Chicago Vacation :: For Spring Break 2014 we took the kids to Chicago for three nights and four days. We crammed as much fun as we could into those four days and had adventures all over the Windy City. I’m going to share our adventures with you in a series of installments so you can...
Another Monday, another Menu Plan! Check it out, do some pinning and then comment below and tell me what’s cooking at your house! Summer is full of pool dinners for us, because I just love going to the pool for dinner and wearing the kids out so they fall right to sleep when we get...
Disney Junior Live will be rolling into Cincinnati in just a few weeks and they are bringing Pirates and Princesses along for the show! If your little one is a fan of Jake from Neverland or Princess Sofia you are not going to want to miss this show! I have a family four pack of...
The Kenton County Public Library just kicked off a brand new (FREE) program for families at the Covington location: Camp Wonderopolis. Camp Wonderopolis is running for six weeks, from July 9th until August 13th 2014. It is a great way for families to come together and learn about science. The night that we attended we...
Kocanut Joe’s Frozen Yogurt has a new product on the market, just in time for these hot summer days! They now make frozen yogurt popsicles! Since our family is a friend of KoJo’s and I’m always promoting them on social media we were given a few popsicles to take for a test drive. We were...
Did you enjoy that long holiday weekend? We had a very busy and fun-filled weekend, we went on bike rides, visited the Loveland Castle, had a family game night, spent time at the pool with friends, went to the Northside Parade, had a cookout with family to celebrate the 4th and visited cousins on their...

Every year our family explores at least one of Kentucky’s State Parks, and this year our mini-vacation was at General Butler State Resort Park in Carrollton, Kentucky. The park is a little less than an hour away from our home in Northern Kentucky, which made for a nice and easy drive. We spent three days...
The Northside 4th of July Parade is one of the most unique and eclectic parades in town. It’s my favorite thing to do on the 4th of July! The kids and I enjoyed the parade today and then spent the afternoon at the Rock N Roll Carnival frolicking on the playground, watching the skaters and...
Breakfast time can be a slap-dash mess at my house. I feel like an under-paid waitress in a diner filled with grouchy customers in the mornings. It’s all I can do to throw cereal bowls in front of them and get them out the door on time! I’d rather be offering them a variety of...
We took a drive down the picturesque Route 8 last week to Giles Conrad Park in Boone County for a little bike riding. Giles Conrad is a great little park that has bike trails that run alongside of the Ohio River, so the views are gorgeous. There’s also a playground,fitness stations, soccer fields, and a creek...
