The Best Birthday Parties Happen in Chuck E. Cheese!

The Best Birthday Parties Happen in Chuck E. Cheese!

The Best Birthday Parties Happen in Chuck E. Cheese!

When you think of childhood birthday parties, what comes to mind?  For most of us, we think about balloons and clowns and lots of goodies.  I would be willing to bet too that for most of us, there is a specific location that comes to mind as well, the place that comes to mind for me is Chuck E. Cheese’s.  That’s for a good reason, Chuck E. Cheese’s is America’s number one place for birthdays and has been for a long time.  I would be willing to be that many of us remember our visits from our childhood, or at the very least, the fun commercials that used to come on TV.   In fact, Chuck E. Cheese is celebrating their 40th Birthday this year and they want you to celebrate your child’s birthday along with them.

A Mother's Lifeline- Amwell Medical Services

As a Mom of 6 kids, time is something I am always short of, and of course it’s even worst when the kids are sick. I don’t know about your Family, but in mine; when one kid gets sick they all follow suit. This is why I truly believe in the title of my post: A Mother’s Lifeline- Amwell Medical Services

I remember when they were very little, I used to panic all the time and rush to the emergency rooms with all 6 of my kids, oh the memories of having all the kids miserable for no reason. [Read more…]

Free child’s pancake from IHop during October

by Lily @militaryfamof8

Free child’s pancake from IHop during October IHop

Free Child s Pancake From IHop During October

Yes, it’s valid, Free Child’s Pancake From IHop During October.  IHop is having a great promotion for the entire month of October.  A free child’s large pancake for them to make a scary face with.
Limit 1 per child, Dine in only.  There is NO limit on the number of children you have, or the days you attend,

As you may have guessed, I have many kiddos, so not only does any “free child’s meal” offer sound great; but it’s even better when it’s for the entire month AND no limit on the children you have with you.  This is definitely my favorite October treat.

This is a great after school treat, or a weekend brunch treat; or in my children’s opinion:
It’s an EVERY DAY after school treat (so they wish)

Looking for Something Specific?

Hi!
Welcome to our little world!
My name is Lily, I am a Mommy to 6 kids; and wife to a US Navy Sailor of 15 years. We are a typical Family trying to live the American dream, and though my son’s Autism and my Husband’s PTSD and TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) sometimes try to dampen our mood; we try our hardest to push through it and keep on movin’!

I absolutely LOVE blogging, sharing our life, and our adventures; whether good or not so good.

Our Family went through what WE hope is the worst week ever a year and a half ago, and tragedies continued to hit our Family for a while.
In 4 days, our car was totaled, our house broken into, and our house caught on fire. We are literally having to start over from scratch.
