  • A Night at Medieval Times

    I am always looking for new and unique experiences to take Peyton to. And when I saw Medieval Times, I knew I wanted to take her! How cool would it be to sit in a castle, watch knights jousting and have dinner? It sounded so cool. The only problem is, there is no castle in… [Continue Reading]

    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. We’d usually go once with family and once with school. I have many fond memories of those trips. Now, that I am a mom, I take Peyton to… [Continue Reading]

  • Explore Bourbon Country

    Yes, you read that right, let’s explore bourbon country! It’s similar to how people explore wine country. They head to a vineyard, sip some wine, enjoy small bites and make a vacation out of it. So why not do that with Bourbon? Kentucky is home to some of the most spectacular Bourbon distillers, you can… [Continue Reading]

  • Toll Roads No Problem with the FastToll App

    Peyton and I are in the Chicago area at least every other month. But I don’t want to invest in an I-Pass because I don’t need it in Minnesota. And Illinois is really the only place that we travel that has toll roads. But stopping at all those toll roads adds on travel time. That’s… [Continue Reading]

  • Crazy Horse

    South Dakota is steeped in history, it’s one of the main reasons I chose to take the kids here for MEA break. After visiting Mount Rushmore  we headed over to Crazy Horse. It’s only about a 15-20 minute drive. Crazy Horse is a privately funded memorial surviving on donations from the public. It’s a shame there is… [Continue Reading]

  • Reptile Gardens: Wild Animal Park

    Peyton loves to go to zoos and it is my goal to take her to as many as I can while she is little. When I heard about the Reptile Gardens: Wild Animal Park I wanted to check it out. At first, I thought it was a zoo full snakes but I was completely wrong.… [Continue Reading]

Dry Your Dishes in Style

Do you do your dished by hand? I do. Well, I do some of my dishes by hand. I wash all of Peyton's Bentgo boxes and snack boxes by hand as well as anything does not come clean in the dishwasher. Before, I used to just lay a towel on the counter and lay them out there. But that doesn't look very nice. Now, I'm drying those dishes in style on my new Bamboo Dish Drying Rack. Besides keeping the dishes off the counter, I feel this helps them dry a little faster. The air can flow all around the ...

Breakfast in Bed? Yes, Please!

Bamboo Handle Tray

I don't get to spend very many mornings in bed past 5 am. So if I have the opportunity to have breakfast in bed I am all for it! Having this bamboo breakfast try makes it easier to get out of bed, make breakfast and then head back to bed to enjoy it. I'm still trying to convince Peyton to make me breakfast but that is not working out so well. So until I can convince her I guess I'll have to make it myself. What's so great about this bamboo breakfast try is the side rails and handles. The ...

Bring Home the Ant-Man and the Wasp Today

Ant Man and the Wasp

Oh, the day has finally arrived! Ant-Man and the Wasp is available on Blu-Ray, DVD and digital!!! Before I took Peyton to see Ant-Man and the Wasp I made her wage the Marvel movies in order so she could get the full picture of what was going on. And let me tell you, it made things make a lot more sense watching one movie after another! Plus, we also got to see all the movies again and to see how they fit into each other is really quite amazing. Because they are several months or some even years ...

Start Your Day with a Trick or Treat!

Trick or Treat K Cups Java Factory Roasters

It's October! I'm sure you are all fully aware of that by now. But did you know October is one of my favorite months of the year? Well, it is! I love fall in Minnesota. It's crisp air with beautiful leaves on the trees and in the yards. It's the perfect time of year to play outside with your little ones until their cheeks are rosy and then come in inside and enjoy a warm beverage.  And there's also Halloween y'all! I love seeing all the little ones dressed up trick or treating their way through ...

Come and Get Your Pink Pumpkin!

Pink Pumpkin K Cups

It's back! It's that time of year. Fall is in the air! At least here in Minnesota, it feels like it.  The weather is cooler and the leaves are starting to turn. I have a feeling it's going to be an early winter. And the key indicator that fall is here, Pink Pumpkin is available! That's right, it only comes ones a year and they only make so many so be sure to grab a case or two or six of Pink Pumpkin K cups before the sellout. Because once they are gone you won't be able to order them again until ...

Can a Dealership Do an Oil Change?

Can the car dealership I bought my car at do my oil changes? Yes, yes it can! Most likely, the dealership you bought your vehicle at can do all your routine maintenance as well as repairs. Did you know they can even change your tires? They can. And they carry the tires that are suggested by the manufacturer for your vehicle. There are many benefits to seeing one service station for all your cars needs. I do it for my vehicle. Where I bought it, is where I get all my service work done. Did you ...
