I don't know about you but my kids absolutely LOVE the Ice Age movies. There's something about that scraggly squirrel that just makes them giddy and insane! Recently they've been asking about seeing the upcoming Ice Age: Continental Drift movie which comes out in theaters on July 13, 2012. I think we are going to…

In just a few short days – beginning on June 25, 2012 – the USA Olympic Swim Team will begin broadcasting their Olympic swim team trials nationwide on NBC. The trials will run through July 2, 2012. Growing up a Texas gal, swimming has always been a huge hit with me. I have many fond…
My mom's kitchen counter with "just a few" cookbooks she pulled from her storage. The woman does not need ANY cookbooks because all of her scrumptious recipes are in her head. She won't use half of these because she needs no assistance in the culinary department. I, on the other hand, will be making…
