Giant Bicycles_Logo

The following post is sponsored by Giant Bicycles USA. All opinions are my own. My parents bought my daughter a bicycle many years ago for her birthday. It was one of those “grow with you” type of bikes that you get at a big box store, where it comes with training wheels & then as your child gets older, you can remove the training wheels when your kid is ready.

Covey Logo

This post is part of a campaign sponsored by Covey App. All opinions are my own. You know that saying, it takes a village to raise a child. I believe that same village is needed to help support & lift up parents. That village can come in the form of family, friends and/or neighbors. Fortunately when my daughter was born, my husband & I had family to lean on; however, I didn’t have close friends nearby who had children the same age as … [Read more...]

Oaks at Ojai - Signage

**Update: After 40 years, The Oaks at Ojai has closed its doors.** Ojai is a charming town known for its scenic beauty, great hiking trails & pedestrian-friendly downtown area filled with art galleries, cafes & restaurants. It’s an easy drive, about 90 minutes north of the San Fernando Valley. With all of the back-to-school craziness behind me, I thought it would be really fun to visit The Oaks at Ojai. The Oaks is an award-winning … [Read more...]
