Today, Mill Creek is releasing LIBERTY’S KIDS: THE COMPLETE SERIES on DVD!  This series is packed with incredible voice talent including – Whoopi Goldberg, Walter Conkrite, Kathleen Barr, Billy Crystal, Michael Douglas, Warren Buffett, Liam Neeson, and more!! Check out the trailer below.

Yippee…summer is here!  The kids are out of school and looking for adventure.  When the family is out and about, think about taking along some healthy snacks so you don’t load up on empty calories.  Tetra Pak, known for its shelf safe, lightweight packaging has compiled some ideas for family road trips, picnics, healthy snacks and family friendly games.  It’s all part of the Milk Unleashed educational campaign to let people know that shelf safe milk is a great solution when you’re on the go.

A little over a week ago I shared with you about Clipless a new mobile gadget that was funding itself through Kickstarter.  Interestingly enough, not long after I wrote that post, I received an e-mail about another really neat Kickstarter project by a new garden company called Earth Starter. 

Earth Starter is releasing their Nourishmat – a pre-fab, paint-by-numbers 4×6 garden that helps kids and parents learn to grow food together.

After over a year ago when we first put our home up for sale, we’re finally at the crossroads of making our move down to Texas!  We closed on our home here on the 10th, and right now we’re bunkering down in a hotel in town, because we have a wedding to attend later today.

After the reception we’re heading south and we’ll drive for a few hours, so the drive on Sunday down to Texas won’t be quite so long. 

One of the things about making such a huge move are the many things you can’t take with you.  I’ve had to toss and giveaway a lot of household items and beauty supplies.  Flammable things and liquids are a no no on a moving truck.  We’ve got some plastic containers filled with things to start us out that we’ll take in our cars, so that will help not having to dish out a lot of money right away buying it all again.

With all the love for Disney in this house and the boxes upon boxes of Disney DVDs that line our shelves, I’m going to let out a little admission here…I’ve never seen The Nightmare Before Christmas before.

Can it possibly be that this movie was released 20 years ago, and not once in all that time have I watched it?!  Shocking, I know!

If you (like me) are actually completely unaware of what this movie is even about here’s a short film synopsis:

How does Zaycon Foods manage to provide such high quality super fresh meat and produce to its customers at such low prices?  The answer is strength in numbers.  And not their numbers, yours!

Zaycon Foods can sell its products at bulk rate prices to individual consumers and families because their unique sales event business model brings lots of people together, adding all their purchasing power into a combined bulk food purchase.

Using apparel and accessories from Wallis, I created a Pinterest board of what I would pack for a desert getaway at Miraval Resort.

Here are the things I chose:

NICKY DEUCE
The new original movie from MarVista Entertainment, as seen on Nickelodeon!

About the Movie
Nicholas Borelli II (Noah Munck), a sheltered suburban teen, has the adventure of a lifetime when his plans for math camp take a sudden turn.  Instead, he is forced to spend his summer in Brooklyn, New York, with the family he never knew he had – his Italian grandmother Tutti (Rita Moreno) and Uncle Frankie (Steven R. Schirripa).
