This is what my evening looked like last night. 'Tis the season to snuggle by the fireplace with a glass of wine in one hand and sharpie in the other, ready to circle all the items that I have on my pile of Christmas wish lists. Lucky for me, the Best Buy Black Friday Sale flyer was a whopping 24 pages long and chock full of great deals!

The Future looks fine with the Future of Play
I'm always excited to see what's new in the world of toys and there's no better time than Christmas to really see what's out there for the little ones. I find that boys toys really stand the test of time, as some of the same toys my brother played with growing up, my own boys are playing with now. But toys are definitely getting more and more advanced and I'm hoping my non-techy brain can still figure them out as they evolve! I'm sure my boys will have them all figured out way before me though! … [Read more...]

A friend suggested Hexbugs and another chimed in that her boys really liked them too so I knew we were on to something. That year they received a Hexbug habitat and loved it, in fact, just the other day they had it out to play with again and realized … [Read more...]

Make it Magical with Indigo
The Christmas holidays are creeping closer and closer and while I know my boys have one thing on their mind - PRESENTS, for me it's something else entirely. Mom's tend to know that the real magic of Christmas is that sigh..... at the end. When the shopping list is completely scratched off and the baking is complete and decorations are hung. Sigh....Now the holidays can start, because we get to slooooooow down and take it all in. We can smile each day as the kids open the remaining doors of their … [Read more...]
