It’s good to be home
So as I sit down to write this, I am realizing there are two paths here. Do I just sugar coat everything? Nahhhhhh. What fun would that be? So I’ll venture down both paths…. but really I can sum everything up with the statement […]

Hurricane Vacation Brain
So there was someone who had to be airlifted off the boat in Key West due to a medical emergency. Part of me wondered what happened, but when you are on vacation, you just take information that you are given at face value. Curiousity is muted. My analytical […]

Professional Portraits
My husband and I have never had professional pictures that we have both loved. We struck gold on the cruise. There was an awesome photographer and he took some beautiful black and whites of us… And then took some awesome ones of the kids!

What would you do?
If there was a pandemic flu outbreak with a mortality rate over 25%, what would you do to protect your family? Would you pull your children out of school? Would you change your habits? I’m just curious….

A tale of two irritations
Did you know that when you go get passports for your kids that both parents have to go? They do this so one parent can’t leave the country without the other one knowing it. So if you are planning on doing that, make sure you get the passports done before it […]

Enjoying the moments
Happy Weekend!
Went and saw Must Love Dogs with some girlfriends last night. Don’t waste your money on it. Diane Lane was a pleasure to watch, but the movie was incredibly predictable.
We were celebrating a friend’s birthday and went out to dinner at a small Italian place in […]
