A Grand Canyon Family Adventure
The Grand Canyon is a fantastic place for a family adventure. I was worried at first. My nature is to foresee the worst possible outcome and worry about it fanatically. So of course, I pictured my children tumbling over the edge. But thanks to my tight grip on tiny wrists we avoided that. It was in fact, one of my favorite vacations so far. We spent a week exploring Grand Canyon National Park in November. One of the great things about the Park is once you enter, you don’t really need to leave until you are ready to go. There are plenty of affordable places to eat within the…

I don’t know about you, but the holidays have snuck up on me and we still need to get the tree (and decorate it) and buy some presents!

Tips for Keeping Your Furry Family Safe this Holiday Season!
One of my favorite childhood stories I like to share is the one where my little brother (though 6″ feet tall he’ll always be my little brother) thought that our Standard Poodle, Max, ate the Easter Bunny one year. He was around four years old and we were walking down the stairs on Easter morning only to find that Max had eaten our baskets filled to the rim with candy. The chocolate was smeared all across our white carpet. My brother started crying thinking that Max had eaten the Easter Bunny as well! To this day I can hear his little voice crying “Max ate the Easter Bunny!” My…
