I have received no compensation for this post. However, the discount code is associated with my group. For years now, I've been hearing about how wonderful the Weekend To Remember Relationship & Marriage Retreat is.  But we have yet to make it.  This past year, I honestly thought we were.  I had been asking my husband about it for months and he seemed very receptive.  And one time, he even double checked the dates and made a written note.  I can't remember the exact comment he made, but Read more [...]

Thank you to A Mustard Seed Toys for sending product for review in exchange for my honest opinion. I love toys that are not electronic - and that help foster our daughter's imagination.
