One of the best things about staying in a hotel (well, besides all of that free ice) is trying out the cute travel-sized bath products. These little pint-sized toiletries are some of my favorite “souvenirs,” especially when they are Disney-inspired. You can’t help but have a happy day when your shampoo is sporting a pair […]
Summer 2013: Theme Park Christian Music Festivals
Theme parks provide thrilling rides and fun times for the whole family. They also offer some fun extras such as concerts and shows. Most parks put on a music festival or two throughout the season. I’ll be updating this page as I hear of new festivals and events, so check back often. Rock the Universe […]
Wear sunscreen and become the ‘ultimate fun family’ with Banana Boat and Great Wolf Lodge
As a fun-in-the-sun aficionado, I am a strong proponent of the use of sunscreen. And lots of it. My child doesn’t leave the house or head to the beach without being slathered or sprayed with a pound of sunscreen. Since summer is a the time that many families join together to have fun and make […]
SeaWorld designs new cup with the concept of reducing, reusing and recycling
I have more theme park-branded mugs, bottles and tumblers than any one person really needs. If it is in cup form and I can refill it for .99, or free (free is always good), I will be the first one to pull out my wallet. For anybody as addicted to the concept of the refillable […]
‘Blog Every Day in May’ day 9: A Moment in my Day
I am back for day nine (well, technically it’s day two for me, but I’m not into technicalities so ignore that). Today’s topic is “a moment in my day.” Since “a moment” is a pretty relative term, I’m going to share a really cute flowering plant I found for Mother’s Day. This will be the […]

Putting the Pedal to the Metal
I rarely make New Year’s resolutions (due to the fact that I rarely keep New Year’s resolutions), but this year I decided to go ahead and do it. In addition to the “exercise more and eat less” ones, I made a concrete one that I actually stand a chance of completing. It also puts me closer […]
Luck, LeSportsac and the Artistic Flair of Mary Blair
Recently, I entered one of those Facebook giveaways. You know the drill, you comment, like or share in order to get a chance at some sort of a prize. I do this stuff all the time (sorry FB feed friends). Well, this time I actually won. No, I don’t know how many others entered. I […]
Have a Blast with Snoopy and friends at Kings Dominion’s Planet Snoopy
Not since the days of Hanna-Barbera has Kings Dominion seen such a colorful collection of characters and family-sized fun. The multi-million dollar expansion known as Planet Snoopy covers almost 14-acres and is the largest PEANUTS™-themed children’s area in the world. With a total of 18 rides, some re-themed from the former line-up and some completely new to the […]
Spread the Good: Voluntourism with Universal Orlando and Give Kids the World
One of the many benefits of my job as a writer is that I get to share news, events and attractions with others. A lot of the activities and events are things that I actually do myself, but an equal amount involves just getting the word out about good things that are going on, whether […]
