I have been fortunate to attend a few shows at the Ensemble Theatre over the past years. The last two were “Alice in Wonderland” and “Snow White” and my girls loved them both. So when I had the chance to see this year’s “Around the World in 80 Days” I was a definite yes. I
Thoughts and/or Observations and/or Lessons Learned From Taking a Segway Tour: Use your online deal way before it expires. LOTS of people book tours the last two weeks of a pre-purchased coupon expiring (duh).

The Old West Festival is back! Some of you may recall that we discovered the Old West Festival last fall and our kids had a blast. It was so much fun and I definitely looked forward to it returning this year. However, I did not expect to help promote it and now I am! Here

Andy was gone all weekend and we needed something fun and different to occupy our Sunday morning. So I surprised the kids by putting them right into the car when they got up and headed straight to Stan the Donut Man. Each kid carefully picked out the perfect donut, grabbed a milk carton and got

It’s the second day of spring = woo-hoo! It’s 29 degrees here and snowing…give me a break! My flip flops are crying because they really want to be used again. And I am sick of layering, layering, layering and having to put on a coat. Enough already! Unfortunately, the weather for the weekend here looks
Fall is one of my favorite seasons. I love the weather, the outdoors, the colors of the leaves, the sunflowers, and pumpkin everything! One of my favorite things to do is to visit a farm for fall activities and a trip to the pumpkin patch. This year we headed out to Blooms and Berries once
