Last week the family and I was away on vacation. It was definitely a much needed vacation. This week I'm struggling to get my groove back on so bare with me.

Johnny fights me every chance I get so I … [Read more...]

Last Wednesday I took off for Boston for a TJ Maxx & Marshalls Event. Since I live in Western, MA I decided to drive as it would be faster then flying.

The second he saw the skyline of the city his eyes immediately lit … [Read more...]

We knew part of encouraging them is too make him aware of all we can and by bringing him to the Mystic … [Read more...]
