Places to Wander the Wildflowers this Spring

Every year around this time, I see photos pop up on my Facebook feed of people frolicking in fields of budding flowers and every year I swear I’m going to plan a day trip to do the very same. Not only is it an inexpensive way to spend quality time with the family in a gorgeous outdoor setting but […]

Weekend Warriors – Legoland and Beyond

You may know by now that I have an extreme love-hate relationship with Saturday and Sunday and last weekend proved no different. From Legoland to Santa Monica Farmer’s Market, we embarked on an impromptu road trip full of fun, whining, laughter, napless tantrums and lots of driving. + Now that Wes is older and interacting with his surroundings in […]

All in all, it was a great vacation. Amazing people, amazing place, amazing food – everything was, you […]

I started a blog! Wait…WTF…I started a blog?

If you’re like me and you have kids, you had 50 things you were supposed to accomplish before you even got up this morning. You are perpetually running in the negative for mental energy, sleep and probably sex. You eat leftover highchair remains standing up (if you eat at all) and compare your productivity levels […]
