My 5 Favorite New Shows on Disney+

I am living for Disney+ right now! The nostalgic content is incredible, but honestly the new shows are blowing me away. I think there is so much to dig into with the new content. I wanted to share my personal favorites with you! 

Christmas On The Potomac 2019 ~ Family Favorites

There is so much family fun to be had at the Gaylord National Resort! My family spent a full day enjoying all of the 2019 holiday festivities, and I wanted to share our favorites with you! 

Try Something New with Green Eggs and Ham!

Would you, could you, try something new? We had a watch party and enjoyed the delicious and cute themed kids meals from Subway. Have you seen Netflix’s new, Ellen DeGeneres-produced Green Eggs and Ham (GEAH) Original Series? It is so cute and a ton of fun to watch as a family. To celebrate the Dr. Seuss classic, Subway is offering their Fresh Fit for Kids meal featuring delicious Shamrock Farms® milk, branded with your favorite GEAH characters through the end of the year. My daughter was excited to see these characters on the milk and box! 

Important Lessons Families Can Learn from Frozen 2

I love a good sequel. Ever since I left the theater after seeing Frozen, I knew there was going to be more magic and adventure from these sisters. I, along with the rest of the world, have been eagerly awaiting the long anticipated sequel. Frozen 2 delivers even more magic, laugh out loud moments, unforgettable songs, and lessons all of us can learn from. I have to say I love Frozen 2 just as much as, if not more than the first one. See what important lesson families can learn from Frozen 2, and what the cast has to say… Read More

RENT – A Must See at The National Theatre

My daughter and I share a love for musicals. It is such a joy to sing along to our favorite songs, and when we get the chance to go to see a musical, it’s really special! I was so excited to surprise my daughter with a night out to see RENT the Musical at the National Theatre!

Lady and the Tramp Review & Cast Interviews

To know this classic story, is to love this classic story. When I heard that a live action Lady and the Tramp was coming to Disney+, I was excited to see it! I love animal movies and I love how Disney can bring these stories to a new light with live action. Lady and the Tramp was endearing, heartwarming, and inspiring! 

Noelle is a New Christmas Classic!

Anything involving Anna Kendrick and Bill Hader is going to be a good thing. I had really high expectations for a silly, fun-loving Christmas movie, but what I saw went way deeper than that, and I cried buckets you guys! I was really touched by the message of this film, and the truly heartfelt stories that took place. 

Playing With Fire-A Funny Family Movie!

I love a movie that my whole family can enjoy together. Sometimes you just need a good belly laugh, and that is exactly what Playing With Fire did for me and my family, we all laughed a lot. It’s a sweet story sandwiched in between a heartfelt message of family values and priorities. 

Trick-or-Treat at Hersheypark In The Dark!

Did you know Hersheypark is a 4 season park? Not only can you enjoy the fun of spring and summer, but there is also something sweet to see and do in the fall and winter too! My family and I went to our first ever Hersheypark in the Dark experience and it was full of silly & spooky fun!

Is Maleficent Mistress Of Evil Kid Friendly?

In Maleficent Mistress of Evil, we see where the story of Aurora, Prince Philip, and Maleficent left off. Is is happily ever after? Not quite. To say that Maleficent is less than pleased to hear of Aurora’s engagement and at the idea of combining kingdoms is an understatement. Afterall, Maleficent is still seen as a dark and evil creature. So what happens next?
