Family Night Out At The Circus

When I think circus, I recall many fond childhood memories. I think of the cotton candy, the face painting, and of course the dazzling entertainment. I love being able to relive these memories now with a family of my own. We attended the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey® Presents Circus XTREME and enjoyed a night full of excitement!

Honestly, I Prefer Honest Tea!

Now that Spring has officially decided to stay, that calls for refreshments! Some might go for the nearest soda or surgary filled juice, but honestly… I reach for Honest Tea! I love the selection that Honest Tea has to offer. One of my favorite drinks has to be the Half and Half. Yes, I love a cool, refreshing Honest Tea beverage over any soda, any day!

Six Flags America~ 2016 Season!

We had a blast this past weekend at Six Flags America! Not only did we have a great Easter, we made a whole weekend of it by attending a fun PEEPS egg hunt at the Six Flags America park. The park is open all spring break long from March 25th- April 3rd. There is so much to do and fun to be had for everyone!

The Wizard Of Oz is Coming To DC!

“We’re off to see…” The most magical adventure of them all. The Wizard Of Oz is coming to the National Theatre May 3- May 15th! We love this classic tale and can’t wait to see it live!

Safeway Easter Specials

I love getting together for the holidays with friends and family. Sometimes that can be a big affair and sometimes it is just the five of us. Either way, big or small, Safeway has all that you need to entertain your guests this Easter!

Ghirardelli~ There’s A New Bunny In Town!

Easter & Spring Break = Chocolate! Am I right or am I right? I love getting some sweet chocolate Easter goodies just as much as my kids do! This year, Ghirardelli has expanded their Easter lineup with three new chocolate bunnies – a 3.5oz Hollow Chocolate Bunny, a Milk Chocolate Caramel Bunny, and a Solid Milk Chocolate Bunny. Trust me when I say that they are all delicious… you really can’t go wrong!

Six Flags America ~ Opens March 25th!

  Six Flags America is ready to open on March 25 as the closest destination for Spring Break fun. This is the beginning of a season full of surprises for thrill-seekers and the entire family. Guests will be delighted to discover the largest addition of new experiences in more than a decade.

Snack Healthy with Wonderful Halos

In addition to sweet treats, I like to balance our Easter Basket out and include some activities and healthy snacks. One of our family’s most consumed snacks are the small, sweet, Wonderful Halos! The delicious mandarin oranges are the perfect addition to any Easter basket, snack time, or school lunch.
