Plan a Trip to Carowinds’ Great Pumpkin Fest!

Plan a Trip to Carowinds’ Great Pumpkin Fest!

“Mom, when can we go back to Carowinds?” My son has asked me this pretty much every week since we went in July. We haven’t been able to go as much as we’d like, but he’s in luck because in two weeks, we’re headed for a quick trip to Charlotte to check out the Great Pumpkin… [Read More]

Carowinds with Kids: Tips for Your Visit

Last month we took a two-day family trip to the Carowinds Theme Park on the NC/SC border. We had a fabulous time, despite the 100 degree temperatures. Sure, there were some meltdowns, but all in all, it was a really fun trip. Here are our tips to going with young children. 1. Go on a… [Read More]

Plan a night out at Bonefish Grill – new menu additions and decor

A few weeks ago, I was invited to check out the newly renovated Bonefish Grill at North Hills. We don’t get there often, but I love Bonefish, so I was eager to see the new decor and try the new menu items. I grabbed my mom and the kids and we were ready to chow… [Read More]

Adventures in North Carolina: Visiting Carowinds

About 15 years ago, I drove up to Charlotte from Greenville, SC (where I was attending Furman) and met my mom, sister and then boyfriend/now husband at Carowinds. I don’t remember much about the trip other than we had an absolute blast. We rode a ton of rides and even though it was hot, we… [Read More]

Fresh, yummy and local – 2 recipes for summer

I’ve been trying to get “healthy” for the last year and a half. It’s not that I’m “unhealthy” but I could stand to lose a few pounds, I need to eat less sugar and I need to move more. I’ve tried a variety of things and I ebb and flow in how consistent I am…. [Read More]

Where did you deliver your baby? WakeMed North Family Health & Women’s Hospital Opens

Where did you deliver your baby? WakeMed North Family Health & Women’s Hospital Opens

It’s been just over four years since I delivered Miss E at Rex Hospital. At the time, based on where we live, Rex was really the only hospital option for me as the WakeMed main campus was too far of a trek. I didn’t want to have to drive any further than I had to. I… [Read More]

New Earth Fare Open in Morrisville (GIVEAWAY)

New Earth Fare Open in Morrisville (GIVEAWAY)

I’m going to be honest here. When I first got the invite to check out the new Earth Fare store at Park West Village, I almost declined. There’s a store about four miles from me and I don’t love it. It’s dark and uninviting, which is weird to me for a store focused on health… [Read More]

SNOWED IN – reporting live from the trenches

Today is Day 3 of Raleigh’s Snowmeggedon. We started off on a much better foot than yesterday. Yesterday we had lots of whining and screaming before it was even 9 a.m. Yesterday I understood why some animals eat their young. Today the kids are just enthralled with the 5 inches of snow we have. We are lucky… [Read More]

Harlem Globetrotters return to PNC Arena!

A few years ago, Jason and I took Mr A to see the Harlem Globetrotters. He was only 4 but we figured he’d enjoy seeing them do all their amazing tricks. We were right! (Or maybe it was the cotton candy? Either way, he had fun.) Now he’s 6 and OBSESSED with all things sports… [Read More]
