There is a Champion in all of Us + McFarland, USA  Giveaway #McFarlandUSA #MiInspiracion #Ad

Disclosure: This is part of a sponsored campaign with DiMe Media and Buena Vista Home Entertainment. However, all opinions expressed are my own. Since my children first started school I have told them everyday to "Work Hard, Be Nice". I figured if they were hard workers and were nice to others then I covered the basics. When I was little, my mother also covered the basics with me. But to us, life was only about the basics. Like many before her, she came to this country as a teenager Continue Reading

On our last movie night we saw the previews to Paddington The Movie to which my 10 year old son said we HAD to watch it. Do you remember the Continue Reading

Does you enjoy a good ghost story? Hearing a ghost story is very different than staying in a haunted hotel! Most Haunted Hotels can be found from the East to West coast and every state in between.

My daughter's life is semi complete! Not exactly, but the euphoric feeling has not gone away since last week's advance screening of One Direction: This Is Us 3D movie.
