DreamWorks Home Movie Review

I am so excited that my daughter is finally at an age that she likes to go to movies! These past 5 years I can count how many times I have seen a movie in the theater on one hand. But over the past few months her tune has been changing so tonight we went to a sneak peak of Home. Boy was she excited! I took off work early and picked her up from Pre-Kindergarten and off to the theater we went. I really was not sure what to expect. We have watched the movie trailers a few times and honestly I ...

What It’s Like Driving With a Kid in the Car

Before my daughter came along I used to drive to work with the music on and just enjoy the me time. If I needed some quiet time I could turn off the radio and enjoy the drive in silence. All that came to a screeching halt the day she was born. Most days I do not mind her endless questions or chatter. But some days, some days I could really use silence.  This morning Peyton decided she wanted to be the mom and pretend she was driving me to school. If you know me, you know I can be ...

Celebrating St. Patrick’s Day with Kids

I love the holidays. I love dressing up, decorating the house, baking, basically anything fun to make the holiday more festive. But when I had my daughter I often found myself short on time, energy or both. I still want to celebrate. I still want to do fun things she will remember when she is older. But being a single mom and working full time sometimes really suck all the energy right out of me. And now St Patricks day falls during the week. I am most rushed during the week. So how are we going ...

Walmart Beauty Box

Today when we arrived home Peyton and I had a little surprise! The Wal-Mart Beauty box was in our mail box. The Wal-Mart Beauty box costs $5 and is mailed out every 3 months.

Included in the box were: ~ L'Oreal Paris Total Repair 5 Shampoo & Conditioner ~ Caress Fine Fragrance Body Wash in Adore Forever ~ Dial 7 Day Moisturizing Lotion ~Lady Gaga Eau De Parfum ~ Black Fluid ~ Sample ...

Twelve Dancing Princesses

Peyton and I love to see live performances. Tonight we attended a performance of Twelve Dancing Princesses at Stages Theatre.  Usually before we attend a play I like to read Peyton the book. Not only does it get her excited to see the play but it also gives me an idea of what to expect. However, this time around that did not happen. I really had no idea what we were going to see but I was not too concerned. Every single performance we have attended at Stages Theatre has been great. When we ...

Slow Cooker Recipes for Beginners Review
