One of our friends introduced us to Pass the Pigs at a family game night several years ago. We had so much fun playing it, I went right out the very next day and bought the game. So when I got the chance to partner with Winning Moves Games to talk about the newest version, Pass the Pigs Big Pigs, I couldn't pass it up. If you have never played Pass the Pigs, I am SO excited to be the person to introduce you to this game. It's ridiculously ...

When I Was Little, I Wanted To Be a Cowgirl
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Famous Footwear for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine. When I was little, I wanted to be a cowgirl. I wore my cowboy boots and hat all the time. I thought I was the real deal. Thanks to my hat and boots, I looked the part. All that was missing from the picture was a horse! Growing up, I never had the chance to learn to ride a horse. My childhood dream of becoming a cowgirl eventually ...

Make Your Family Trip Fun with Disney/Pixar’s Finding Dory
This post is brought to you by Disney/Pixar. All opinions are my own. The most important thing to know about travel with kids is to simply go with the flow. If you can swing that, you'll save yourself a ton of stress. Of course, a little advance planning helps a lot, but don't plan on all your plans going exactly as planned...and be okay with that. As my favorite blue tang Dory says, "Just Keep Swimming." Dory has been all over the world, ...

Tips For Freezing OREO Cookies
Now is a great time to stock up on OREO cookies. OREO coupons plus Ibotta cash back means you pay just $1.98 for a package of OREO cookies at Walmart! My family loves to eat OREO cookies any time of year, but they are the key ingredient in our Thanksgiving OREO cookie turkeys. Plus, we always set out a plate of OREO cookies for Santa Claus on Christmas Eve (see below for photos.) I like to save money, especially at the holidays, so I am ...

Strange Unusual Gross & Cool Animals (Animal Planet Book) Review
My kids love to read non-fiction books with cool facts and real photography. We received a review copy of Animal Planet Strange, Unusual, Gross & Cool Animals by Charles Ghigna, which is a huge hit with them. Although the book is recommended for ages 8-12, kids and adults of all ages will be fascinated by the animal photos. You simply won't believe it til you see it. There are some really strange creatures roaming the Earth! [Tweet ...
Daylight Savings Time ENDS Soon (Change Your Clock, Change Your Batteries)
Daylight Savings Time ends soon! It's officially over on Sunday, November 6 at 2am. Don't forget to SET YOUR CLOCKS BACK one hour. I have partnered with Energizer® to spread the word about the Change Your Clock, Change Your Batteries program - now in its 29th year of keeping families and homes safe. I think the Autumn time change is the best because it adds a whole extra hour to our weekend. YAY! How will you spend your extra hour? I hope ...
