Quick, easy, and delicious appetizer for NYE? Chec Quick, easy, and delicious appetizer for NYE? Check!

After the year we’ve had I wanted appetizers that were not only easy, but extremely delicious. I was able to make fish & chips for my family of six in 10 minutes in my air fryer. I used @gortonsseafood beer battered fish fillets and it’s a huge hit.

I love Gorton’s because they use 100% wild caught fish. In addition, they’re fish is a great source of protein.

happy birthday in heaven They say time heals all happy birthday in heaven

They say time heals all wounds, but I know this is one thing that I will never truly heal from. This is my stepdad’s, who I consider my actual dad, 13th birthday in heaven. It never gets an easier. There are so many things that he missed. He never saw me graduate high school. He never met my husband. He never saw me get married or got to walk me down the aisle. He never met his grandchildren. There are so many thing I wish I could say to him, but I never will be able to. It hurts my soul knowing he was made to be a grandfather, but never got to meet DJ & Brooklyn.

Happy 73rd birthday Dennis. I love & miss you.

merry christmas eve I hope everyone has a great merry  christmas eve

I hope everyone has a great Christmas Eve today if you celebrate. I didn’t celebrate on Christmas Eve until I met my husband. Now instead of one day we get to celebrate for two.

What are you doing for Christmas Eve?

Thank you @cinemapoplv for making our first movie Thank you @cinemapoplv for making our first movie theater experience magical.

Personally, my family is a long way off from being able to take our kids to the movies. Add on top of that the fact we are in the middle of a pandemic. That’s why this was the perfect experience. They provided a huge 14 ft screen with any movie of our choice. In addition, they provided all the snacks and drinks. Their package is for up to 10 people.

DJ has already asked me multiple times in the last few days since we did it when we can do it again. That should show you how amazing it was!

I can’t wait for the weather to get nicer to do it again, but this time outside!

    5 COVID Safe Things to do this Halloween Season in Las Vegas

    October 19, 2020 /

    We are in the midst of Halloween season; however, this year is much different from normal. Usually, I’m getting ready to go to trunk or treats during the month, and trick or treating on Halloween night. Halloween is even on a Saturday this year. I figured it would be a long day of on and off trick or treating. Unfortunately, COVID is still a problem. In addition, we have a few high risk people in our family to worry about. I wanted to find some things we could do that are still safe to participate in.  We will be skipping trick or treating all together. I won’t even be handing…

    5 Halloween Books to Read with Your Kids

    September 29, 2020 /

    TI have rounded up five Halloween books for you to read with your kids just like yesterday’s six cute Halloween movies. All of these books are available in a physical book and on Kindle Unlimited. Personally, I love a good mix of physical books and on my Kindle app. These books are geared for kids from as little as two up until ten. Hopefully you find a book on here to read with your child, niece, nephew, etc. 5 Halloween Books for Kids Corduroy’s Best Halloween Ever by Jean Palmer At the Old Haunted House by Helen Ketteman When the Clock Strikes on Halloween by Lisa Ferland Sammy’s Spooktacular Halloween by…

    6 Cute Halloween Movies to Watch with Your Kids This Fall

    Halloween is right around the corner! Once it is October I will be playing Halloween movies and shorts non-stop for DJ and Brooklyn. There are plenty of Halloween movies that are way too scary for kids. In addition, the Halloween movies for kids are scattered through all different platforms. I wanted to compile a list of six cute Halloween movies for you to watch with the kids in your life. I’ve linked them to exactly where you can watch them. You’ll find these movies on Netflix, Disney+, and Amazon Prime. I have watched all of these movies over the years, and they are all so adorable. 6 Cute Halloween Movies…

    Things to Help Keep You in the Halloween Spirit

    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 have an entire day to fill with fun stuff. I figured there are other people like me and my husband. That is why I compiled a list of things to help keep you in the Halloween spirit this year. There is a good mix of snacks, decor, crafts, and even party ideas. Things to Help…

    Rice Creeper Treats

    September 14, 2020 /

    DJ recently had his 5th birthday party, and it was Minecraft themed. One of the snacks that I made for the birthday party I named Rice Creeper Treats. They were pretty simple to make, and were such a huge hit. I wanted to share them with you to make for a Minecraft loving child in your life. The first thing I did was melt the butter and marshmallow together. Once it was all melted and gooey I added in several drops of green food coloring until it was a bright green color.  After the marshmallow was green I mixed in all the Rice Krispie cereal. It wasn’t as green as…

    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 Minecraft themed. He was in heaven. He’s currently Minecraft obsessed. This year was definitely a little different from normal since we are in the middle of a pandemic. I still wanted him to have a great birthday either way. My main goal was to make sure I had green every where. In addition, I wanted…

My Instant Pot has made it so I can have delicious and fast dinners, without making my house get even hotter. In addition, school is starting soon. I know most families are doing distant learning, but that is still time consuming. DJ is only going to be starting kindergarten, and I’m going to be needing to be with him the whole time. In addition to kindergarten, DJ also has two acting classes a…

    This week’s book of the week is different from normal. Usually I post about books we are readying; however, this week I’m talking about a series of books I’ve been using to teach DJ how to write and phonics. The books are Explode The Code primers by Nancy Hall. There are three books in total. They’re the primer books for her Explode the Code series.  I really wanted DJ to get a head start on learning how to write and say his letters correctly before Kindergarten started. Originally, I was doing them every single day. However, COVID got in the way. David started working from home, and things needed to be shifted…

    A Weekend at the Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino

      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 definitely needed a weekend getaway. “WestgateCARES is our enhanced health and safety plan, developed in response to the current COVID- 19 pandemic as part of our ongoing commitment to ensuring the health and well-being of all our guests, Team Members and the communities we work and live in.
