Have you ever had a moment when you felt like you stepped into a calendar? The Grand Canyon is 1 of the “7 Wonders of the World.” I got to see it with my family. It was long anticipated as we left the pick up spot a little before 7am, and we didn’t get to... Continue Reading →

One week ago I woke up excited to be in Vegas for another day! This was a day where things maybe didn’t go as planned, but we made the most of it. I stayed calm and confident as plans changed - which I normally need a plan and stick to it. My sister and I... Continue Reading →

A few weeks ago I went to visit my sister. We went to the Mall of America so that I could buy new clothes for starting my new job. As we were walking I saw some butterfly display. My sister hates butterflies, but I wanted to get closer. She kindly let me get close long... Continue Reading →

When was the last time you went to Target? Mine was about 3 hours ago. I went in to return some lightbulbs that were my third try to find the right bulb for my touch lamp. I was not going to buy anything - well at least not much. I had been reading a chapter... Continue Reading →
