I am so excited that summer vacation is here! I plan on doing a lot of fun things with my kids. We want to visit the splash park, library, movies, and we are even planning a trip to Florida.
I don’t know if this happens in your house, but when my kids are home for summer vacation, they are always hungry. I don’t know if it is because they are outside running around more or if they are bored. That’s why I have already been to Sam’s Club to stock up on food and snacks to make meal time much easier with my kids.
When I was in the frozen food aisle, my kids asked for Tyson® Crispy Chicken Strips and Tyson® Chicken Tenders. Of course, I said yes because I can heat these up in just a few minutes and add a few sides and we have an easy and delicious lunch.

If you have been reading my blog for the past year, you know how much I love my neighborhood. Just about every night we all end up hanging out in someone’s driveway or deck and chatting until the sun goes down.
We have the last house on the last street right next to the woods, so we have the perfect spot for an outdoor movie night. I usually get everything together for my family to enjoy some outdoor fun together and then I plan for a bunch of the families in the neighborhood to end up in my yard.
As a mom, you are usually prepared when extra people show up. So I wanted to share some of my best tips to throw an outdoor movie night for your family (or your whole block)! Read more…
Don’t you just love all the Marvel movies! I am totally a lover of all the super hero movies. We don’t go to the movies very often – but I make sure we plan a trip to the movies when these are in the theaters.

After many years of living overseas, we finally fulfilled the promise to get our kids a dog. During Spring Break we got a puppy. She’s full of energy and loves to play outside. We recently took her to a vet, and since we live close to the woods, the vet suggested we purchase Revolution. It will protect her from fleas, ticks, and heartworms.
We were so happy that she was old enough for this protection because the ticks in our area were pretty bad. I thought because we were getting her checked out at a mobile vet and because they placed a mail order for the Revolution, I was getting a good deal. Well, I was wrong……

I never buy myself anything but a few months ago I decided to buy myself an Apple Watch. I wanted something to track my activity and this wasn’t too much more and it had so more functions.
I really do love my watch. It’s a fun device to have and if you have been thinking about it – do it! I love that I can glance at my wrist when a text comes through or when my phone is ringing – especially when I am with people. It’s nice to keep my phone in my purse but I am still on top of things.

I received a Thinkster straw bottle in exchange for a review. All opinions are my own.As a Mom of three, finding a good cup that doesn’t spill, is easy to get clean and kid friendly to use, has taken several fails before getting it right. I do my best to try to find products that are safe from harmful chemicals that can have negative consequences on the health of my child while standing up to my toddler. The well-designed Thinkster from Thinkbaby has solved all of the above issues for me and my child.
