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.

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 ...

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 ...

And there are two different events that take place - The Great Pumpkin Fest and Valley Scare. Peyton and I took in the Great Pumpkin Fest and are going to share what we thought. So, first off, it's fall people. ...

When Should I Get New Tires for My Car?

When should I get new tires for my car? This is a question I think about every year, usually in the fall. Currently, my lovely Dodge Journey has a little over 30k in miles on it. The tires are the ones I bought the car with, you know, the factory ones that are not supposed to last very long. I swear they all wear out by 35k. So guess what? I'm getting new tires before winter hits. I always take my Journey to the dealership for repairs and maintenance. It's just easier to have it done all in ...

Discover O’Brien’s Public House

O'Brien's Public House

One of my favorite things to do when we travel is trying out new restaurants. New, local restaurants that the locals like to eat at.  Very rarely will you ever see us post about a chain. So this past weekend while we were in Shakopee, Minnesota we tried out O'Brien's Public House. It's located in downtown Shakopee with plenty of parking and easy access to the main roads. When we found out this was where the locals like to eat I knew we had to have dinner there. With one step inside, I could ...
