Oh, sigh. Life feels heavy at the moment. COVID is hitting Ivan's close friends & family circle hard in Mexico right now. I won't go into many details, as it's not really my story to tell.

So, why Disney now?
One of 19 times riding Expedition Everest on this trip. Yep, definitely their favorite. I know Disney is always a hot topic in travel circles for families with kids. There are MANY websites, blogs, etc. entirely devoted to Disney, written by hard core Disney enthusiasts.

Christmas 2020!
Fave Christmas Eve pic of the boys + hamsters! Ok, Christmas is really over now! My parents left a bit ago, the presents are mostly put away and the festivities have ended.

Thanksgiving 2020 is in the books. I love the fall-winter holidays so much that I actually get a bit sad when they are over. It just seems the whole season flies by every year...Halloween is over, now Thanksgiving. Now we are just down to Christmas! (and New Year's, which is nice, but not a holiday… Continue reading Thanksgiving
Beautiful day/ sleepless night
After getting to bed too late last night (my fault/choice), I woke up around 3 am after a creepy dream. It had a very scary (and very realistic!) climax which jolted me awake and literally had adrenaline buzzing through me for a few minutes. It was a perfect representation of how the mind/physical body are… Continue reading Beautiful day/ sleepless night
