The San Antonio Zoo welcome two new rhinos and the savanna is now a thing. I love the San Antonio Zoo. I will always love it. I have so many memories of my childhood and so many memories of taking all my kids to the San Antonio Zoo…and today, I’m really excited to bring you…
I wrote a while back about the benefits of taking a vacation in the winter. If you live in a warm climate like we do, you can go on a ski-break. If you’re braving the cold weather (and how about those crazy snows up North this year?) then a vacation getaway somewhere warm and sunny…
A Disney Cruise is a special and unique level of Disney magic that will spoil you for other cruise lines. To date, I’ve been on two Disney Cruises and we’ve just booked our third. I think cruise vacations are awesome no matter who you sail with but Disney is always gone to be top of…
