It’s been awhile we left for our Carnival Cruise aboard the Carnival Breeze out of Galveston, Texas. My whole family loved our trip – it was so, so, so much fun (see below for all the posts about our trip!). But today I want to share all of the logistical information I thought might be …
Earlier this month we visited Florida for the first time. We stayed for five days in the Florida Keys and then had an extra day tacked on at the end. Super, duper, extra last minute, we decided to drive up to Orlando and do Universal Studios because why not, right? I mean, when in Florida…! …
One of my goals is to visit all 50 states. One thing I’ve learned about traveling in our country is that each state can be so different from the next. Sometimes you cross a border into a new state and can just feel the energy and vibe change, and I love that about our country! …

We did it! We went crystal mining – the one activity I wanted to so badly that we built an entire camping weekend around it. It ended up being better than I expected (so. many. crystals.) and for me, the highlight of our weekend. We went crystal mining in Mt. Ida, Arkansas at Wegner Crystal …
A few months ago, Charles and I decided that spending time outdoors, in nature, with the kids, was going to be a huge priority in our lives. We’ve started small – by getting out every weekend and taking the kids (and dogs) hiking on local trails. But we also took it a step further and …
