Guys, I'm so, so excited for "Moana"! It looks like a darling movie and I have warm fuzzy feelings for the Polynesian culture since my parents lived in Hawaii for 18 months and because where I live in Missouri has a very large Polynesian population. I'm really excited to share this new trailer for the film.So what is "Moana" about? Three thousand years ago, the greatest sailors in the world voyaged across the vast Pacific, discovering the many islands of Oceania. But then, for a … [Read more...]
Blue Man Group Boston
I have decided that there is no place where an adult can feel young again like a performance of Blue Man Group. I decided that for my husband’s birthday I was going to do something a little different and go all out. We would head into the city, go to dinner, walk around and enjoy some entertainment. We like fun and we like funny! I knew that he wouldn’t enjoy a musical near as much as I would so I figured I would look for something that was a little more his style. That didn’t mean it had … [Read more...]

Tiny Love Product Review
I had recently received a few amazing products from Tiny Love. I absolutely adore these products. One of the products we received was the Discover the World Play Mat. What a terrific item! There are so many things I love about this design. First off I love maps- in fact we have a map of the United States in our play room. The fact that tiny love made the world their base for a baby play mat was indeed inspired. Not only do I love the colors and the cleverness about it but I love the … [Read more...]

Today’s discussion has been sponsored by NETGEAR. All opinions are my own.At our house we have the standard modem/router from our internet provider.

Finally More from Disney’s Big Hero 6
I first told you about Big Hero 6 a LONG time ago and then it sort of disappeared in the madness of Muppets Most Wanted, Captain America, Maleficent and other big Disney films that are coming soon. So I was excited to see a little more information on the film to pass on. I think it's funny the Japanese Anime style that the film has. The animators did a fantastic job of having the location, characters and animation all completely match. It totally envelopes you and you are … [Read more...]

Zubie: Keeping You Connected to Your Car
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Zubie. All opinions are 100% mine.Back in 2002 my soon-to-be-husband (we were going to be married in 1 month) were given a car as a wedding gift from both of our parents. We were excited but also anxious at this new responsibility. Both of our Father's explained to us how to car for a car and that maintenance is key to helping the car last as long as possible. We did not shirk that responsibility. That 15 year old car is still working … [Read more...]
