Travel

The summer is wrapping up and with that comes a natural shift of gaze from one set of to-dos to another. If you're like me, you've already started a back-to-school shopping list, outlined your morning routine, and purchased stickers...

It was a perfect day. After a year of anticipating our visit, our family was finally at Disney Land. We couldn’t have been happier. The weather was wonderful. Our three kids, ages eight, five, and three, had done surprisingly well...
