Last night we had the privilege of taking our girls (and Talon, although he slept the entire time) to the Opening Night of Disney On Ice: Princess Wishes!  And, oh boy, that show certainly did not disappoint! Of course princesses were definitely in abundance as we entered Van Andel Arena.  Pretty much every little girl [...]

So far I have managed to keep my girls in the dark that we are going to the Disney On Ice: Princess Wishes show.  It’s been hard though!  Every time they see the commercial on tv they sit in awe.  I cannot wait to see the looks on their faces when we walk into Van [...]

I’m a bit late on announcing the winners for the giveaways that closed this week but I have a very good reason.  I took a nap.  A NAP!  I never nap and yesterday seemed like a great day to take one.  And it felt good.  And my kids napped at the same time so I [...]
