A Grandfather’s Love, Demonstrated in Freeze Pops

on
As the weather starts to break a bit, we make plans for Spring Break, and I book my kids in a variety of Summer camps,  I am reminded that this summer will be different because we won't have my dad to share the summer with,  My dad kept these on the rotation, in every flavor. Not even sure how he gets them now because I think they are the equivalent of "kid crack"--made with artificial coloring, flavoring, and sugar . To my kids though, these freeze pops were love and summer wrapped in a bow. (As an Amazon associate, I am compensated for qualifying purchases.)

A Peek Into the Life of a Working Mom: The UPMC Children's Ball

on
This weekend we got to have family time. And family time is always good!

Anybody who has kids understands that it is important to keep them stimulated. One way to do that is find out about interesting events going on and attend those that make sense. In the past twelve months we've gone to the circus, to see "Yo Gabba Gabba Get the Sillies Out" and to a Chinese New Year celebration to name a few.

This past weekend, we attended The UPMC Children's Ball at the Carnegie Science Center and it was a night perfect for adults and children. We arrived and walked on a red carpet, which seemed fitting given that we like to say that we're raising our daughter, "Hollywood style" in Pittsburgh.

The Carnegie Science Center is a great place to have a party!


They had great food. There was a carving station with Prime rib and turkey, salad and French fries and chicken fingers. And how many balls can you attend where they have peanut butter and jelly?!

As you can see from the photos below we partied hard. Perhaps we are rock stars after all...

Moving and rocking we're never stopping! (See our little bass player in the corner.)
