They know all about the new characters like Vexy and Hackus, and they think the new characters are so fun. In fact my son is already making me buy him Vexy apparel after playing this game. My kids are pretty obsessed with it right now. It's a good thing it's summer time and … [Read more...]

I am very excited to see what this conference has in store. I've heard different things about the conference from past years, but I am going into it with an open mind and hoping to meet some new people … [Read more...]
So, the kids are home and are bored. They want to play Skylanders on the Wii or Minecraft on the iPad. That's fine in moderation. It is their summer break, but they can't do that 24-7. With working full time this summer (the first time ever in my life since I was a teacher before), things are a little different in our household. I used to like taking the kids on field trips a few times a week, but that is just not possible now. If you have … [Read more...]
