If you follow me on Instagram and/or Twitter, you know that recently Legoland Discovery Center in Atlanta had Star Wars Days.  It was the first weekend in November and with a son that loves all things LEGO and Star Wars, I was lucky to get to take him there for the day to enjoy!  While Star Wars Days is over now, I did want to share a few upcoming events with you.   Savannah did not really know what to think of them all. Getting greeted in the main lobby?  Pretty cool!   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.

***** UPDATE - Contest has ended. Latanya T is the winner.  Thanks to all who entered.*****  I will be the first to admit that I am not perfect. ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO MOTHERHOOD. Yes, I am a one of the BAD MOMS out there. There, it is out there. In print. No denying it.  Now that I have said that, let me also say that I do try my best at all times.  I make mistakes, but show me a perfect mom and I bet you that she can find at least one flaw in herself. I saw the previews for the movie, Bad Moms, and I knew it looked hilarious. I then saw it was from the writers of The Hangover, so I knew it was going to have me laughing.

Growing up, my cousin was one of my best friends.  I remember going to her house and playing Barbies for like a million years.  She had the Barbie house too, super cool!   I tried to remember what age I started liking Barbie (and when I grew out of them) but for the life of me, I can't recall.  My mom recently said she played with Barbies for ages and then her mom joked that she traded Barbies for boys and it was over then!  I was excited to get two Barbie books for review to see the history of that doll so many girls have grown to love over the years!  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.
