This is the closest that we will get to snow this year.
Last year we were sledding down mountains of real snow in Germany. It snowed on Christmas morning, the kids went sledding every day and my husband was able to ski as often as he wished. This year, we are staying in sunny Florida where [...]

I have a fake tree. It is a beautiful tree, but it is most definitely fake. Oh, that fake tree didn’t enter this house without a fight. Unfortunately, my husband and the fake tree won but I went down kicking and screaming! We bought the tree the day after Christmas and my husband couldn’t have [...]

Today I am dreaming of New Orleans…again! Only a short three hour drive away, New Orleans makes a fantastic destination for an overnight getaway. Yesterday I saw a commercial for Miracle on Fulton Street. Fulton and Poydras Streets in downtown New Orleans turns into a winter wonderland from November 27 to January 3. It snows! In New [...]

On our massive Virginia road trip, I drove the kids up to Hershey, Pennsylvania to meet up with an old friend. We visited Chocolate World (I have coined the trip Chocolate Disaster…that is for another post, another day!) and on the way home, we stopped for a potty break at Boyd’s Bear Country in Gettysburg, [...]

This week, for the first time, I am participating in You Capture over at I Should Be Folding Laundry. The theme for this week is the feeling of fall. Hmmmm…well, just this week did the thermometer drop below 90 degrees (we spent one weekend day at a water park all day!); however, when I think of [...]

This picture is of a very young me at Coca Cola World in Atlanta! During our first year of marriage, my hubs and I headed to Tennessee where we visited extended family for Thanksgiving. On the way home, we stopped for a night in Atlanta. That is where I fell in love with Atlanta, a bustling city with [...]

I found out that my sister has moved to the birthplace of Mr. Peanut, the mascot of Planters Peanuts. I made it my mission to find Mr. Peanut and a peanut factory to tour while we were in Suffolk. I knew my kids would get a kick out of it as we love peanut butter! Unfortunately, I [...]

I have always been fascinated by aquariums. When I was younger, I wanted to be an oceanographer…that is until I found out that most oceanographers actually got off the boat into the ocean. Being bizarrely afraid of ocean animals that might attack me, I quickly changed my career path. My love for all things water [...]

When researching our road trip, I headed to PitStops for Kids to see if there were any exciting finds right off of the interstates that we were going to be on. Mayfield Dairy caught my attention, because everyone in our family likes ice cream! We got a late start from our house, drove about 6 hours and [...]

We just got home a few weeks ago from a massive road trip in which we logged about 50 hours in the car, drove through 8 states, and visited several dear friends. This road trip had a mission though…to move my little sister and her two children to Suffolk, Virginia where she began her life [...]
