<br />
Well, I am sad to say, Spring Break for my family has come to an end. As with all vacations, it went by far too fast.<br />
<br />
Luckily for us, Southern California weather couldn't have been any more beautiful. To celebrate the weather and the time off we headed to San Diego to catch some zzzzz's and some rays.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
We stayed busy with paddle-boarding, bike riding, sandcastle building and book reading. I couldn't have asked for a better break.<br />

<br />
It is Spring Break time here in So Cal and I am enjoying every minute of it. It seems to get earlier and earlier every year, but I'm not complaining.<br />
<br />
I love Spring Break because it gives my family and I some good quality time together. What do we do for Spring Break? We do what every sensible Southern California family does . . . we head to the beach!<br />
<br />
Have you had Spring Break yet? What do you like to do with the time off? Comment below and let me know.<br />
<br />
This week I wanted to share a video I shot recently giving you a few tips on how to send a great Curiosity Quest letter. We get thousands of letters so it is important to make your letter stand out. Get some tips from me on how to increase your chances of getting your letter chosen.<br />

I asked you, " If you could have one superpower what would it be?"<br />
<br />
Well, I guess it was too hard to think of just one, because you guys seem to want many super powers. <br />
From invisibility to shape shifting to flying, you are one imaginative bunch! Thank you for sharing your answers with me. <br />
<br />
What super power would I want? Flying, for sure. Imagine how quickly I could get from place to place! Imagine how many more episodes of Curiosity Quest I could film? That would be amazing!<br />
<br />
This week I wanted to share a fun video that I shot of the Curiosity Quest crew. I caught them off guard while eating dinner, put the camera in their face and asked them to tell me five things that they love about working on Curiosity Quest. Hear what they have to say.<br />
<br />
<iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/ojhiCc31vSE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
<br />
By the way, I would love to know one thing that you love about Curiosity Quest. Tell me your answers below!<br />
<br />
Thank you for continuing to be awesome fans! Hope you have a wonderful week.<br />
<br />
In the meantime,<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Hey there CQ fans! Happy New Year! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I hope 2014 if off to a fantastic start. So far so good for Curiosity Quest. We are set to have a amazing year. We are busy filming new episodes for you. I can't wait for you to see them. You are going to love them! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">As if that wasn't enough to keep us busy this year, we have some special events happening. One of them I'm going to keep secret from you. I'm sorry, I know. You want to know what it is, but I will announce that big news in a couple of months.
In the meantime, I wanted to share with you something awesome that Curiosity Quest is doing. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">CQ has teamed up with the amazing non profit organization Corazon de Vida. Corazon de Vida financially supports orphanages in Baja, Mexico. They provide children in dire need the necessities of shelter, food, clothing, education, and healthcare – as well as hope, compassion and love. </span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Curiosity Quest is so amazed by this fantastic organization that we have decided we want to help. </span> We are doing something we have never done before.
For this week only, Curiosity Quest will be donating $10 from every DVD sold in the Curiosity Quest store to Corazon de Vida to help support their mission. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> Did you hear that? $10 from every sale! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">We are so excited to have the opportunity to help make a difference in the lives of these children. I hope that you will help us.
Don't miss the chance to entertain your family while giving back to end the cycle of poverty and homelessness. </span><br />

<br />
So sorry it has been so long since I have posted. It was a whirlwind of a Summer. I can't believe it is already Fall. Truly, where has the time gone?<br />
<br />
For those of you who follow us on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/CuriosityQuest">Facebook</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/curiosityquest">Twitter</a>, you may have already heard the news, but in case you didn't I thought I would share this special update with you. For the past few weeks we have been celebrating the arrival of a new member to the CQ family. Our very own producer, Melissa, and her husband have welcomed in to this world a beautiful baby girl named Avery. I wanted to take a moment to introduce you to this sweet little girl. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I know! She is gorgeous right?<br />
<br />
She has brought much joy to the CQ family and we are so happy for Producer Melissa! Congrats to her and her husband.<br />
<br />
In other CQ news, we have been hard at work on new Curiosity Quest episodes. Some of the locations that we recently filmed at are; Mrs. Grossman's Stickers, Frito Lay Factory, Long Beach Aquarium, and the Hodu Soy Beanery. Can you guess what you will learn about in these episodes? Post your guesses in the comments section on this page.<br />
<br />
Also, stay tuned in the near future for a special announcement coming your way.<br />
<br />
Thank you for being such awesome fans! We couldn't do it without you!<br />

<br />
Hey there CQ fans!<br />
<br />
I am so excited that Spring is here! Do you know what that means? It means that Earth Day is near! It is on Monday, April 22nd. <br />
<br />
I happen to love the month of April. Do you?<br />
<br />
Here at Curiosity Quest we spend a lot of time doing episodes on "Going Green." We have learned so much about how to help take care of our planet. April means Earth Day celebrations! Earth Day gives me a chance to participate in events where I can share with students all that I have learned from doing the Curiosity Quest Goes Green episodes.<br />
<br />
This past weekend I had the honor of hosting an Earth Day event in my home town. I had the pleasure of meeting a lot of CQ fans and I had the opportunity to learn new tips on how to help our planet. My daughter joined me at this event and was so inspired that she wanted to share some of the tips that she learned with you. Watch the video to meet Devyn and see how she helps the planet.<br />
<br />
Make sure to leave a comment below to tell Devyn and I what you do to help take care of Planet Earth.<br />
<br />

<br />
Hey there CQ Fans! <br />
<br />
Happy March to everyone!<br />
<br />
I just returned from a business trip that took me from Atlanta to Savannah, Georgia. I have been to Savannah a couple of times now, and it is quickly becoming one of my favorite cities. Have you been there?<br />
<br />
After visiting Savannah, I then drove to Florida to visit a few friends. What a beautiful drive. I feel so grateful that I have had the opportunity to visit so much of our awesome country.
While in Florida, I was able to spend one night in Daytona Beach. If you have ever been to Daytona Beach, then you know that it is a pretty cool place. There is something specific about Daytona Beach that makes it unique. Do you know what that is? Watch the video above and I will tell you.<br />
<br />
In the meantime, we are in the pre-production stage of a new season, so keep your letters coming. Who knows, we might choose your letter for our next "Curiosity Quest."<br />
<br />
Until next time, Stay Curious!<br />

Hey there CQ fans,
I hope that your New Year is off to a great start. I know that mine is. <br />
<br />
The Curiosity Quest team is hard at work trying to bring you new and exciting episodes. I think that you are going to like what we have in store for you.<br />
<br />
We recently filmed and episode in Las Vegas, Nevada where we learned how ice sculptures are made. It was so awesome, but so incredibly cold. The warehouse where we filmed was 17 degrees. Absolutely freezing! I have a new appreciation for the incredible art of ice sculpting. <br />
<br />
I can't wait to share this episode with you, along with the other fantastic shows that we have in store. <br />
<br />
Check out this video vlog. I am reading some of the great letters that I get from fans, and I also have a question for you. Check out the video and make your comments below.<br />
<br />
In the meantime,<br />
Stay Curious!<br />

<br />
Hey CQ Fans!<br />
<br />
Today is the first day in Southern California that you can catch a hint of Fall. Personally, I love it. I will take the cold and rain over the heat any day. Unfortuantely, it looks like the heat will return this weekend, but in the meantime, I am going to enjoy the chill in the air.<br />
<br />
As I have told you before, the crew and I recently went to North Carolina to film some shows. One of the shows that we filmed was on how NASCAR's are built. In the process of filming this show, I had the priviledge of sitting in Danica Patrick's car, or let's say, I attempted to fit in her seat.<br />
<br />
Check out the video for a quick story about me and Danica Patrick's race car.<br />
<br />
Question of the day: What is your favorite Halloween Candy? Comment below and let me know. Mine is ..... hmmmm.....well.... ALL OF IT!!!! I love it all. You name it, I will eat it. How about you?<br />
<br />
In the meantime,<br />

<br />
Happy September to Our Wonderful CQ Fans!<br />
<br />
I hope that the return of fall, which is nearly here, finds you all doing well. The Curiosity Quest crew is doing great! We are knee deep in producing our new season and having a blast while we are at it.<br />
<br />
The end of August, brought the CQ crew to North Carolina with contest winner, Genevieve and her family to learn all about how mirrors are made. Let me tell you one thing . . . making mirrors is hot! Really, I mean literally hot. It was 150 degrees in the factory. Can you imagine? It was so hot that we worried that the cameras would melt!<br />
<br />
While we were there in North Carolina, we decided that there were a couple of other things that we were curious too. So we took some time to learn how NASCAR's are made and we made a stop at a goat farm to learn how to care for and raise goats! It was awesome, but the goat did cause some damage. I will let you watch the video I posted to find out what it ate :)<br />
<br />
Thank you to all of you who commented on our last post to tell us what to ask while we were on these other shoots. It was so helpful!<br />
<br />
Comment and tell us what your favorite thing about Fall is. Mine, is the cooler weather for sure!<br />
<br />
In the meantime,<br />
<br />
Stay Curious!<br />

Hey there CQ Fans! What's Up???????<br />
<br />
I hope things are going well with you. As I said, I am in need of your help. How you might ask?<br />
<br />
Well, the crew and myself are heading to North Carolina with our contest winner, Genevieve, to learn how mirrors are made. We are so excited about this show and are so happy to have Genevieve and her family joining us on this awesome quest.
While we are in North Carolina, we decided to do a couple of other shows as well.<br />
<br />
Guess what we will be doing? Ok, I won't make you guess. I will just tell you.<br />
<br />
We are going to be heading to a goat farm to learn all about goats. I don't know the first thing about these adorable animals. Do you? There is so much I would like to know about them, but I want to hear what you would like to know. What have you always wondered about goats? Let me know, so I can be sure to ask while I am filming the show.<br />
<br />
Lastly, and this is a big one . . . we are going to be learning how NASCARs are built! Can you believe it? I know, me either! We are going to learn, first hand, how these amazing vehicles are made. What do you want to know about NASCARs? What should I ask the experts? Comment below and let me know!<br />
<br />
Thank you again for being such awesome fans. Stay tuned on Facebook to get updates about how our trip is going and for awesome giveaways.<br />

It is August already and kids are heading back to school. It is hard to believe. My daughter went back to school yesterday and started the 4th grade. I don't know about you, but I am not in any hurry to say good-bye to Summer. I am going to hang on to it for as long as I can. <br>
<br>I just wanted to take a minute to say "hi" and give you the latest details on Curiosity Quest. But, don't just let me be the one talking. I would love to hear from you too! Feel free to leave comments and tell me about what you are up to. Are you excited to start school? What do you look forward to the most? Can't wait to hear from you!<br>

Hey there CQ fans!<br />
<br />
It has been a long time since I posted a video blog. Sorry about that! I have missed you guys. <br />
<br />
It has been a very busy couple of months for the CQ crew. We have been hard at work preparing new shows for you. You will love them!<br />
<br />
In the meantime, I decided to read some of my recent letters to you. I get hundreds of letters every month, so it is hard to choose just a few. But, keep writing! Maybe I will read one of your letters for my Vlog.<br />
<br />
Thank you for being such awesome and dedicated fans! I love you guys!!!<br />

</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Well I has been on a whirlwind adventure this Summer. First I went to Florida on vacation with my Family. If you haven't visited the Florida Keys, you must do that at some point. It is one of those places that sucks you in and doesn't want to let you go. It is beautiful and peaceful and I already am looking to planning another trip there.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Right after my vacation, the CQ crew headed to Alaska to film 3 new episodes of Curiosity Quest. Can you guess what topics we focused on while we were up there? Sadly, it rained on us everyday during our shoot, but that did not hinder us, one bit, from having an amazing time. We met fantastic people, took incredible adventures and dined on unforgettable food. I will not forget how wonderful the experience was and what a joy it was to get to share all of that with my awesome crew!</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Here is my latest VLOG for you guys. Again, I am reading some of your letters. CQ has the greatest fans. You write hundreds of letters to me every week. I can't keep up :) Keep them coming and check out this video to see if I read your letter. </div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

Hey there CQ Fans!<br />
<br />
Sorry it has been a little while since my last post. These last couple of months have been crazy for Curiosity Quest. Anyway, here are some of your great CQ letters that you have sent to me! You guys are so creative and curious! Thank you for your ongoing letters and support. If I didn't read your letter out loud this time, don't worry, I will try to get to it next time :) We get thousands of letters every month, so it is impossible to get to them all. But, my crew and I read every single letter that is sent, so keep them coming!<br />
<br />
In the meantime,<br />
