March 10, 2013 by 19 Comments
Think just because you have kids a sports car is out of the question? Think again! The Scion FR-S is an attractive, front-engine, rear-wheel-drive, practical sports coupe that comfortably fits two extra large car seats in the back! And with a starting price of $25,355.00, it's affordable too! The interior of the car aims to please. The two front seats look very sporty with red stitching and sides. They don't have as many ways to adjust as I'd like, but myself (5' 4" ) and my husband ("6' 0") were both able to get comfortable enough in the drivers seat. The easy to use air dials make adjusting the … [Read more...]

Getting a helmet on Ethan's head is a bit like giving a cat a bath. He whines and complains and just makes the entire process a pain in my rear. However when he slipped his noggin into a RASKULLZ helmet wearing it became less of a chore and a bit more radical! Each and every RASKULLZ helmet features a super fun design like Skull-Hawk, Cutie Cat and Shark Attack! Ethan browsed the site with me for what seemed like days before he decided his favorite was the Black Mohawk. We choose the 5+ helmet, which fits heads 50-54mm and the fit was spot on.
