How to Keep Your New Car Feeling New when Traveling with Pets

Dog Enjoy Squishy Mats

Last year I bought a new car. Like brand new, less than 100 miles on this baby! I was super excited. But I quickly realized that I have a messy child and 2 large dogs that travel with us often.  Not letting the dogs in the car was not an option. Neither was banning Peyton from being the car. So I had to find some solutions to keep my car looking new while embracing my crazy life. Seat Cover I cannot stress enough how much a full bench, waterproof seat cover has saved my car and Peyton from ...

When we are spending time outside we love to bring them with us but because of the before mentioned predators, we can't safely let our cats sit outside with us.  A hawk or eagle could swoop down and pick up one of the cats with their talons and off they go.  So I've been looking for a solution, one that would ...

Incredibles 2

So you've waited 14 years for this day to arrive. It's finally here!! You can go see Incredibles 2. Well, for some it's been 14 years. For others, it's only been a few years. Those kids born about 6 years ago have not had to wait very long for this day to arrive. While the rest of us, that saw Incredibles back in 2004, have been begging and hoping they would make Incredibles 2.  And they finally did. I was so excited when I heard they were creating Incredibles 2! When I saw it in the Disney ...
