Make sure you check out PART ONE of our Universal vacation to catch up!
universal studios vacation part 1
We decided on taking an adults only trip to Universal Studios Orlando. We planned this vacation on New Years Day 2018, so it has been a LONG year of waiting for it to finally arrive. Our main focus was Halloween Horror Nights, which is the largest Halloween event in the U.S. but obviously wanted to go to the parks too. My parents had never been to Orlando – it was fun seeing everything through their eyes! We had such a fun time but I was definitely ready to get home to my kids after six days!!
gift guide for the harry potter lover
It might not come as a shock to most of you but we are a Harry Potter loving family. I don’t mean we like to watch the movies once a year, I mean we might possibly have a large shrine in our basement, tattoos on our body and an obsessive amount of vacations to the Wizarding World under our belt. Harry Potter is life over here. I get tagged in just about any Harry Potter related post on Facebook by my friends. It’s not a secret to most that we are OBSESSED.
I put together the ultimate gift guide for the Harry Potter lovers in your life. Christmas is quickly approaching and a lot of these shops are small. This can mean it will take longer to receive the products because they are hand-made. So its a good idea to get a jump start on your shopping so you will have everything in time for the holidays.

spring reading list
If there is one thing you need to know about my family, it’s that we are avid book lovers. We have started accumulating quite the little library in our office. I love going down there and planning what I’m going to read next. I usually take books upstairs to put into the kids rooms for them to read that month. I try to “theme” them as much as possible to holidays or whatever else is going on that time of year.
