I started this blog with one daughter, kept it up with the other, to spend time together doing something we enjoyed.
However, things change and people evolve. My daughters are older, busier, and not as interested in writing.
From now on this blog will be mostly mom with occasional contributions from my daughters and maybe even my husband.
Nothing else will change. We'll still focus on sharing fun places to go, fun things to do, and more, and we would  still love to hear your views too

  47. I once sent a letter to my hubby in boot camp. Only I forgot his last name on the letter. I had sprayed perfume on it and put it in a pink envelope. There were at least 7 Mike's in his unit. The sergeant made a big deal of it and my poor Mike was embarrassed, and told me the all about it. I felt so stupid. At the time I just thought of him as Mike! But we laugh about today.

  69. I wrote my fiance love letters all the time when we first met. I would list all the things I loved about him. From his hair, to his feet. I would tell him that I loved we were almost a year apart in age and how both our birthday's are in the summer time. And that everything with us seemed to click so perfectly. He loved getting them. :) I still write him small love letters every so often 8 years later.
