Secure Your Home with CUJO

CUJO

The reviewer has been compensated in the form product/service for free. It's back to school time and Peyton just got her first computer to help her with homework! But that also means she will on the internet for school and I know she'll be on there playing games. Now, I could change the wi-fi password whenever she is grounded or doesn't do what she is supposed to. But let's be honest, that's a pain. At least I think it is. That's why I'm installing CUJO. When Peyton has had enough screen time ...

Family Game Night: Ninja Squirrels

Ninja Squirrels by Rooster Fin Games

If you are looking to add a new game to your game closet then keep on reading. Tonight we played Ninja Squirrels by Rooster Fin Games and it was a HUGE hit! From little Jamison (4 years old) to my mom (whose age shall remain a mystery) everyone enjoyed themselves.

Family Game Night: Bouncing Bots

Bouncing Bots by Rooster Fin

We are trying out another new game, Bouncing Bots by Rooster Fin. Peyton was pretty excited to get her hands on this one. You get to toss the bots so anything that she can get away with throwing inside the house sounded like a good time to her! Bouncing Bots is geared towards kids 6 years old and up and designed for 1 to 4 players. Inside the box you'll find 2 targets, 8 bouncing bots, and the rules.

Let’s Bring Home the Bacon to Help Support FFA (Future Farmers of America)

Being born and raised in the Midwest I have a special place in my heart for agriculture. I used to spend my summers on my Great Great Great Uncle's farm in Montana. I have so many fond memories of spending the day out on the combine with my uncle while he harvested crops. Or catching fish down at the creek. We would even take trips over to the neighbors to visit their livestock. Now, I live in a suburb with my daughter and we don't have many farms around us. But we do visit the livestock barns ...
