  • A Night at Medieval Times

    I am always looking for new and unique experiences to take Peyton to. And when I saw Medieval Times, I knew I wanted to take her! How cool would it be to sit in a castle, watch knights jousting and have dinner? It sounded so cool. The only problem is, there is no castle in… [Continue Reading]

  • 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.

That Would Be Me by Harry Connick Jr

This time of year I need to channel my inner strength and energy to get through the long days with minimal sun light. One way to get energized is to find a toe tapping, high energy beat to listen. Music has monumental influence over a person. It can make you happy, sad or down right silly. Harry Connick Jr recently released a new album, That Would Be Me. Let me just say it's fab! The very first song, Smile, is a toe tapping, high energy, feel good song. I instantly loved it within the first few ...

Traveling Disney Style

We are heading to Disney in Fall 2016. Yes, I know that's a year a way. To be exact we are 380 days from departure! But I have found that if I plan out a Disney trip over a year or 18 months and chip away at the cost each month I can do it. I think what makes most family vacations impossible is the cost. And when you try to plan a huge vacation in just a few months that cost can be overwhelming. Now that we are just over a year out I like to start getting the practical things we need for our ...
