Summer Reading: How to Stop the Summer Slide
I am a stickler about reversing the “summer slide”. I want my kids to have tons of fun over the summer traveling and visiting attractions and just being kids, but I also make sure #campmom offers some learning time too. My three older kids all have workbooks they need to complete each day. I also […]
#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.

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.
