Disney's The BFG opened nationwide on Friday. Peyton and I had a chance to see it and we are going to share our thoughts with you. This was a first for Peyton. Typically, we see animated movies or movies based on princesses. The BFG is based off a book by Roald Dahl and adapted to the big screen by Disney with the help of Steven Speilberg. It's an imaginative story about a little girl, Sophie, who becomes friends with a giant, BFG. Through their friendship, Sophie learns all about Giant ...
Caramel Corn the MELT Organic Way
We are huge caramel popcorn lovers in this house. Whenever I buy a bag, Peyton eats it the instant we get home. She even hides it so she is the only one to get any!

Don’t Fall Victim to a Mortgage Relief Scam
I remember the day I signed the papers for my very own townhome. I was 23 years old at the time and it was just right before the housing market crashed. The next few years was a little scary. With all the scam phone calls about mortgage relief, it sure would have been nice to have a number to call for help. If you have ever been a home owner then you will understand when I say that buying your own home is one of the most gratifying feelings in the world. Not simply because you know that you ...
