After the Oscars I always find myself wistful. I like to consider myself a cinephile/movie fan. And after the Oscars I always catch myself just either trying to catch up on the awards movies I missed (I have a long list this year, didn’t even see Anora the best picture winner) and gearing up forContinue reading "Ranking my Favorite Movie Theaters Across the Country"
Ranking My Favorite Amusement Parks Across the Country
I love amusement parks. As I’m sure most people do, and I’ve been lucky to have gone to some all across the United States and I thought it would be a fun exercise to rank them. So without further ado... 19. Water countryNew England’s most famous waterpark. It’s not a lot to write home about,Continue reading "Ranking My Favorite Amusement Parks Across the Country"
Ranking my Favorite Walt Disney World Resorts that I’ve Stayed At
I'm going to try to rank my favorite Walt Disney World resorts that I've stayed at. To do this, I'll consider factors like proximity to parks and ease of travel to parks, theming, amenities, and overall vibe.

Ranking Every Place I’ve Been with the Navy

September is NICU Awareness Month
I haven’t really posted much about my birth experience, but have slowly started talking more about it with close friends.

I wasContinue reading "September is NICU Awareness Month"
Moving to Virginia
I haven’t been posting for a bit because sometimes living life gets in the way. My son had a cold and is still a little congested so he’s been needing more attention than previously, but I’m going to try to start writing while he’s napping. Before I start, I wanted to say that since myContinue reading "Moving to Virginia"
Becoming a Mom
Being a mom is hands down one of the hardest, best jobs I’ve ever had. Growing up, I watched my mom be super mom, so I had certain expectations for myself as a mom to meet what I saw her doing. She was a stay at home mom, and I’m lucky enough to be ableContinue reading "Becoming a Mom"
Welcome to My Mind
I decided for my first blog post I’d start by introducing myself. I’ve never been good at talking about myself and I think that you get to know someone better over time. This will just be a quick overall, but keep checking back if you want to learn more about me and my family. ToContinue reading "Welcome to My Mind"
