Yesterday, sitting pool-side at my oldest daughter’s swim meet, I found my missing Thanksgiving photos, which I assumed had been deleted off my memory card the day after Thanksgiving. The photos were nothing spectacular, but I was over-joyed to find them. Their discovery was something to be thankful for, for sure. PS – yes, I…
Emily Watson Discusses Parenting, Acting, and War Horse
It has been nearly two weeks since my trip to New York City and I still haven’t even scratched the surface of the amazing opportunity that it was to be in New York at Christmas with Disney/Dreamworks and a group of talented bloggers. The day after our group attended the world premiere of Steven Spielberg’s…
Who’s Your Santa? #jcpSecretSanta
I’m not a big fan of surprises….for myself. But I love being part of a surprise for someone else. I was so excited to find out that I was chosen to participate in a blogger Secret Santa program with JCPenney. Yes, I admit that I LOVE shopping for other people. It’s one of my favorite…
Georgetown Cupcakes with a Friend – PSF
What do two blogging friends do when they meet for the first time? Photo by Kristi (from her iPhone!) They find a place to eat, of course! And what do those two bloggers do when they order a dozen famously gourmet cupcakes? Well, if they are photographers, they take pictures of those cupcakes for 20…
Win a $25 Applebee’s Gift Card
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Gift Card Weekend for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. Who doesn’t like to give and receive gift cards during the holidays? Yeah, I didn’t think I’d get any hands raised. Gift cards are the perfect gift for teachers, friends, family members (especially those…
The Swim Meet – Wordless Wednesday
We’re done with soccer for now and on to SWIM TEAM. KitKat’s first official high school swim meet was this weekend. The meet started at 9:30, and she told me not to get there until 9:45. Of course, she swam both of her events in the first 10 minutes…. So I took pictures of her…
Allowance – Yay or Nay?
Do you give your children an allowance? Whether or not to give children an allowance – and then how much to give them – is a topic that I often hear discussed among parents both on and off line. Over the years, my husband and I have gone back and forth, and I hate to…
Hickory Farms – Part of Our Christmas Tradition
Hickory Farms has been a part of my holiday traditions for as long as I can remember. My mom and I would always pick up some sausage and cheese from the Hickory Farms kiosk at the mall, or better yet, order a gift basket to enjoy for even longer. One of my favorite things about…
End-of-Season Soccer Party with WhoNu Cookies!
WhoNu Cookies sponsored this end-of-season soccer team celebration as well as this post, but all thoughts and opinions are my own. Fall soccer season has been over for a few weeks now and I must admit that the first Saturday morning that I was able to sleep in was pretty heavenly. But despite the lack…
The Amazing Race – Disney/Dreamworks Mom Blogger Style
I love New York City. There’s something so magical and so completely different about it. I’ve also been to New York City enough times to know that nothing is quite as easy as you might imagine (or hope) it would be. Take, for instance, the Disney/Dreamworks journey to the red carpet premiere of Steven Spielberg’s…
