As much as I loved our two days in Boston (still more pictures to share about that!) my favorite part of Massachusetts by far was our morning spent hiking and exploring at Halibut Point State Park in Rockport, MA (close to Gloucester, where my mother in law’s family is from). We found the parking…
Hugh Jackman on Parenting, Passion and the Wolverine
I was invited to attend a New York City screening of The Wolverine with The Moms complete with an appearance and interview with Hugh Jackman. Although my movie and interview experience was provided by The Moms, I payed for my own way to get to New York and all opinions are my own. Be…
Rainy Day in Boston #WordlessWednesday
Our first full day in Boston, Massachusetts, was not the most ideal, weather-wise. Between the rain, the chilly temperatures that threw us off (shorts and t-shirts aren’t rainy-and-65-degree friendly) and a few hours of car maintenance, we didn’t get much sight seeing done. But what we did do together was so much fun, even…
Smart Summer Snacking Tips – #WonderfulSummer
Yesterday, I got back from a 1300 mile road trip. Road trips inevitably seem to go hand in hand with bad snacking…candy, chips, soda…why is it that we crave junk food when we’re stuck in the car for hours? Never mind the summer road trips…With the whole family home all summer long, our eating…
Cheers! #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
I just spent a long, rainy day in Boston – my first time in Massachusetts. I had my camera safely hidden in my waterproof bag most of the day, but I was able to pull it out during our early dinner at Cheers. The kids didn’t understand the nostalgia that Dad and Mom felt…
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…
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…
Medieval Times – Amazing Entertainment for the Whole Family
Note: We were given tickets to Medieval Times Dinner and Tournament in Maryland (just outside of Washington DC) for our family. All thoughts and opinions – and photos – are my own. As any mother knows, it is tough to find activities that cater to multiple kids of varying ages. If we take the…
National Gallery of Art {DC Field Trip} #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
One of the best things about out of town visitors is the opportunity to be a tourist in my hometown…and I must say that I’ve got one of the best hometowns for touristy stuff. Last year, when my mother-in-law visited, we spent a day at the Smithsonian’s Museum of Natural History. This week, we…
Pixar Director Dan Scanlon Discusses Monsters University #MonstersUEvent
I attended the Monster’s University Freshman Orientation (press event) in April. Travel expenses and accommodations were covered by Disney/Pixar (as well as plenty of behind-the-scenes sneak peek information about the upcoming movie) but no monetary compensation was received. All opinions are my own. When Monsters, Inc. came to theaters in 2001, Dan Scanlon was just…
