Ok, I know I've said this before, but I'm so excited that during Spring Break I will be taking my girls to Disney Junior Live: Pirate & Princess Adventure. What better way to celebrate spring break and increasingly nice weather than with a family trip out of the house and over to the theater!? My girls are huge Disney Jr fans and love their Sofia and Jake shows, so this will truly be a treat for them! Are you in the NYC area? If you are, ...

Week 1 Nutrisystem Weigh In #NSNation #sponsored
Nutrisystem’s first week starts off a bit different. The Fast 5 program is designed to get your system ready for a long term change in eating habits by keeping your calories at around 1000 a day. The goal is to lose five pounds during that first week. I was worried during the start of the week that I wouldn’t be able to handle such a drastic change in eating but I found two things that helped me accomplish it. The first thing is to follow the ...
The Bunnies Have Arrived at Build a Bear Workshop!
Easter is almost here and you know what that means? It's time to start thinking about Easter baskets! All the kids that are getting Easter baskets from me this year are getting swimming themed baskets- swim suits, shoes, and gear. Of course, it wouldn't be a special Easter basket without a furry friend, and while I always opt to take my girls to Build a Bear Workshop to pick their own, this year we just won't have time to make it to the store. ...
Greek Easter Traditions with Hershey’s! + A Chocolatey Fun Giveaway! #BunnyTrail
As the Easter theme spreads across your store shelves, it is only natural to start thinking of how you will celebrate Easter, who you will celebrate with, and how you will make this year memorable for your kids. Hershey's has always epitomized Easter when I was growing up. My mom would take us to the local drugstore to pick out our baskets, grass, and items to fill our baskets with. She didn't hold us back when it came to the Easter goodies, like ...
Keep Them Stylish This Summer With Stella Cove Swimwear
Having appropriate swimwear is essential to any girl's summer wardrobe at any age. We all want to look and feel good, but most importantly, we want to know our little girl's skin is protected from the sun's rays. I was always insistent on my girls wearing SPF shirts and bottoms, but as my oldest daughter has seen the other options out there for swim suits, I'm slowly losing this battle. Who can blame her? After checking out the fun swim styles ...

What better way to celebrate spring break with the kiddos home than with their favorite characters? My daughters cannot wait to see the Pirate and Princess adventures with Sofia, Jake, and more! We've been watching commercials for this upcoming show for nearly a year, so now that we are counting down the days til we go, we are so excited. ...
My Hubby Is a Nutrisystem Blogger! #NSNation #sponsored
I’m fat. I finally admit it. I overeat way too much and as much as I would like to deny it I have become obese over the last few years. My wife had two kids and was able to drop the weight, but as for me I just keep putting it on. I thought about dieting on many different occasions, the operative word being “thought”. After reading up on the Nutrisystem plan, I finally decided that I should actually try dieting and not just think about it. Why ...
Hearty Beef Stew Recipe Featuring Gallo Hearty Burgundy #HBturns50
I wasn't always a wine drinker, and at one point I never thought I would be. So, when I would look at menus that would show the best wines to accompany certain meals, I didn't get it- couldn't you drink any wine with any type of dish- why were red wines recommended for red meats while white wines always seemed to go with fish? I guess I would never understand until I was introduced to the world of wines and their distinct personalities. After I ...
