If you are not familiar with Maryellen let me tell you a little bit about her. First - She's my favorite! Every time we are at the American Girl store in the Mall of America I must stop and take a look at Maryellen. I have been trying to convince Peyton to chose her for the last 2 years but Peyton keeps choosing the current girl fo the year. Maryellen is part of the Be Forever line so I always let Peyton have the girl of the year since they are only here for a year and the Be Forever line is ...
Get Comfy with PRANA
When I'm not in the office I am all about comfort. I love to wear relaxed fitting pants and loose shirts but I also want to look stylish. Just because you want to dress for comfort does not mean you have to sacrifice style. PRANA gets it, they make comfortable clothes that are functional, fashionable and comfortable. PRANA makes all their clothes with organic cotton. PRANA is part of the sustainable clothes movement. What is that? It means that the farmers and plants are exposed to less or no ...
AXE Body for the Holidays
I have a nephew that is turning the big 10 in a few weeks. As he gets older it is becoming harder to shop for him. Why? Because I can't buy him a remote control car and call it a day. I also want to buy him presents that will benefit him. One thing I will be giving him this year is Axe Body care products. When kids start to hit puberty they need different hygiene products than when they were toddlers. AXE has several lines of body care products that the boys and dads can use. AXE is also ...
Bring Home Pete’s Dragon for the Holidays
Earlier this year I took Peyton to see Pete's Dragon in the theater. It was a pretty emotional film, for both of us. I was concerned this would turn Peyton off but it didn't. Pete's Dragon is full of emotional scenes that engage the audience. Within the first 30 seconds, we were both engrossed in the film. I will admit, the first 10 minutes or so are pretty intense. As a parent, I was moved by the opening scene. We see Pete and his family on a road trip and Pete is reading to his mother. Such a ...
Disney’s BFG is Now Available!
Just in time for the holidays, Disney released The BFG on DVD! Peyton and I saw The BFG over the summer and loved it. Disney and Stephen Speilberg did a fabulous job bringing Roald Dahl's The BFG to life on the big screen. The BFG is a wonderful film to have on hand for family get togethers. It really is a film that will entertain the whole family. I had never seen The BFG before, I know there's an animated version but the first time I had ever seen The BFG or heard the story was when I saw ...
Steam the Germs Away with Shark Genius
You all know I live in Minnesota with my daughter and a gaggle of pets. I feel like I am forever cleaning and I frequently question if things are really clean. I'm the type of mom that carries wipes with me everywhere so I can clean down tables and countertops when we are out and about. And I always have a bottle of hand sanitizer with us just in case there is nowhere to wash our hands. When I saw Shark has a steam mop that not only cleans but sanitizes the floor I became super excited. My ...
