them later. I was headed out to do some shopping! […]
