“I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Red Lobster. I received a gift card to facilitate my review promotional item as a thank-you for participating.”

At least once a month, my husband and I try to have a date night. We get my parents over to watch the kids and we go out for a few hours. No matter what our plans are, we always go out to dinner first. Sometimes it is just dinner and then grocery shopping with no kids, but being together and enjoying a quiet, relaxing meal is a must.

I print photos frequently to add new frames around the house, make scrapbooks, and send photos to long distant relatives. However, with technology and social media these days, I find myself going long periods without printing a single photo. I love taking pictures daily of my sons, but often find myself sharing them on Instagram and quickly forgetting about them. That has all changed now, as I recently learned how easy it is to print Instagram photos with the Walgreens App.
