I am so proud to be a PBS Kids VIP Parent (their pretty name for a brand ambassador). The biggest perk of this job is attending the PBS Annual Meeting which brings together PBS stations from around the country to introduce them to new shows,…

Note: Hunter Hayes is providing concert tickets for me and the contest winner. Words are mine.
Did you watch the Grammy's this year? You may remember a remarkable young man performing his song, "Invisible" with inspirational quotes flying all around him as he sang his heart out?

Note: Riot Fest provided tickets for the event but all words and photos are mine. There was a really fun weekend in September where I was able to take my 11 year old son (who just turned 11 that week) to see some of the most amazing bands of my lifetime. Riot Fest was held way east of Denver in a field at May Farms, and all that open sky actually gave me a feeling of agoraphobia. It also gave us a great view of the three massive stages where bands Blink 182, AWOLNation, Public Enemy, Iggy & The Stooges and The Replacements played their faces off for two days.
