Secret Life of Pets 2 Coming to Theaters June 7th

Peyton at Universal Studios Secret Life of Pets

Remember when Secret Life of Pets hit theaters back in 2016? It instantly became a family favorite for us. We fell in love with Chloe the first time we saw her beautiful, round, grey, tabby catness up on the big screen. The first film was a fun, family film that all ages enjoyed. We watch Max and Duke learn to get along, went on an adventure with the gang and made some new friends like Snowball. Family loves Secret Life of Pets so much that Universal Studios even created a Secret Life of Pets ...

4 Road Trip Essentials

I'm a pretty experienced traveler when it comes to road tripping across the United States with kids. Peyton and I have been doing this since she was born.

Seat Protector Since Peyton was little I have always had a seat protector on the ...

DreamWorks Trolls: The Beat Goes On! Season 6 Premieres April 9th!

Trolls The Beat Goes On Season 4 on Netflix

I remember when the first DreamWorks Trolls movie came out. Peyton instantly fell in love with it.  She even had Poppy headphones for school! It was so cute. Trolls was such a hit with the kids that not only did DreamWorks go on and make another Trolls movie they also turned it into a series! DreamWorks Trolls: The Beat Goes On! can only be seen on Netflix. So, lucky us, we have a Netflix subscription. If you do not have Netflix I highly suggest you look into it. We absolutely love our ...

Spirit Riding Free

Spirit Riding Free is one of Peyton's favorite shows. Last summer, when we took our road trip to Omaha, she made me download the whole season that was just released so she could watch it on the road. She is obsessed with Lucky and Spirit! And I'm ok with that. Spirit Riding Free is one of the most wholesome shows out there today for young children to watch and it's only available on Netflix. I am a fan of Spirit Riding Free because each season teaches important morals and values that I ...
