When in Rome? it is completely acceptable to eat until the buttons burst off your pants, and it is impossible to not be completely immersed in history. There are so many incredible sights and restaurants to explore in Rome, you could spend your entire life here and not experience it all. My husband and I…
There are skirts. And then there are skirts that make you want to twirl and skip through a park, not caring who’s looking. This skirt is definitely the latter.

It was heartbreaking to see the damage this tornado left behind. This was what sparked my interest in becoming a Red Cross volunteer. The…
When in the Bay Area, it is a truth universally acknowledged that one must make the journey to Wine Country. Sonoma and Napa Valley are both charming in their own ways. And who doesn’t like roaming through picturesque vineyards and sampling tasty wines? My personal favorite vineyard was Cline Cellars. It was not only a…
Our first official move in our quest for travel was to Foster City, California, near San Francisco. It’s a beautiful area, with many great parks, restaurants and a lovely running trail along the bay.
