Chick-fil-A Fountain 2nd Annual Family 5K

This past weekend, the kids and I were invited to take part in the 2nd Annual Chick-fil-A Family 5K in Fountain.

Since I am part of the Chick-fil-A, I've been lucky enough to connect with our local Chick-fil-A and we've loved their military events, mom-son events, and their breakfast specials!  The Family 5K is a chance for the Fountain location to celebrate their anniversary and show support for the local community.

The Brick Fest Live LEGO Fan Experience {Denver}

We have loved all things LEGO at our house, between one kid or the other, for the better part of ten years now.  We have City, we have Friends, we have Disney, we have Star Wars, and then some.  The boy is finally old enough that we can buy the really big, awesome sets, like his Millenium Falcon Christmas surprise.  I am looking forward to surprising him with this blog project as soon as he gets home from summer camp.

Coming August 12-13, Colorado LEGO lovers rejoice! The Brick Fest Live LEGO Fan Experience is filled with hands-on attractions and activities built to inspire, educate, and entertain and will be in Denver from Saturday, August 12, 2017, 9:00am through Sunday, August 13, 2017, 6:00pm

Summer Reading Programs for Kids in Colorado Springs

When I was growing up, one of my favorite things in the summertime was the summer reading program at our local library.  Typically, I'd rush through the first 20 books for the big prize and try to see how many more books I could read (side note: it was always a three-digit goal).

Now as a mom, I love that my kids love to read too! Since we're living in Colorado Springs, there are lots of great summer reading programs to choose from.  The kids pick their favorites and keep a personal Goodreads list of what they've read for an all summer total.
