Celebrate International Friendship Day On July 30th

Happy International Friendship Day

This post is part of a sponsored series for Socialstars; however the honest opinions are my own. Did you know that International Friendship Day is on July 30th? What a wonderful thing to celebrate! Friends are important parts of our lives and slowing down to take this day to recognize them can be heartwarming, meaningful, and memorable. My sister is one of my best friends and I'm so thankful and lucky to have been able to move to live close to her and her family. Our kids are growing up ... continue reading...

What Is Pokemon Go?

I'm not sure what's more common these days. People asking "What is Pokemon Go?" or people playing the game. I first saw the game while in line at Cedar Point last weekend. A couple in front of me had their phones out and were scanning the areas around them. They were smiling, laughing, and swiping their screens. I was intrigued but wasn't sure what they were doing. When I got home everywhere I looked people were doing the same and I learned they were playing Pokemon Go. What Is Pokemon ... continue reading...

Why You Need A Waterproof Phone

Technology is so advanced now that our smartphones keep getting better and better. Phone received. Many of us have more of an active lifestyle and we have to make sure we get a great case to protect our device (which is also an investment). Well now we can throw away the case and be happy and feel safe with a phone in its own skin. The Samsung Galaxy S7 Active. When I say feel safe, I really mean feel safe. To call the S7 Active a durable phone is a major understatement, yes it has a ... continue reading...

Book Vending Machines Come To Detroit To Give Kids Free Books

I was excited to learn recently that JetBlue's Soar With Reading program is installing book vending machines in Detroit to give kids free books. How amazing is that?! The locations selected for the vending machines were determined to be book deserts in Detroit, areas where children and their families have little to no access to purchase age-appropriate children's books. In fact, the Hamtramck area of Detroit was found to only have one book for every 42 children. The book vending ... continue reading...

Hey there! I’m Tesa, the mom behind 2 Wired 2 Tired. The blog got its name because we have two kids born a year apart and my husband, Dave, and I always joked that "the kids were too wired and we were too tired!" :)

Fast forward a bit—now the kids are off to college (how did that happened so fast!) and since 2009, I’ve been blogging through the chaos, coffee in hand, finding the best in family, travel, and tech—because honestly, who has time for bad gadgets and boring trips?

So, whether you're searching for family travel inspiration, tech gadgets, or tips to enhance family life, you're in the right place because the fun (and the coffee) is always brewing around here!
