A Visit to Both Hamilton, New Jersey & Lancaster, Pennsylvania in the 2017 Mazda CX-5 Grand Touring AWD #DriveMazda

Disclosure: Mazda provided the CX-5 exclusively for this review. No monetary compensation was received. All opinions are strictly my own. This past summer, we didn't do much of anything as in vacationing in a resort or visits at the beach. We pretty much hung around my hometown and did things nearby like visit the parks, visits to Rita's for some cold, creamy custards (yum!) and lots of backyard play.  My plans for next summer are to take plenty of road trips, one or a few vacations (at the … [Read more...]

{Review} Road Trippin’ in the 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander GT S-AWC #DriveShop #DriveMitsubishi

Disclaimer: Thanks to Drive Shop and Mitsubishi, I was given the opportunity to test drive the 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander for seven days. All opinions are 100% my own. Every time I get a vehicle loaned from Drive Shop, I make it a point to go somewhere miles away so that I can get a good feel for the way the vehicle drives and handles on the road. So that's exactly what I did; I took a small road trip with my youngest to New Jersey to visit my sister for the weekend. I was beyond grateful … [Read more...]

Back-To-School Shopping with the 2016 Mazda CX-9 Signature AWD @MazdaUSA #DriveMazda #DriveShop

Disclaimer: Thanks to Drive Shop and Mazda, I was given the opportunity to test drive the 2016 Mazda CX-9 for one whole week. All opinions are 100% my own. I dread back-to-school shopping every year like the plague! The running around, trying to score deals, comparing prices  and the crowds are not my thing at all. Heck - walking though the mall is not my thing neither but it's inevitable. It's something I must do.  I don't want my kids going back to school with nothing. What kind of mother … [Read more...]

What a weekend! I barely had any time to socialize online because I was busy hanging out with my lovely family enjoying two birthdays, delicious cannoli cake and Medieval Times. This past Saturday was my son's 16th birthday! I can not believe I am a mother of a sixteen year old. It feels like just yesterday when I had him and now poof, he's turned into this wonderful young man. Sniff, sniff. My husband and I wanted his 16th birthday to be extra special so we decided to go to Medieval Times … [Read more...]

Wordless Wednesday – Picture Fun {Linky}

Looking thru my old papers and old photos, I found this picture. It was taken at Great Adventures in New Jersey in 1995. This is supposed to be the way our "child" would look if we both had children together. HA!  HA!  HA! We have 3 kids and they don't look nothing like this picture. Looking at it now makes us both laugh and reminisce about the days we would talk about getting married and having kids. The good ol' days! For more Wordless Wednesday, please visit … [Read more...]
