Can you believe it’s already time to start thinking about back to school? It seems like summer just started, but the kids will be going back to school very soon! And there’s one item that’s a must-have on my kids’ school shopping list–the Bark Watch for kids. Sending my kids to school with their Bark Watches helps me feel more at ease about their safety in a scary world.
To me, one of the most interesting parts of being a millennial is having experienced life both with and without the Internet. I remember my family getting (dial-up) AOL Internet when I was about 11 years old. Since then, I’ve spent a lot of time online. I’ve even built my own business 100% online. Even with as many years as I’ve spent online, I was confused when I started hearing about VPNs. Why do I need a VPN? And what are the benefits of a VPN?
Blair and I just returned from a weekend in Omaha, Nebraska for her to attend a dance convention. It’s about a 3 hour drive from our home in Kansas City, so we needed a place to stay for the weekend. We found the Courtyard Marriott Bellevue and it was perfect for us! If you’re looking for Bellevue NE hotels with pools — look no further! Read on to find out why this Bellevue NE hotel is our top pick for visits to the Omaha area…
Recently, Blair and I were in St. Louis for her to attend a dance convention. Although we live in Kansas City, it was actually Blair’s first time visiting St. Louis! Our hotel happened to be right next to the Gateway Arch, so I asked her if she wanted to see the St Louis Arch inside — and she was definitely interested. Going up in the St Louis Arch has changed a lot since I was a kid, so today I’m sharing our Gateway Arch Travel Guide so you’re ready for your own St. Louis adventure!
What has an executive suite, lounge access, an indoor/outdoor rooftop pool, and more? Our latest trip to the Hyatt Regency Tulsa Downtown!
My daughter Blair and I have made several trips to Tulsa, Oklahoma over the past couple of years for her dance competitions. Because we visit the area so frequently, I’m always on the lookout for the best hotels in downtown Tulsa and this latest visit was no exception! Most recently, we had the opportunity to stay at the Hyatt Regency Tulsa Downtown and it was an amazing experience. I’m very excited to share my Hyatt Regency Tulsa Downtown reviews with you in this post.
