  • What’s New at Valleyfair for 2018

    Growing up, the annual trip to Valleyfair in Shakopee, Minnesota was a day we all looked forward to. Every year there is always something new at Valleyfair. We’d usually go once with family and once with school. I have many fond memories of those trips. Now, that I am a mom, I take Peyton to… [Continue Reading]

  • Wall Drug

    Stopping at Wall Drug is a must if you are in South Dakota. I had never been before so I wasn’t sure what to expect. When we arrived, immediately I felt overwhelmed. Thank goodness we visited during the off-season, I don’t think I could’ve driven Wall Drug during peak season. It would’ve been way too… [Continue Reading]

  • Explore Bourbon Country

    Yes, you read that right, let’s explore bourbon country! It’s similar to how people explore wine country. They head to a vineyard, sip some wine, enjoy small bites and make a vacation out of it. So why not do that with Bourbon? Kentucky is home to some of the most spectacular Bourbon distillers, you can… [Continue Reading]

  • Explore the Lincoln Park Zoo

    Another place I had never been on all my travel to Illinois was the Lincoln Park Zoo.  It’s a free zoo so I’m not sure why we’ve never visited but I decided we were going to check it out this time. Spending the day at the zoo is one of Peyton’s and my favorite things… [Continue Reading]

  • Wind Cave National Park: Scenic Cave Tour

    Peyton discovered cave tours last year when I took her on one in southern Minnesota. From that moment on, she has been begging to go on more cave tours.

  • Custer County Candy Company

    On our trip through South Dakota, we stumbled across an adorable old fashioned candy store. The Custer County Candy Company is located in Custer just a 15 minuted drive from Wind Cave National Park. It’s right off the main drag, tucked back just a little ways off the street. If you see a huge metal… [Continue Reading]

Turkey and Cheese Sushi Bento Box

Turkey and Cheese Sushi

We still have that smashed loaf of bread so as I'm still making "sushi" sandwiches for Peyton. Today I decided to use some thinly sliced turkey breast and thinly sliced Colby Jack cheese for the filling. Because you are rolling the bread you only need one or two slices of turkey and a slice of cheese. If you put too much in, you won't be able to roll it and it'll fall apart. Once you have the bread rolled take a sharp knife and slice the roll into 3-5 pieces depending on size of bento box and ...

The Life We Never Expected

The Life We Never Expected was written by Andrew and Rachel Wilson.  The typical married couple that have two children, however, their children are regressive autistic. Not something you think about when you decide to have children. I don't think there is a parent alive that plans for a child with disabilities. When you're pregnant it's all about having a baby! The joy of being pregnant and welcoming a new little one into the world. And for Andrew and Rachel they did have the excitement and joy ...

Dinosaur Turkey and Cheese Bento Box

Dinosaur Turkey and Cheese Bento Box

According to Peyton this is one of her favorite Bento Boxes because of Little Foot Sandwiches. Peyton is obsessed with The Land Before Time and Little Foot, the long neck dinosaur.  Making a dinosaur sandwich is pretty simple. I used thinly sliced turkey breast, thin sliced Colby Jack cheese and whole wheat bread. But you can use any type of meat, cheese or even peanut butter and jelly. Then I used the dinosaur cutter to cut the sandwich into 2 dinosaur shapes. We had some fresh strawberries ...

Walmart Beauty Box Summer 2016

Aveeno, Pantene, Jergens, Nivea, Degree, Caress

I had taken a break on getting the Walmart Beauty Box for about 6 months. But I heard there were some changes so I wanted to check it out for myself and see what it was like now.  It's still $5 and ships once every season. Currently, they are on the summer box.  It also looks like there may be variations between boxes but it doesn't tell you what would be different and there are no boxes to choose from. You just fill out your contact information, shipping and payment info. This is what I ...

Dolphin Peanut Butter and Jelly Bento Box

Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwiches are a staple in many households. But how do you make them fun? By getting a cookie or sandwich cutter and turning them into a unique shape! Today I made Peyton Dolphin shaped Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches. It's really easy. Just make the sandwich like you normally would and then take the cookie/sandwich cutter and turn it into a shape. Go light on the jelly because it will spill out if there's too much. Next up, I had to choose a fruit and since we had ...
