This morning I put my Big S on the bus for his first day of first grade! Little S has been wandering around the house since he left. She sat on his bed and played with his cars for a bit. Then she watched some TV (happily holding the remote which she nevers gets!). I was able [...]
I am going to spill one of my travel secrets.
I love to find television and film locations when we travel. Any film. Any television show.
There I said it.
Not only do I love to find television and film locations when we travel, but I photograph them.
And I film them.

Today I am dreaming about appreciating what I have in front of me in my own hometown. This post was inspired by a recent post at Dim Sum, Bagels, and Crawfish. Lucia posted a picture of her holding some of the teeny tiny shells that she found on an Italian beach. That picture called to [...]

This angers Poseidon and he makes Odysseus’ return home a long and difficult journey. These waves might not look [...]

Today I am dreaming of the Type-A Mom Conference, a blogging conference where men and women join together to learn more about the business of blogging and all that goes into it. This will be my first conference and I am very excited to attend. It is a smaller conference than some of the others [...]
As I posted last week, we love photo cutouts. My family will drop everything and demand to have their picture taken if they see a photo cutout. By your comments (which I appreciate so much!), I have found that we are not the only family! I would love for you to share your photo cutouts with me! [...]

If you visit this blog regularly, you will know that I have dreams of New Orleans often! My husband and I honeymooned for a week in New Orleans and we love to return any chance we get both without and with the kids! It is just a few hours away so it makes for a [...]
