Packing for a 2 week road trip can become quite a chore. In an RV, you a limited amount of cabinet space and hanging space available. For 4 people, that doesn’t give us much room, therefore we needed to make sure we had all the essentials needed for whatever weather we were going to come across. For the kids, I took the time to fold all of their clothes neately and place them in boxes that we had on hand to place into the cabinets. For The Hubster and I, most of our shirts were hung up in the small closet, but our pants were folded and stacked on a shelf. It just so happens that during my packing, I was contacted by the nice people at Downey to sample their new Downy Wrinkle Releaser Plus – a necessity when traveling.
Downy Wrinkle Releaser Plus is really easy to use. All you need to do is spray it on the wrinkled area, stretch out the garment and hang it to dry. The only problem is that if you need to take out wrinkles out quickly, you may need to us a hair dryer or hang the clothes in the sunlight.
For our two week road trip, the first stop was Las Vegas. My mom and step-dad moved there over a year ago, so we try to visit as often as we can. Besides, the kids just love hanging at their place, I mean who wouldn’t with a pool and a putting green?
They live about 25 minutes from the strip and have many fun places to share with us when we get into town. For instance, The Container Park.

Last night, Grammie was available to take the kids and The Hubster and I had a chance to relax at a deliciously unique and casual hang out in Huntington Beach called SeaLegs Wine Bar.
SeaLegs Wine Bar is the creation of Alicia Whitney, originally an event coordinator in Las Vegas, who journaled detailed notes of a pairing/dining concept, with the help of a few partners and Chef Alexander Dale (whose family owns Newport Beach’s Villa Nova), is now a reality.
If you’re following along, you know we planned and have been on a HUGE RV summer road trip this year. With the release of Rio2 on Blu-Ray/DVD on July 15th, we decided to include Blue, Jewel and their family inspired fun activities to keep our youngsters entertained while traveling.
If you’ve gone road trippin’ with your family for any length of destination, you already know how antsy the kiddos can get either cooped up in a car or even traveling in an RV.
Contributor Alma Bosek went to a special event at The Corner Bakery, sampling a few new menu options. She shares her experiences: Last week I was invited to take a sneak peek at The Corner Bakery’s homemade Buttermilk Pancakes, Chilled Berry Almond Swiss Oatmeal and their Spicy Asian Pork Hot Toasted Sandwich.
The food adventure began with a live cooking demonstration by Chef Ric Scicchitano, Vice President of Food and Beverage for The Corner Bakery. We were encouraged to ask questions, taste the food and just have a great time. The whole experience made me love Corner Bakery and want to come back for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The best part of the day was that they shared their secrets and recipes with us.
With several birthdays and special events coming up, I got to thinking about the process of finding a special gift for those who are near and dear. Now that I’m older, I have found it more difficult to buy gifts for moms and dads because they can go out and buy anything they want. To me, personalized gifts are the way to go.
Over the weekends when we try to sleep in (a little) the kids love to get sucked into cartoons. Typically I’ll put on the Disney channel because I’m so over them watching other network cartoon channels with all the commercials marketing directly to them. However, when my husband saw the Snackeez infomercial he was sold but was waiting for a trip to Walgreens to pick one up. He was so excited when he came home and saw a product sample on the counter that he grabbed it and ran over to show the kids.
The nice representatives from Snackezz sent us a snack/drink cup to review and the kids were thrilled. Snackeez are the all-in-one snacking solution, perfect for at home or on-the-go. A drink cup and snack bowl in-one, Snackeez holds a full 16-ounce drink and 4-ounces of your favorite snack in a colorful and convenient travel cup complete with lid and straw. The white Snackeez’ bowl fits perfectly into the cup and twists on for a solid seal. It even has a flip-top lid so dirt, bugs, and even germs stay out of snacks when you’re not snacking.
One of my all time favorite movies of all time is now a touring musical. Ghost, The Musical tickets are now on sale at Segerstrom Center for The Arts.
GHOST – THE MUSICAL, adapted from the Academy Award®-winning film, opens at Segerstrom Center for the Arts, July 29 – August 10.
When the school year ends, and The Hubster finishes his softball season; we start planning our summer break. This year, we were invited by some friends to come up and visit them in Washington and we decided that this was the year for a family road trip.
Rather than flying, we decided to make some stops along the way to share some of the US with the kids. Besides, there were many sights we either hadn’t seen since we were kids, or had never seen. After doing a little research and figuring that each night hotels would cost us on average $200, my husband came up with the idea to look into an RV.
