I’ve loved Cirque du Soleil for as long as I can remember. I’ve seen shows like “Mystere” in Las Vegas, “Delirium” in Minneapolis years ago and their Christmas show “Holidaze” a couple years ago. Every show is absolutely breathtaking. My favorite scene so far is “One Love” from Delirium, but they all have blown me […]
5 Things My Kids (and I) Love about Goldfish Swim School in Oakdale
My kids love being in the water, but getting them to take swimming lessons – and enjoy them – has been more difficult than I expected. When my daughter was a toddler, I signed her up for lessons through a local community education program. The lessons were ok, but she never enjoyed them. The water […]
My Experience with a Clothes Mentor Personal Shopper #CMStyle
I had the most fun experience at Clothes Mentor in Minnetonka, a women’s boutique that sells high quality, gently used women’s apparel and accessories for a fraction of the original price!

Snip-Its Haircuts for Kids in Maple Grove (Our Review)
I was recently invited to bring my kids to try out Snip-Its Haircuts for Kids in Maple Grove. I had never heard of Snip-its before, and I was curious about how my kids would like it (plus their hair was starting to get a wee bit shaggy!), so this past week I brought them in for some […]

My 10 Favorite Deals for Moms (& Kids!) at Gordmans
This winter in Minnesota has been unseasonably mild and…odd. We were outside for a family walk without jackets just a couple weekends ago, then we had cold days, then more mild days, some crazy wind, and then yesterday, tornadoes, followed by some short-lived snow overnight. What the heck, Minnesota? So…I’ve decided that winter’s DONE (woohoo!), […]
