We're back from a wonderful family Thanksgiving at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay! Here's our Day 1 recap. Our plan was to head out as early as possible, but had a few minor setbacks.

Build Your Disney Family
I was super excited to open my work e-mail yesterday and see that Disney is giving away free, customized decals.

As I watched the 9/11 coverage on the news yesterday, it reminded me of a weekend trip the DH and I took to New York City in 2010; our first couple's trip since the kids were born.

Since we rarely get to do anything just the two of us, this was a fantastic opportunity for some quality couple time. Well, at… Continue reading Mixing Business and Pleasure in Baton Rouge and New Orleans
