Things I Love!

Visiting New Years Past

This year The Captain and I will be celebrating our 10th New Years Eve together! That will be a decade of New years! I decided to get nostalgic and look through old albums. Sometimes I forget we’ve been together so long! I guess over time the years blend together, but it was fun to look back on some [...]

Christmas Traditions

I am sure all of you are pretty tired at this point of me telling you how much I love Christmas time, but guess what? You are going to have to hear about it again. Christmas is a holiday that is full of traditions in my house. Some may say that I am [...]

We Get By With A Little Help From Our Friends

Independent Woman

When I graduated from college, I never had the opportunity to move back home and and save money like most of my friends did. My husband was still in college, and I decided, that in order to make our relationship work, that I would rent an apartment on Long Island so that we could be [...]

On The Road Again

Easter is upon us, and for those of us with out of town family, it’s time to hit the road and travel to the family homestead! Pennsylvania here we come!

I am actually pretty lucky. My husband and I celebrate Easter on different days. That is, we do most years. (it falls on the same date [...]

After writing my post yesterday about the things I am thankful for, I was able to keep those thoughts in my head today and it made me happy. Therefore, I wanted to continue those happy feelings and talk about one of the [...]
