I’ve been married for almost 7 years. When I ReMemBer my dating days with Doug, I cherish all of the little notes and letters we gave one another.

This summer my family spent 9 AmAzInG days in Disney World. It was the first trip for my two kids and the second trip for my niece Taylor.

Ah… it’s FaLL! And although I am always sad to see summer come to an end, there are so many things about this NoStaLgiC time of the year to love.
