I've known so many little boys who go through the "thomas" phase where they are completely obsessed with anything and everything Thomas the train. I can't really blame them, as Thomas is a really cute show that is really gentle and kid friendly even for tiny toddlers. Kidtoons is a company that promotes super family friendly films at a variety of movie theaters across the US. Kidtoons has one movie per month, and this months movie is Thomas and Friends Day of the Diesels. Diesel 10 has an evil Read more [...]

*Caution - the links in this blog post lead to an adult website. Staycations are so popular right now - nobody can afford to travel very far so instead they just vacation in their own city. If you can have just as much fun around home, why spend the extra cash? Why not continue the trend and stay home on dates instead of having a night on the town? This time of year there's not much to do on a date anyway other than go to dinner or go to the theater. Instead, why not spend the money at edenfantasys Read more [...]

I have tons of clothes, but somehow I wound up not having nearly as many dresses as I'd like. I was happy to set up a review of the oblique v dress from horny toad. Horny toad is an online retailer for men and womens sustainable clothing such as organic cotton. I selected the oblique v dress in brick for review, in a size small. The material is tencel cotton and spandex which makes it soft and stretchy. Due to the stretchy nature of the item, I wish I had ordered a size up as it clings in areas such Read more [...]

It's that time of year again and Christmas is right around the corner. Last year was the first year that Ryan & I had a Christmas tree, so we hadn't done decorations or ornaments in the years before that. Last year we bought a mixed box of round colored ornaments, but the tree felt plain without all the random, extra ornaments as well. But, we didn't want to run out and buy 30 different ornament's, it seems like ornaments are suppose to be a collection of years past. So, I've made it a goal to Read more [...]

So, when she heard that happy feet two is due to be released this month she was super excited. There is also a wii game that is about to be released, called happy feet Read more [...]
