What six things should you do in Aruba, especially if you’re traveling with kids? I’m glad you asked. đ Go to Renaissance Island Before we went to Aruba, I saw pictures of people frolicking with flamingos on the beach and I promptly put “frolic with flamingos on the beach” on my bucket list. I did […]
I did not participate in the Women’s March on Saturday, and I am loath to support it as a bystander. I do not write this to shame those who did participate. Many women who marched did so with genuinely good intentions. I too am concerned about President Trump’s objectification of women. That was one of […]
Elizabeth Caroline Craddock’s first month flew by! It was a whirlwind of fresh baby smell, visiting with family, snuggling with my sweet new daughter, and loving on her big brother. I loved every second of it. (Okay, maybe not the second when she squirted a massive poop across the room while I was changing her…) Instead […]
Our little family spent New Year’s Eve reminiscing & flipping through photos from 2016.

We visited Turks and Caicos (T&C) in March during Josh’s HLS Spring Break. Accommodations and food are pricey on Turks and Caicos, so […]

We have a home in Cambridge, two loving homes in Colorado, and we spend a notable chunk of our lives on the road. The concept of “home” is also complicated because we know we’ll only spend another year and a […]
While I was planning our trip to Iceland, I read several forums and columns that suggested you shouldn’t take your children to Iceland because they might “slow you down.” That’s just silly. And wrong. And a load of you-know-what. We had an awesome vacation in Iceland with Winston, and I think that Iceland is a great travel destination for any adventure-seeking […]
