Recently I had a chance to go away for the weekend with my hubby for a romantic getaway to the Semiahmoo Resort. In addition to looking forward to getting away with my hubby, I couldn’t wait to check out this resort that I had heard so much about! Semiahmoo is located on a narrow peninsula …
Hopefully everyone had a great weekend and enjoyed the start of the new NFL season! I love football, so this weekend marked one of my favorite times of the year. It certainly helped that my two hometown teams both got wins! Being a Kansas City born girl, the Kansas City Chiefs are definitely my hometown …
Have you ever felt like there are parts of your own city that you haven’t explored? We’ve traveled around quite a bit, and taken numerous trips into downtown Seattle, but the area surrounding Sea-Tac (Seattle-Tacoma) Airport, known as the Seattle Southside, has been a mystery to us.

We’ve been an American Girl family since 2011, when Faith saved up her birthday money to buy Julie. In 2012 Grace asked for Kit for Christmas, and we’ve been visiting our local American Girl Seattle store ever since. During our spring break we had a fun staycation getaway weekend with a special American Girl hotel stay …
