Cirque Dreams Holidaze offers a fantastic combination of singing, acrobatics, illusions, stunts, and glittery costumes that are sure to excite and please family of all ages. I was on the edge of my seat... The Winks’ Kidzz Club at The Benjamin Hotel NYC
I love New York. I have been able to share my love of the city with my 13 year old daughter and last week I decided to share my love of the city with my 3 boys as well. I packed up my 4 kids, hopped on the MegaBus and headed to NYC for a 3 day adventure that I won’t soon forget.
One of the things I love about traveling is the hotel stay, the comfy beds and the awesome pillows. I wanted the kids to feel special for this trip and enjoy the hotel experience as much as I do so I was... Cirque Dreams Holidaze Comes to Pittsburgh
You Are Never Too Old For Build A Bear Workshop
“You are never too old for Build A Bear Workshop” ~ words right out of the mouth of my 13 year old daughter that I loved hearing. I believe you are never too old for many things, Santa, Disney, lollipops, cotton candy and teddy bears are just a few. Thats why I love Build A Bear Workshop so much, it brings out the child in each of us and touches a place in our hearts that we sometimes “get to old for”
Build A Bear Workshop recently invited me to visit my local store... #GNO Just Got Longer Than 140 Characters!

A few weeks ago I was part of a group of bloggers that was invited to tour the Toyota Motor Manufacturing Indiana (TMMI) campus. TMMI produces the Sequoia full-size sport utility vehicle, the Sienna minivan, and the Highlander mid-size sport utility vehicle.
