How Fun Are You? Keurig Wants to Know! | Plus, Enter To Win A Keurig Brewer! #YourPerfectCup

I've been told by my seven year old that I'm a "Fun Mom."  I can't help but ask her if she thinks I'm fun when I send her to her room to clean it or when I tell her we can have breakfast for dinner.  Needless to say, she disagrees with her own statement when I mention her room.  I don't quite see myself as a "Fun Mom" as often as I should.  I guess it's because I have too much on my mind, like say, REALITY -- bills, chores, cooking, cleaning -- all that good stuff us moms go through.

Listerine and The Motherhood challenged us in taking the Listerine challenge for 3 weeks and we've succeeded.  It wasn't difficult to keep up (thank goodness!) with the 3-week challenge since I am very diligent about keeping our mouths clean but with this challenge, brushing was now fun -- according to my 7 year old. :) Just in case you missed reading my first initial post, click anywhere in this sentence to do so. My two older children didn't want to "participate" in the … [Read more...]

San Francisco, Here I Come! #DisneyPixarEvent

I don't even know where to begin.  I'm so thrilled to be attending a Disney and Pixar event in San Francisco with 24 other bloggers from around the country! I literally screamed when I saw the email in my inbox. My kids were like, "Um, Mom, why are you acting like a kid?"  I replied with, "I'm going to San Fransisco!" The looks on their faces were priceless! After that, my girls were asking if they could go. Sadly, they cannot. It's only for bloggers. YES!! lol  Shh, don't tell … [Read more...]
