How To Get Your Child To Read This Last Half Of Summer
We’re already over half-way through the summer, and a return to school is probably beginning to loom on both students’ and parents’ minds. (Maybe even some teachers, too. I’m just sayin.’) If you’re a parent, maybe you’re feeling a little guilty because your child hasn’t done much summer reading so far. No worries. Better late…

Toy Story 4 – A Movie Review
Yesterday, I think you would have been justified to feel that Toy Story 4 is largely unnecessary. After all, Toy Story 3 ended just about perfectly. However, if you happened to watch the Toy Story Toons shorts, you know that Woody and the gang embarked upon a whole new set of adventures with young Bonnie. …

Reza’s Edge Of Illusion: Branson, Baby! – Our 2019 Spring Break (Part 14)
When we researched our 2019 Spring Break trip to Branson, everything said Reza was a must. I’ve never heard of the guy, so after exploring his website and reading a few reviews, I presented him as a possibility to the family. My wife and kids really like magicians and illusionists, so we figured we’d give him…

Star Wars: Master & Apprentice by Claudia Gray – A Book Review
Star Wars: Master & Apprentice is a new book written by Claudia Gray. It features Qui-Gon Jinn and his relatively recently appointed Padawan, Obi-Wan Kenobi. As you’ve probably guessed, it takes place before Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. I looked forward to reading this book for two reasons. The first is that Qui-Gon Jinn is…

X-Men: Dark Phoenix – A Movie Review
I just go out of X-Men: Dark Phoenix, and I’ve got some good news for you – it’s not that bad! Sure, that’s not a huge compliment, but, to be honest, I expected it to be terrible. Why did I have such dire expectations? First of all, the constant delays in release is never a…

Aladdin (2019) – A Movie Review
I’m 42 years old, so I was in high school when the original Aladdin debuted. I enjoyed it, especially the Robin Williams performance, but I didn’t consider it a masterpiece nor do I to this day. Fun? Absolutely? Great music? You bet. A holy artifact that should remain untouched for the rest of time? No. …

World’s Largest Toy Museum: Branson, Baby! – Our 2019 Spring Break (Part 13)
I’ve had a love affair with toys my entire life. I’m not exactly sure what they represent to me or why I’m still drawn to them, but I’m always game to check out the toy aisles with my kids! In fact, before my children were born, I still collected certain toys that aligned with my…

The Butterfly Palace & Rainforest Adventure: Branson, Baby! – Our 2019 Spring Break (Part 12)
While in Branson during Spring Break, we decided to check out The Butterfly Palace and Rainforest Adventure. As is almost everything in Branson, it proved very easy to find. When we first arrived, we entered the main doors which fed into a large circular room with a very high-ceiling. Wide, gradual stairs lined this round…

The Pergola Project: Our Experience With LKM Landscaping
We worked with LKM several years ago on an outdoor lighting project that made us very happy, so when it came time to renovate our backyard patio, they were the only company we called. The primary reason we called LKM focused around two issues. Firstly, we have three trees that outgrew the brick circles LKM…
