Oh the weather outside is frightful (not in a stormy Christmas way though).....90 degrees outside but the calendar says it's almost October...and since Mother Nature is so mixed up (Oh right, there is no such things as global warming) what's a mom to do when all she wants is some hot apple cider but it's still iced coffee weather?? No need to buy fall/spring jackets anymore because we go from 30 ...

Disclosure: I was provided with 2 tickets in exchange for promoting this event.

17 No Carve DIY Pumpkin Ideas
With just day left till Halloween I am here thinking about how I haven't bought any pumpkins yet!! I am also the worst pumpkin carver ever!

22 Craft Ideas for Girls
Although summer is in full force and I am loving all the outside play, I still enjoy having time to sit down with my kids and color, cut, paste and create. There is nothing like getting some Elmer's glue stuck to your finger tips and pealing it off. All the memories of Kindergarten come rushing back. As a mom, I am lucky enough to get to experience it all a second time around by doing arts and ...
Backyard Bubbles with Gazillion Bubbles
There are certain toys and activities that always make my kids happy no matter what age they are. Art Supplies and bubbles are two of those. I always know that if I take out brand new markers or a new bottle of bubbles that both kids will immediately ask for it to be theirs and run and play with them. Last night was no different. After having a terrible case of The Mondays at work, I ...

This summer our goal is to get both kids, ages 5 and 3, ...
Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus LEGACY Review

Derek, 5 yrs old, had been to the circus when he was 2 1/2 and for Hayley, 3 yrs. old, this was her first circus. I was a bit nervous about Hayley since she doesn't sit for long periods of time as easily as Derek does. When the show started the kids ...
