Before I headed out of town last week (it seems like AGES ago!) I had the chance to take 3 of my kids (the 3 who were not already committed to other weekend activities that morning) to a screening of the new Dreamworks movie, The Croods. Like many of animated kids’ movies, I hadn’t payed…
3 Tips for Creating the Perfect Movie Night at Home
For years, when we were in the middle of babies and diapers and not many funds left to pay a babysitter, date night meant movie night at home. Putting the kids to bed, popping some popcorn, and sitting down on the couch together to watch a movie was almost as rejuvenating as getting out of…
Meet the Newest MU Freshman! #MonstersUEvent
No, I’m not talking about my oldest daughter heading off to college (expect that announcement next year). Me! I’m going to be leaving in just a few weeks for freshman orientation at MU (Monsters University, that is). My decision to head back to school came somewhat spur of the moment, though I’ve been putting quite…
Shoot Video Like A Pro – 5 Basic Mistakes You Can Fix Instantly
My husband is guest posting today with a few tips from his area of expertise – video!

OZ the Great and Powerful Review and Printable Activity Sheets

I’m just an ordinary, relatively unexciting girl with few surprises up my sleeve. Maybe that’s why I was attracted to my husband. CandyMan is an extreme –…
Jack the Giant Slayer Movie Review
Every once in a while I get to be a really cool mom – the kind of mom who takes a kid to the movies on a school night (and not just any movie, but a see-it-before-anyone-else screening). I get bonus points when the movie screening is for a highly-anticipated movie like Jack the Giant…
Kids’ Spring Collection at Gymboree {$75 Giveaway}
When my kids were little, I loved clothes shopping for them. Aren’t kids so much fun to dress? (I always wished that my clothes could be as cute as theirs). As my kids have gotten older, I’ve noticed a rather annoying trend – they want to pick out their own clothes, and they have strong…
Cut. Color. Confidence! $50 Hair Cuttery Giveaway
I’m one of those women who would never DO anything with my hair if I had a choice. I feel like I’m constantly running around, from one task to the next important task, and the simple act of catching a shower every day can be a challenge. Getting showered, dressed, and made-up is success for…
