Whew! My weekend was such a whirlwind that I completely forgot to post the winner.
Let me just say- I THOROUGHLY enjoyed reading all of your comments. It sounds like so many of you are making fantastic choices for your family- both by eating better and becoming more active.
I read countless comments that talked about giving up soda and sugary juices… avoiding Lunchables and other packaged foods were also popular choices. If you have some time to kill, I highly suggest taking a look through the comments here to learn some great tips and strategies for adopting a healthier lifestyle.
The very lucky winner of this giveaway is:

You may have noticed by now that my family travels a lot. Every family has their hobbies, and traveling is definitely one of ours. We love to save our pennies and then use them to pay for fun vacations. One of my favorite things to do is to plan our next adventure.
Before we ever decide on where our next trip will be, I make a stop to our local library. I grab several travel guides and books to research potential destinations and enjoy pouring over them to narrow down our choices.
I’m planning two potential road trips at the moment. One of them is slated for March 2011 and will be a vacation in…. Florida! We are thinking about heading to Florida for a week, splitting our time between some Orlando theme parks and a game or two of Phillies Spring Training.
I want to share one of the resources that I found at the library. If you are considering a trip with the kids to Walt Disney World, you need this book!!! I picked up Fodor’s Walt Disney World with Kids 2009 while at the library. I began reading it and couldn’t believe how much insider info could be packed into one book. I enjoyed the book so much, I decided to check Amazon for a newer version.
I was thrilled to find Fodor’s Walt Disney World with Kids 2010 (with Universal Orlando and Sea World) by Kim Wright Wiley available for the bargain price of just $12.23 (plus it shipped free with my Amazon Prime membership).
This book is pretty much a bible of all things Disney that relate to kids. You will find tips and tricks, money and time saving ideas, and a detailed description of area hotels, eating options, and travel choices.
I have no doubt- this book is going to save us time and money- and help us decide where to stay, among other things. Be sure to check it out!

Just in case you haven’t heard, there’s a huge new movie release hitting the shelves next week. On Tuesday, March 16, 2010, Disney’s The Princess and the Frog will be available for purchase!
We got the chance to see two of the songs from this movie performed during the last Disney on Ice show- they were fantastic!

Without a doubt, my very very favorite character when I was little was Winnie the Pooh. In fact, I loved all of the characters that lived in the Hundred Acre Wood… well, EXCEPT perhaps those pesky Heffalumps and Woozles- they scared the life out of me.
Releasing TODAY, 1/5/10, is a brand new DVD movie that is sure to be a hit with your favorite little Valentine(s): Disney’s Winnie the Pooh: A Valentine for You (Special Edition). This DVD is full of fun and adventure that play out in three different stories:
- A Valentine for You
- Un-Valentine’s Day
- Three Little Piglets
Each story features all of your favorite Winnie the Pooh characters as they set off on a Valentine’s adventure. Lily Bean and I had the chance to watch this DVD together. She had never watched a Winnie the Pooh show before, but she has an Eeyore picture in her room- as soon as he appeared on the screen she went wild! The stories held her attention and certainly entertained her. Sometimes there is nothing more precious or enjoyable than getting to sit and watch her delight in something.
This Special Edition DVD has some bonus features:
- “My Hero”- a new-to-dvd adventure featuring Tigger and Piglet helping each other out
- “Catch the Love Bug” Game- flying love bugs are on the loose in the Hundred Acre Wood, and it’s up to you to catch as many as you can (this was really cute!)
- Comes with a set of Winnie the Pooh Valentine’s cards
Runtime: 50 minutes
Price: $21.99 (available from Amazon)
