Single moms have some serious standards for potential mates and partners. What are those standards? The answer can be summed up with: loving our kids. There is nothing more precious in our lives than our children, and we are the ones who set the example for them. We don’t date the failing personalities, or sleazy bar […]
During our winter family vacation, we booked a trip and traveled to Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya. Everything about it looked amazing, and as a bonus, we had credit to use toward excursions. After reading flyers, we decided to venture to Tulum for a half-day tour, as well as a full-day trip on Isla Mujeres. […]
When you think of a fourth birthday party, you may think of Chuckie Cheese, Paw Patrol, pizza, and a lot of kids. This year we opted out of the typical birthday party and asked my son what he wanted to do. Now, he is not the average child. He asks to go on a vacation […]
We aim to do at least one International or big vacation each year, and to wrap up 2016, we ventured to Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya in Puerto Aventuras, Mexico. We first heard about the resort from a commercial, which spotlighted the kid-friendliness and beauty of this all-inclusive resort. Located about an hour from Cancun, […]
If there is one thing I miss about Michigan, it’s the food. From Detroit-style pizza to Greektown in Detroit, there are numerous places that you start craving as soon as you leave the state. Recently I went back for a visit and went to some of my favorite places. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to visit […]
It’s New Year’s Eve, Eve and many of us will be diving into family plans and reflecting on our life in 2016. Sadly, lots of terrible stuff happened. Dozens of American Icons passed away and the number of families spending more time in front of their mobile devices, than with one another, is increasing. Let […]
You did the research, booked the ticket, and are now left with the worry of how to fly with a toddler. I’ve been there. How will my toddler sit still for 4 hours when he can’t even sit still for a whole episode of Paw Patrol? After multiple flights with my son, I’ve learned some […]
The first time I traveled with my son by airplane, he was 3 months old. Traveling on a 4 hours flight, plus the extra 2 hours before the flight meant I had to pack a pretty large diaper bag. Diapers, pacifiers, formula (please, no judgement), bottles, burp cloths, blankets, and anything else necessary was packed […]
Motherhood is by far one of the biggest emotional roller coasters I’ve ever been apart of. I’m constantly questioning myself. “Am I a good mom?” “Will Fox think I’m good enough?” “Am I doing this whole parenting thing right, wrong?” Will he be able to love me when he gets older? The answer is yes. […]
The greatest thing about living in the Phoenix Valley is the fact there are so many different things to do. Not just for families and couples, but friends who enjoy local music scenes and handcrafted cocktails. I’ve personally curated a list of ten things to do over the next 10 or 12 days that will […]
Just south of Ocean Beach, San Diego, California lies a place where you can reach a state of serenity, solitude, and peace. A place where you realize that you are just a small person in this big world. A place where you forget about your problems and realize the beauty in this world that we […]
When you think about traveling your mind automatically goes to some extravagant trip, right? I used to as well until I began to look for more budget friendly weekend adventures.
