We took the kids to Rail to Trails last week when the weather was so nice.  It’s a great place to walk. I think if you walk the entire trail it’s 4 miles (then 4 back) We went 1 mile out and 1 back. The kids LOVE being out in the woods! Don’t mind the quality [...]

On Friday, I was on Facebook and noticed that HersheyPark posted on their Facebook status that Yo Gabba Gabba would be there Sunday. Huh? I looked around everywhere online and couldn’t find any other information about this. We already had plans on Sunday to go to Knoebels, but the chance to see Yo Gabba Gabba [...]

I want to start off by telling you a little about the company. Conceived in 2006, Tegu is fairly new. They started with a mission to help Honduras by creating a wooden toy company that uses the beautiful hardwoods and employs the wonderful people of that country.

We went to HersheyPark again on Friday. This was the first time Juliet ever went on rides by herself! I was nervous but she did great Out of curiosity, how old were your kids when you let them go on rides alone?    Jake and Ed was on the front seat of  Fahrenheit (the second steepest [...]

Jacob’s father plays guitar in a band and they were playing at Knoebels this past weekend. Little Juliet was sick with a cold (again!) so she stayed home with her daddy while I took Jake to the park. I didn’t get to take a whole lot of pictures, because for most of the day it [...]

I’m so sorry that I’m backed up on emails and such. Things have been so busy around here, but since most of you are moms  I’m sure you understand! Well Juliet’s front teeth couldn’t be saved. The poor thing is going to have to go without her four top front teeth until her adult ones [...]

My little baby turned 2! I guess she’s no longer a baby, but a toddler instead. Sigh…. These past 2 years went by so fast! Isn’t it strange how time goes so slow when you are a kid, but just flies by when you grow up? Weird isn’t it? Anyway, if you know me then you [...]
