It's bumper cars!!! And they are only for the littles. Sorry adults, we don't get to ride these.  All those memories from watching ...

Star Wars Rogue One

I have been waiting for this day for months! We were traveling so much this past fall that I didn't get to see Star Wars Rogue One when it was in theaters, but Peyton did!

But after watching Rogue One I can see how cool they looked in fight scenes so that may have a little to do with it. If you haven't seen Rogue One, let me ...

Hop Into Spring with Sweet Scented Pillow Pets

Cookie Pup Pillow Pet

Peyton has been collecting Pillow Pets for years. When I found out I was pregnant with Peyton I had a hard time thinking of a nursery theme. I was anti-pink and did not want to do anything frilly. So, I decided to go the bug route. That's right, I decorated my newborn daughter's bedroom with bugs. At the time, Pillow Pets had a line of butterfly and ladybug Pillow Pets that were perfect. I bought every single one I could find. And I bought both the regular size Pillow Pets and the small ones. ...
