When we do go on our next trip, we will be bringing this fun beach kit with us! The Daddy & Co.™ Beach Kit is perfect … [Read more...]

Care Bears Love to Learn – App Review

Posted on July 5, 2014 | Filed Under: Books | Tags: Care Bears Love to Learn, educational app, iPad, tech game | 4 Comments

My daughter loves playing with her dad's iPad. I try to make sure she balances electronic entertainment with reading (an actual book, not on a tablet), playing with her toys & going on play dates with friends. Believe it or not, she's been on an actual play date (both at our home & at her friend's house), where she's asked "Can we play with the iPad?" Sigh... Enter the new Care Bears Love to Learn app which is the first early learning … [Read more...]

My One Year Blogging Anniversary

Posted on July 2, 2014 | Filed Under: Misc | Tags: blogiversary, Disney On the Road, social media, virtual assistant | 7 Comments

Last Wednesday (June 25th) was my one year blogiversary. Interestingly enough, I had spent that day surrounded by fellow bloggers at the Disney On-the-Road Celebration event in Scottsdale, Arizona. It was such an inspiring day! I learned a lot & I'm so glad that I made the trek from CA to AZ. (Recap will be posted on the blog at a later date.) It was during the drive from LA with my parents & young daughter that made me contemplate … [Read more...]

A couple of Mondays ago, I had the opportunity to meet Alison Sweeney at Duff’s Cakemix in Los Angeles.

You probably know Alison from her various TV show credits, such as The Biggest Loser or Days of Our Lives. I had been to Duff’s Cakemix before, having taken my daughter to decorate cupcakes over Spring … [Read more...]

Posted on June 7, 2014 | Filed Under: Books, Pop Culture | Tags: Back in the World, British singer/songwriter, David Gray, Mutineers | Leave a Comment

The following post is sponsored by One2One Network. All opinions are 100% my own. I'm always on the hunt for new music by different artists. I love listening to music in the car (especially when I am stuck in LA traffic), while I am working out & at home when I am cleaning, answering emails or trying to write out my latest blog post. :) David Gray is an artist from the UK who came on the scene in the late 90's with his big hit … [Read more...]
