I shared with you that The Hunger Games Mockingjay Part Two was finally released on DVD/ BluRay.  While I am happy to be able to see it, I am also sad that it is now over... What to do now????   I just wanted to share with you a few clips that all Hunger Games fans might want to see.   Enjoy!

My mom read The Hunger Games and suggested I should read it as well.  We love books around here, so I borrowed all of her books from the trilogy and set off to read them.  Once I started, I could not stop and I was so thankful that I had all the books and could just go to the next one without waiting.   I wasn't so lucky with the movie.  I have yet to see the Mockingjay Part One, but I now have Part Two.  I keep saying I will just go on and buy it, since I have yet to find it in stock in a Red Box but when I go looking, it seems like I can only find Part Two since it was just released.  Anyways, I can go on and on about it, but I wanted to let you know that you should totally grab all of them and make it a movie marathon this weekend.   FTC Compliant Review Policy: The product(s) featured in this review were provided free of cost to me by the manufacturer or representing PR agency for the sole purpose of product testing.

Loot Crate is like Christmas morning each month at my house!   I am serious.  If you have been here before, you know that we have been lucky to have built a relationship with Loot Crate in offering you reviews of such a great subscription service.  Each month, we get a box FULL of super cool items that fans of all ages will love. Each month has a theme and recently it was DEAD themed!  Yes, Walking Dead and Deadpool!   Look below to see what all was in there!  (Even though my son does not watch Walking Dead nor has he seen Deadpool, he thought that this was all for him... Not a chance kiddo!  This is for mama!)  FTC Compliant Review Policy: The product(s) featured in this review were provided free of cost to me by the manufacturer or representing PR agency for the sole purpose of product testing.

We are lucky enough to have Legoland Discovery Center (Atlanta) near us and with a son that loves ANYTHING LEGO, we have been at least once or twice.  Who am I kidding?  We used to have season passes and we made it a point to go as much as we could.  Since having the baby, we don't get out to go as often as we once did, so I try to make up for it when I can. Recently we were invited to go to a sneak peak for the new opening of their newest exhibit, Pirate Island.  Of course I said yes, I had to go check it out and it was a great gift for this awesome big brother we have here!

If you live near the Chick-fil-A on Macland Crossing, you might want to plan to do something pretty cool this weekend!!!!    I was not paid to promote this, but as a #ChicfilAMom I am pretty excited. Lets be real here... as a mom... and a fan of Chick-fl-A, I am stoked!!!!  This is an email I received and thought I would share.  You can get emails like this too, just sign up for them!!!! Time for our second annual Stuffed Animal Sleepover, Friday night,April 15, 5-7 pm  and Saturday morning, 8-10 am . Here's how it works: bring your favorite stuffed animal (that you can spend the night without), and come to Macland Crossing Chick-fil-A. Wearing your jammies would be great! You'll make a craft or two based on a "sleepover" theme, then leave your animal overnight. During the night, your stuffed animal will enjoy all kinds of great fun with other stuffed animals, and we'll take pictures of all the merrymaking. Then in the morning, when you return to pick up you...
