While I was on my Los Angeles trip a few weeks ago, I was able to fulfill a life-long dream to visit Disneyland at Halloween Time. Disney gave us tickets to enjoy the day at Disneyland as part of our #VeryBadDayEvent | #DisneyAtHomeEvent. Although travel, accommodations, and activities were covered by Disney, all thoughts […]
One of the highlights of my summer was horseback riding with my 15-year-old daughter in the mountains near Jackson, Wyoming. Necco was not interested in white water rafting with the rest of the family, and I was more than happy to trade in a wet suit for a pair of jeans. There are a […]
It’s not every day that a post leaves me feeling warm and fuzzy, but this one did. This story is mine, and all thoughts and opinions are my own. I’m grateful to State Farm for giving me the prompt to write my thoughts down! This is my friend Kristin’s family. Kristin and her family […]
When we passed through Jackson Hole, Wyoming, this summer, 5 of the 7 of us went white water rafting on the Snake River (the other 2 of us went horse back riding, which I’ll be sharing very soon, I promise!). Everyone had a blast rafting. Although they couldn’t have cameras on the raft, I […]
OK, I realize that not all of these are selfies….but in just 2 days in Los Angeles I’ve taken and posted more pictures of myself than I have in the last 2 months. It must be the hair cut. I can’t wait to tell you all about the trip that I’m on…but for now […]
It’s hard to believe that I am still going through pictures from this summer’s trip. I suppose this is what happens when the 6-week-long road trip ends the day before school starts. We jumped right in to the fall routine and haven’t had a real chance to recover from the travel. Or maybe it’s […]
It has been 2 months now since our cross-country trek from Maryland to Utah (it’s hard to believe it has been that long!) and I am STILL going through photos from our trip for the first time. The beauty and majesty of the Tetons are almost indescribable. I had to hold myself back from […]
Cousin Power! While the kids and I were in Utah this summer, we spent a lot of time with cousins. My mom and dad have 14 grandchildren between the ages of 17 (almost 18) and under a year. Sadly, not all of the grandkids were together at the same time (we had one group […]
I’ve put off writing this post, not because I didn’t want to, but because I knew that I would have nearly too much to share. Yes, there may be a slight picture overload, but the Museum of Natural Curiosity was so fantastic and we had so much fun over so many visits that I […]
We never have been that adventurous…but this summer’s time away has changed that. On Labor Day, after a few hours of thrilling house cleaning, we drove out to the Potomac River and did a little boating. Other than the fact that the air was stale and muggy and hot, the afternoon and evening were […]
