we’ve been played: travel mishaps
We’ve been “played” several times while going on our vacations. Meaning, tricked! Hoodwinked! Lied to! But not hijacked. Continue reading we’ve been played: travel mishaps
movie review: love begins
Emma and I were going to watch the eighth movie in the Love Comes Softly series, if you’ve never seen these I don’t know whether to tell you to keep avoiding them or check ‘em out, but alas, it was unavailable so I picked up Love Begins, a prequel to the series.

the best places to travel with kids
Do I have kids? No. Have I traveled with a kid as an adult? Yes. I’ve enjoyed seeing a couple of National Parks with my niece who was around 5 and 6 years old when I traveled with her. She got so excited when she was able to get her junior ranger badges at each site. Plus, I grew up going to historical places on … Continue reading the best places to travel with kids

Because Catherine read the first one and asked me to read the second and let her know what happened. It’s A Blessing for Miriam: Land of Promise Series. Continue reading book review: a blessing for miriam
movie review: his girl friday
I saw that the movie His Girl Friday starring Cary Grant is on Amazon Prime and decided I was going to watch it. I invited Mariah over and we settled down with little to no idea what was going to happen. This may very well be my favorite Cary Grant movie, although Charade is also really good.
