Disneynature’s Wings of Life Review
Last night, AJ, Reese and I sat down for an uninterrupted hour and a half. I didn’t do laundry. I didn’t blog. We watched bees and birds and bats. There were a lot of oohs and ewws and WOs! And there was a ton of learning. Just in time for Earth Day 2013, Disneynature has…
2012 Year in Review #Linkup
One of the greatest things about writing so frequently on my blog is that I can look back on the year and reminisce about all of the best moments. 2012 was full of travel (something I love!), great opportunities, and tremendous growth from my kids. I can’t wait to see what 2013 has in store….

Apparently I’ve been home from my travels long enough to start wanting to go back again. Truthfully, though, I never really wanted to leave Florida in the first place. Last month’s trip to Kissimmee and Disney World was both exhausting and rejuvinating at the same time. Our daily schedule was packed with things to do…
