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!

I bought every single one I could find. And I bought both the regular size Pillow Pets and the small ones. ...

Why I’m Going to #LightItUpBlue for Understanding and Acceptance

Since April is World Autism Month, I’ve decided to #LightItUpBlue with Autism Speaks to increase understanding and awareness of autism.
