Discover Curioso Cuff

Curioso Cuff with Light Up Opal

Moscow Ballet’s Great Russian Nutcracker

Moscow Ballet's Great Russian Nutcracker

If you spend anytime with Peyton you know she is theatrical. She also loves to take in live performances whenever she gets a chance. Typically we see plays but when the chance to see Moscow Ballet's Great Russian Nutcracker I just had to jump on it. I've never been to a ballet either and have always wanted to. I had no clue what to expect but I was excited. When the big day arrived I dressed Peyton in an adorable dress and we headed off to the historic Orpheum Theatre. Once we found parking and ...

Be the Ultimate Fan with Fan Hands

Fan Hands Pink Gloves

Living in Minnesota means about 7 months out of the year it's cold. And about 4 months out the year gloves are a must. Even with these known facts our politicians and local sports teams thought it was a spectacular idea to build outdoor stadiums! Now everyone can be out in the elements when it's -11!! Woohoo!!! I can not even go into the lack of common sense that went into these decisions. Anywho, one drawbacks of having an outdoor stadium (or in our case several to choose from) when attending ...

Deliciously Pink Treats

Good Humor Bar Strawberry Shortcake

Treats! Treats are everywhere you turn. And everything looks scrumptious.  But I want to have something a little different than chocolate roses or chocolate covered strawberries. Here are a few of my favorite treats  for Valentine's Day. Growing up it was a treat to have Breyers ice cream. I LOVED their strawberry ice cream because there are chunks of strawberries! But I also love the Neapolitan because I like to mix the strawberry, chocolate and vanilla together making it into a one of a ...
