Can you believe that I have lived in Minnesota all my life and I have never been to a corn maze? I even lived in Shakopee, for a few years, home to one of the best family corn mazes around. And yet, I had never been! Well, this year is the year I am going to one. And I'm bringing Peyton with me, she has never been to one either! Sever's Fall Festival is not your typical maze. Every year they have a theme, this year its Dive Under the Sea. That theme dictates what the maze is going to look ...

With all the hype of this new movie theater being an experience ...
What’s New at Valleyfair for 2018
Growing up, the annual trip to Valleyfair in Shakopee, Minnesota was a day we all looked forward to. Every year there is always something new at Valleyfair.

And every year there is always something new to see and experience. Valleyfair does a great job at keeping the park fresh and fun for all members of the family. This weekend, Peyton ...
A Day of Play with Great Wolf Lodge Minnesota
When I first heard Great Wolf Lodge was coming to Minnesota I'll admit, I was super excited! Great Wolf Lodge is known to have some of the best family fun activities.

They have something for everyone in the family and the one they opened in Minnesota, Great Wolf Lodge Minnesota has some features that other Great Wolf Lodges do not. Peyton and I had the opportunity to bring a friend and check ...
