Another school year in the books for mini me! No more gettin' up super early, homework, Success Maker, Wonders, kahoot, Dojo, mojo, flojo, and whatever other programs the school board blindly signs up for. (I digress). But summer break is here and the mini couldn't be happier. What do you'll have planned for the summer?... Continue Reading →
Spring Break at American Dream Mall
We had a great time during our Spring Break! We decided on going up north to NJ and NY and do the tourist-y thing. We did Times Square, watched Hamilton Live, shopped a little, and ate a lot, but one of the best parts was going to American Dream Mall. American Dream Mall is a... Continue Reading →
