Visit “Glow” At Cleveland Botanical Gardens

Even though I've lived in Northeast Ohio my entire life, I've yet to visit the Cleveland Botanical Gardens, a hidden gem in Cleveland's University Circle.

[Travel] Taking A Family Vacation In Washington, D.C.

  This picture kind of sums up our summer vacation to Washington, D.C. My son, being a goofball, bouncing off the walls and tables and everything else around him. It was crazy, in a good way.

My Family’s First Amusement Park Trip – Cedar Point, Sandusky, Ohio

Part of being a blogger is connecting with brands and companies. I used to resist this aspect of blogging because to me, that's not why I do this. I blog to inspire, to uplift, to encourage and to provide support. But recently I've come to enjoy it because I'm able to meet new people and give my family different experiences. This past week we were invited to come to Cedar Point on behalf of a … [Continue reading...]
