Thanks for the great cookie recipe Jamie from The Family Savvy! You had me at strawberry! I can't wait to whip these up for my kids...they're going to love them. Christmas comes around every year and the first thing we do is decorate, then we spend a whole day baking cookies. We make about 5 different cookies on average but my husband's personal favorite are his grandma's cookies. That's ... continue reading...
Resort Review: Iberostar Rose Hall Suites, Jamaica
White sandy beaches, warm calm water, and the friendliest people…are these the things you think of when you think of Jamaica? When we told people we were going to Jamaica we heard all kinds of things about how people hated it. See my post on the myths and truths about Jamaica here. None of that was true for us. I blame it on those few bad experiences, and to be honest most of those ... continue reading...
Kids Christmas Guide- Christmas without toys
Christmas comes every year and the scramble to get the kids more toys they don't need is ridiculous. Every year I tell myself no more! No more toys that will get played with once just to end up getting broken, pieces lost, or thrown into one of the 5 bins of junk toys never to be touched again. My kids have so many toys and honestly they don't need anymore. If I never pick up another car or ... continue reading...
Travel Review: Jamaica
Every year my family tries to go on a trip together. Last year we went to Cancun, which you can see my review on the resort here. We took the kids with us last year but decided until they are a little older we will only take them every other year. It's hard to really experience a place with little kids. Plus mommy and daddy would like to let loose every once in a while (wink wink). For ... continue reading...
Southwestern Taco Cups
Mexican is always a success in our house. Mom and dad can't get enough of it and the kids also love it. I get tired of making the same thing over and over again. It seems like every week we're having the same old tacos and burritos. I get bored fast with food and want to switch it up. I love pretty much love anything bite size so when I saw a couple different takes on taco cups I ... continue reading...
Tips for doing disneyland halloween right
Disneyland during Halloween time is probably my favorite time to be there. Of course Christmas is magical, but the crowds are also bigger. Halloween time brings decor, experiences, meet n' greets, and food you can only experience for 2 months out of the year. I get asked almost weekly for tips on how to do Disney, but Halloween time is the one I get the most. I've decided it's time to share ... continue reading...
Mouse-ka-cookies
My oldest son, Liam, loves to cook and bake. We try and make something new every week so he can practice his skills. Our love for everything Mickey is tremendous. When I looked up ideas for fun Mickey cookies, there weren't that many and what was there was too hard for such a young chef. I immediately went through my recipe box, yes I'm old school and still keep a box of all my recipes, to ... continue reading...
Pumpkin Cookies
My favorite time of the year is fall! Boots, perfect weather, warm cup of cocoa, and everything pumpkin. Yep, I'm that crazy pumpkin fanatic. I'm the one that counts down the days to the first day of pumpkin spice lattes. Even though I love pumpkin to my core, I've never really been into pumpkin desserts. I know, it's super weird but I just couldn't ever get into pumpkin rolls or ... continue reading...
Acai Bowls
When I first heard of Acai bowls I was for sure it was a fad food that looked better than it actually taste. I refused to try them because Acai just sounds like it's "too healthy" to actually taste good and oh my goodness I wasn't going to spend $10 on a bowl I don't even know if I like. Still curiosity had me. It wasn't until I went on vacation to California that I decided to give it a ... continue reading...
We all need to be losers!
Have you recently been to a child's sporting event? Have you noticed things are drastically different from just 15 years ago? Have you ever stopped and wondered what the consequences could be? I first noticed the "everyone's a winner" methodology when my younger (much younger) brother was in sports. I didn't realize the extent of it until we put our oldest in his first actual sport, a few ... continue reading...
