This summer we had a blast for our girls getaway to celebrate my sister’s 40th birthday. She lives near Albuquerque, so that’s where we met up. Coming in just a few weeks is the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta, so I wanted ya’ll to know about a few places you might want to add to your […]

Date Night at Red Robin
After days of playing chauffeur to 4 kiddos, and the hubby working hard, we were so due for a date night this weekend. We had recently taken the family to Red Robin, which is a family favorite, but we thought why not go for a date night? We just brought the old 1967 Nova up […]
Feed 4 for $40 with Buca di Beppo Promo
The first time I ever visited a Buca di Beppo was for the rehearsal dinner for my brother’s wedding. We thought the restaurant was so fun – hundreds of unique photos and statues, the single table that seats guests amidst all the action in the kitchen, and then the fantastic food! Before I go on […]
Fun Family Dining Activities at Red Robin
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Red Robin. All opinions are 100% mine. It’s no secret that I like to eat out. To have someone else prepare a delicious meal, clean up after me and the kids, and to serve me and keep my beverage refilled, is a nice way […]
The Perfect Universal Orlando Vacation
It’s no secret that I like to have some serious fun at theme parks. Each of my 4 kids feel the same way, but my husband can take it or leave it. He doesn’t like crowds or long lines. When I told him we’d be visiting the Wizarding World of Harry Potter (yes, he is […]
South Lake Tahoe Getaway: The Perfect Northern California Spring Weekend
I’m not a spur of the moment kind of girl, especially when it comes to vacations. But when this last minute South Lake Tahoe getaway came up I didn’t even think about it, I just said “Yes!” It turned out to be one of the best mini-vacations I’ve ever been on, and I’m now fully […]
Beach Town Dining and Honeymooning in Carmel by the Sea
I can never visit Carmel enough! Such a quiet and quaint town by the West Coast, but what I love about Carmel is that it isn’t the typical grungy beach town. It is so homey, and filled with adorable shops, people walking their dogs, and delicious food. On my latest trip to Carmel by the […]
Filling My Belly with Good Eats in New Orleans
I have always wanted to go on an eating tour of some big city with great food. I feel like I practically did just that in New Orleans. It wasn’t an official eating tour, but we went to so many fantastic restaurants, that made it feel like we were eating our way through the city. […]
Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Good Eats in Conejo Valley
A couple of years ago I made a goal to really explore the state I live in. I have always been intrigued by travel, and have quite the list of places I’d like to visit. One day it dawned on me that I live in California, and there is truly so much to be seen […]
Family Dining and SF Tourism at Bistro Boudin
The Christmas season is busy; there’s no denying it. The burnout that can come after Christmas can be even worse, but of course it’s nothing a night on the city can’t fix. Our family loves San Francisco, and we take every chance we get to visit. Stopping in for dinner at the Bistro Boudin proved to be the […]
