  • Toll Roads No Problem with the FastToll App

    Peyton and I are in the Chicago area at least every other month. But I don’t want to invest in an I-Pass because I don’t need it in Minnesota.

Get Your Bergamot On

We have been using essential oils in our house for years. Everyday we use at least one oil in a diffuser if not more. And I love to share how we incorporate them into our daily life. When I first started using oils I had no clue what Bergamot Essential Oil was just based on it's name. In fact, for a long time I never used it because I wasn't sure what it was. But it's actually a very commonly used oil. Bergamot oil is derived from the rind of a nearly ripe fruit of the bergamot tree. I bet ...

Nick’s Very First Day of Baseball

My nephews love sports and are about three years old. Nick's Very First Day of Baseball is the perfect book for them. Children are curious by nature and this book really helps a  child understand the game of baseball and everything that goes into it. Even my 5 year old daughter loved listening to the story. But I must admit my favorite part was when the coach was having the children do exercises. The level of detail Kevin Christofora (the author) wrote gave step by step instructions for ...

Wilton Wilberry & The Magical Christmas Wishing Well

Wilton Wilberry and the Magical Christmas Wishing Well is not your average Christmas story. When I first picked it up I was surprised that it was forty some pages.  At first I didn't think my daughter would sit still that long but I was wrong. On the very first page we meet Wilton Wilberry, a young child who is not very happy. Every Christmas he feels his brother and sister get all the good presents and he only gets the boring presents. And he is not happy! That night he cries himself to ...

The Three Wise Guys

This is a cute story! I chuckled all the way through it. It's meant for a little older crowd, about 6 or so.  There's lots of humor throughout the story. I feel because of the humor, your child would need to know the bible story of the birth of Jesus to fully get the humor. I love the little boy’s humor in this book, I feel he captures how many of us feel time to time about Sunday school. The Three Wise Guys tells a story about a Sunday school class putting on a play about the birth of ...
