Birthdays are a big deal around here and even more so when it's a jumping good time. A Sky Zone birthday party sounds just perfectly dandy. We love to visit the trampoline park near us but have yet to do a party there. That doesn't mean we won't be doing one in the future! Perhaps we will do a family party of sorts at Sky Zone. Let's get real... I say it's always a good time to have a party. So View Post
5 Reasons To See The Moana Movie
It's time. The Moana movie is NOW finally here! I've been waiting and waiting to be able to tell you my thoughts on this gem. If you follow me on Instagram then you know that we saw the movie a while ago. I was just under strict orders to not tell you anything about it so I didn't. This movie was kept top secret and for good reason. Oh you guys. It's such a darling movie. Seriously. Gives you all View Post
Doctor Strange In 3D: A Gotta See
On Tuesday night the audiologist man and I attended an advanced movie screening of Doctor Strange in 3D. Friends, he was so excited to see this movie. I was excited to be able to take him to it, but honestly I knew nothing about the storyline. Truth be told I've never even picked up a comic book. Please don't tell Stan Lee. It's just never been my thing before but perhaps it should be because the View Post

Jackie Robinson Contracts At Busch Stadium
Last night the audiologist man and I witnessed history at the St. Louis Cardinals vs. Mets game. We saw a treasured piece of American history. The history that broke the color barrier in baseball.

Lines of people formed to view the contracts containing the View Post
How To Beat The Heat With Pete’s Dragon
You guys. It's hot outside. Like really, really hot. We gotta beat the heat these last few days before school starts, right? There's not much time left!

Things To Do In St Louis: Trains
What is it with little boys and trains? It seems like every little boy I have ever met is transfixed by trains. Okay not just trains I guess. Anything that transports really. And not just any type of transportation. Transportation that goes really fast. I'm talking trains, planes, and automobiles. Both of my boys especially love the variety that rides on the rails. Be it the sound of the View Post
Melanoma Hope Network Fundraiser
Did you know that May is Melanoma Awareness Month? It is. I think that it's quite fitting for the month before summer to be the one to raise much needed awareness for melanoma. In another month or so people all over will be enjoying the outdoors and many will NOT be wearing sunscreen. Perhaps they already are. There have already been a few warm and sunny days here in St. Louis. Do you wear View Post

How would I learn where I could eat? Well the answer is yes I can still eat View Post
