Happy (almost) Chinese New Year! We are celebrating the Year of the Pig in 2019 but that’s no reason not to do this super cute Year of the Dog Chinese New Year Craft. People who were born in 1934, 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006 and 2018 all fall under the sign of the dog,…
Do you remember the 90’s when the Spice Girls sang about Girl Power? Forget all that. Soon-to-be-released Captain Marvel takes girl power to such another level that using such a fluffy term to describe her sheer badassery probably shouldn’t be allowed. Captain Marvel will hit theaters on March 8th (yes, that’s less than two months…
2018 was such an outstanding year at the movies and Disney blew it out of the water with some amazing films.

I love being able to work from home. It allows me to contribute to my families income, be here when my kids need me to be here, and do a job I really love doing. I love the flexibility, the opportunities to travel and do other cool things, and…the dress code is pretty sweet, too….
I am a Christmas person. I don’t love eggnog, but I love everything else about Christmas. We believe in Santa. And Jesus. The Santa and Jesus combo on the front lawn doesn’t bother me…I’ll just put that out there. It makes me laugh but it doesn’t bother me. Disclaimer: We are a participant in the…

I’m not talking about those extra pounds that happen from eating too many cookies…that’s a given. I’m talking about overall health,…
My husband and I are in the process of preparing to buy a car. I’ll just pause for a second and let you take a few minutes to be impressed at our level of organization. You see, we have never really planned out our car-buying process. In the past, we’ve made the decision to replace…
