Each month we spotlight an organization or person who is helping to make the world a better place to see how we might be able to help out. Project Night Night: This month…

Take a Trip Back in Time with The Medieval Times Show
Last week I was contacted by the crew over at The Medieval Times to see if I would like to check out the show in Buena Park. I had not seen the show yet which is surprising since I have lived in Orange County most of my life (minus my college years and traveling). My seven year old was so excited to see real knights on horses fighting and jousting. A brand new show opened up this year and celebrates the California Castle’s 25th anniversary, The Medieval Times 30th anniversary, and its recent $2.5 renovation. We arrived just as the show was about to begin, but I would recommend to come at least an half hour…

Reflections :: Honoring Life’s Passings
In a few weeks it will be the anniversary of the death of my aunt Mary. I have written here about her before; she helped raise me in that my parents shared a house with her and her husband. Her daughter is the closest I will ever have to a sister. The kind that I talk to almost every day, stay up late waiting for, eat unhealthy food with, and sing songs badly and too loud for no reason other than because the car windows are down. We both just went through chaotic, emotional weeks of great change. While processing on the phone, we only barely touched at…
