Moana is Now in Theaters!

Peyton and I have been anxiously awaiting the release of Moana. The wait is OVER! Moana opened nationwide today at theaters everywhere. We were fortunate enough to have seen the movie last week and I have been dying to share our thoughts with you. But I couldn't, until today. Moana is awesome! Peyton gave it two thumbs up. I do have one warning, this is a longer movie. I believe it runs just shy of 2 hours. So with that being said, be sure your child can sit through it. And you may want to ...

Presidential Trail at Mount Rushmore South Dakota

Every year, Minnesota schools have a 4-day break in the middle of October. Last year, I decided I wanted to take this time and go explore a part of the United States with Peyton.

When I heard we were going to be having 6-days off I knew I wanted to head to South Dakota. It's a fairly long drive from Minnesota and I knew the ...

Santaland Kids Building a Snowman

Before downtown Minneapolis had  Macy's it was Dayton's department store.

I used to look forward to seeing the displays and all the holiday decorations all year long. As I grew up, things changed, Dayton's was purchased by Macy's.
