My 3-Day Experience At Split Rock Resort in PA
September 20, 2010 by 5 Comments
A few months ago I won a giveaway from mommypoppins.com for a 2-night, 3-day stay in the Galleria at Split Rock Resort at Lake Harmony, Pennsylvania. I was so happy (Thank you Mommy Poppins!) that I finally won a much needed mini vacation being that we didn't do much all summer because of our busy schedule. During this past summer, I was trying to think which week would be perfect for our mini vacation. I opted to leave it for the last few days of August to say a nice farewell to Summer. … [Read more...]

A brand new Disney movie is making it's debut on DVD and Blu-ray next Tuesday September 21st. It's called Tinker Bell and The Great Fairy Rescue.

Spoiler alert: My favorite part was when the father found out the real truth and stopped doubting Lizzy. That father and daughter moment made me tear up … [Read more...]
Marmaduke | Movie Review
September 17, 2010 by 2 Comments
Marmaduke came into my life the moment I started reading the Sunday funnies. It was the cartoon I went to first to read and laugh. Marmaduke always made me feel giddy. Now that I'm older, I don't even look at the funnies anymore but my kids do. I'll buy the newspaper just for the coupons -- my kids love the newspaper because of the funnies. We finally saw Marmaduke last weekend and it didn't catch the interest of my husband or my two older kids so my five year old and I stayed on the sofa … [Read more...]
Reboost With A New Boost Mobile
September 12, 2010 by Leave a Comment
This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Boost Mobile. All opinions are 100% mine. Since my son is in high school and hasn't had a phone yet, we're looking into different plans that would work for him and for our budget. I don't want to put him in our monthly plan because that would be too expensive and I don't want to commit to it for 2 years. Instead, we're looking into pre-paid plans. The plan that caught my eye was the Boost Mobile. It has everything a high school kid … [Read more...]

So folks, that's it. It's Back-to-school time! Summer is finally over (boo-hoo) and school is now in session. Kids will be on a schedule (finally!) and will bring home homework (among other things) every week. On top of bringing homework to the home, they'll also bring home those nasty germs from school. Did you know that 2.7 million bacterial found per square inch is on common school surfaces? It's no wonder that 82 percent of parents with kids in grades K-5 fret about the germs in … [Read more...]
Tips On Keeping Your Mascara On Your Lashes
August 26, 2010 by 3 Comments
I don't normally blog about beauty because there are tons of beauty blogs out in the blogosphere that I frequent and I learn from them but I think I should at least write posts about things that I do that makes my "beauty time" easier, right? I've been using mascara since I had my son. I was never really into eye makeup before then, just a little eye liner. I was once told that adding mascara to your lashes will make your eyes stand out and they were definitely right. I love mascara but … [Read more...]

August 23, 2010 by 150 Comments
New York State has had a cellular phone law since December 2001 with a fine of $100 if a person is caught with a hand-held phone. I'll be honest with you and say I was one of those people who broke that law. But shhh, don't let anyone know, let it be our secret. ;) I'm glad to say that ever since I was sent a Jabra STONE Bluetooth Headset With Extreme Noise Blocking, I haven't broken any laws and life has been less on the edge and I feel safer driving with my blue tooth on my ear instead of … [Read more...]

While the kids played in the play area, the parents/bloggers learned how True Cook Plus works, which is a microwave technology that cooks … [Read more...]
