Halloween is right around the corner, but with COVID this year is going to be different. I know there are people who are comfortable taking their kids trick-or-treating; however, my husband and I are not. Instead we are going to be throwing the kids a Halloween party. Halloween is on a Saturday, which means I…
I cannot believe DJ is officially five. I don’t know where the time has gone. It feels like just yesterday I was holding a brand new newborn in my arms. Now he’s a big boy. I am so proud of everything he’s learned and done in the last five years. DJ’s 5th birthday party was…
My family and I recently spent a weekend at the Westgate Resort and Casino here in Las Vegas. I was nervous at first with everything going on. However, after I saw their WestgateCARES program I knew we’d be safe staying. Honestly, we needed a good Vegas staycation. It’s been several anxiety filled months. We…
Last October, before COVID-19, my family drove from Las Vegas to New York. We rented a mini-van, and piled 4 adults and two young children inside. It took us three nights on the way there, and four nights on the way back. It was different then I thought it would be, but one thing that…

Mother’s Day is coming up, but we’re all still going to be under stay at home orders. This makes the flowers, massage gifts cards, and nail salon gift cards not really possible at the moment. I wanted to put together a Mother’s Day gift guide that could be easily bought off Amazon. I’m hoping that…
I’m back with another family friendly Las Vegas post. These are some of my favorite things to write about, because this is my city. Things are a bit crazy now with COVID-19, and I’m sure when the next time I’ll be able to post one these. Black Bear Diner is one of my favorite places…
We are around a month away from Easter, and I figured it was time to start looking into outfits for DJ and Brooklyn. However, with everything that’s been going on with the coronavirus I decided that I’m going to my shopping online. I compiled a list of six easter outfits for little kids for you….
I haven’t done a post in my family friend Las Vegas series in a while. I’m really excited to jump back into it. I am a part of the Uptown Mom Squad which makes me an Uptown Jungle ambassador. That means that I am lucky enough to have been given a Family Membership to Uptown…
