Despite the heat in the kitchen (our AC is still out!) the kids were begging me to bake some cookies with them yesterday afternoon. I decided that if I had to endure the heat, I’d at least make something fun and festive to enjoy for the 4th of July. I love making cake…

Wedding Photography Workshop #WW
Last Thursday, I joined my sister and the other incredible photographers at Char Photography studio for an all-day intensive wedding photography workshop. And when I say intensive I mean that we spent 12 hours discussing the ins and outs of taking wedding photos, running a wedding photography business, editing, using flash and then putting…
Delivery Man: An Exclusive Peek at the New Movie
Note: Several months ago, I was invited to attend a Delivery Man press event where I was able to sit in on a scene while Cobie Smulders and Vince Vaughn were filming. My travel and accommodations were covered, but I received no compensation for this post. All opinions are my own. What does…
The Chew: Dress Up Your Summer Salads with Homemade Dressing
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of ABC’s The Chew. The opinions and text are all mine. The only thing better than watching the brilliant chefs and bakers on The Chew cook up delicious food each weekday would be joining them in their kitchens to sample everything they make. While…
The Lone Ranger Movie Review + Armie Hammer Interview
Disclosure: I was invited to a local screening of The Lone Ranger last week but no compensation was received for this post. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Over a year ago, I was able to participate in a phone interview with Armie Hammer while he was in the middle of filming The…

Cub Scout Day Camp #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
Exhausted. I guess this is how summer is going to be. It’s a good exhausted. I’m exhausted from spending 5 1/2 hours at Cub Scout day camp yesterday…in the heat, on my feet, watching 10 young scouts. AJ was thrilled to have me there and I was glad that I could make it. I…
White House Down Top 10. And Channing Tatum
Note: I was invited to attend the Washington DC Premiere of ‘White House Down’ at AMC Georgetown and had the chance to meet the stars of the movie, but all opinions are my own. I mean, would you turn down the opportunity to have Channing Tatum, Jamie Foxx, Joey King, and Maggie…
Teddy’s Table – Restaurant Reviews by Families for Families – $50 Giveaway
This post and giveaway is being sponsored by Teddy’s Table, but all thoughts and opinions are my own. I remember when my kids were younger and much, much more difficult to take out to restaurants. I love eating out…but eating out with kids can be difficult. When we would find a restaurant that worked…
Pioneer Trek – #WordlessWednesday
Yesterday, I picked my two older girls and husband up from a four-day reenactment hike – Pioneer Trek – with the area’s church youth group. Yes, I got my teenage daughters to dress in long skirts and bonnets (ahem…I sewed the bonnets myself!), skip showering for several days, and walk for many, many miles…
