My sister and I have always been extremely close. Since we were young, we would talk about remaining close and living near each other forever. We always planned on having children around the same time, and raising them to be close just like us. Unfortunately, life can sometimes get in the way of your childhood plans. …
We try to travel with our little ones as much as possible. Whether it be a flight to Arizona to see family or a drive to the beach to stay overnight. It is important that our kids see as much as we can show them at an early age. We have several trips planned this …

My In-laws rent a three bedroom house in Indian Wells, just outside of Palm Springs, every year for the entire month of January. The house is beautifully located on the golf course in Indian Wells Country Club. For the past three years, we have had the pleasure of visiting for a few days. The weather …
During our visit to Palm Springs, we were on the hunt for some fun activities for Kolton. A few people had mentioned a nearby zoo to us, called The Living Desert Zoo and Gardens, so of course we had to check it out. To our surprise, this was much more than a zoo. It was …
