written by Lauren

Lauren of Mom Home Guide golfing at Topgolf in Mount Laurel, NJ

This post was sponsored by Topgolf of Mount Laurel, NJ. My family and I received a free visit to Topgolf in exchange for my honest review. My family and I aren't golfers, but we had an awesome time golfing this past Sunday at TopGolf in Mount, Laurel, NJ. Topgolf is a top-notch entertainment center for all ages that has locations across the U.S.  The concept of Topgolf is really a lot of fun -- when you play at Topgolf, your family or party is assigned a hitting bay, much like you get a lane when going to a bowling alley. You pay for the bay by the hour, not per person, and up to six Continue reading...

Puppy Summer Road Trip to New York & Canada — Part I

written by Lauren

shih tzu at fountain in Phillipsburg, NJ

My family and I recently got back from an amazing road trip to the Niagara Falls, Canada and New York's Finger Lake region. Best of all, we brought our new Shih Tzu puppy, Mochi, with us! The trip passed by in a blur, and I can't believe that we are back home already. We adopted Mochi in January, and weren't ready to leave him in a kennel. I've read that the Niagara Falls and New York's Finger Lakes region is dog friendly. So we settled on upstate New York as this summer's vacation destination. I used the app, Bring Fido, to locate the puppy-friendly hotels and many of the sites we visited Continue reading...
