This post is in honor of my mom, Mary Lou. One week ago, she passed away peacefully after a 8-month battle with pancreatic cancer. It’s a terrible disease that took her from us way too soon. Life in the fast lane! Taking my mom out for a spin in the…
Where does the time go? That was certainly a question that Kevin and I reflected back on many times this past year. 2018 marks the 2nd year that I captured a 1 second video clip every single day on my iPhone. I didn’t miss one day! Check out the full…
Traveling to Panama City, Central America? And looking for an ideal 1-week itinerary? Well, you’ve come to the right place! When Kevin and I began planning our 7-day vacation in Panama, I was a little overwhelmed. Beyond seeing the Panama Canal, we weren’t really sure what else would be unique….
