Wow, what a year this has been for me on and offline. I can’t imagine that 2010 will even compare but I’d be tickled if it did. When I first started blogging, I never expected to fall in love with it like I did. I never expected to find myself blessed with the [...]

For this holiday season, Walmart and Dreamworks worked together to create  a special family movie, Merry Madagascar, starring all of your favorite characters from the first two Madagascar movies, as well as a line of licensed characters, pajamas, snacks and more!

A little yeehaw, yayhoo, and hoodoggies are in order for this year’s western gift guide! Talk about some great submissions into this year’s gift guide!

When I was growing up, there was one book that always stood out to me; The Lion, The Witch , and The Wardrobe. Isn’t it funny what stays with you? I mean, of all books I’ve read, THAT one has stayed with me. It’s the magical wonder and wild imagination thing I suppose. [...]

First let me say that I was overwhelmed with all the gift ideas I received this year which makes it extremely hard to narrow it down to just a few but I did get it done.  I chose items based on uniqueness, functionality, style, and practicality.  I think with the economy like it is, most [...]
