  • Happy 5th Anniversary (to me!) Happy 5th Anniversary (to me!)

    Five years ago I started this blog to share my stories and adventures of my life in Hong Kong. I was headed overseas for a 4-month assignment and thought a blog would be a cool, inexpensive way to stay in touch with my family and friends.

    The Disney Social Media Moms Celebration officially wrapped up four nights ago and I'm still in recuperation stage.  Although today I finally was able to put in a full work day without zoning out.

  • 2010 is here! 2010 is here!

    Who was it that said "the dawn of a new decade?"  I think most of the world was eager to ring in 2010 and say good-bye to 2009.

    All I can say is what an amazing time we had aboard the Disney Magic on our 7-night Caribbean vacation to Key West, Grand Cayman, Cozumel and Castaway Cay - and during the Christmas season!

  • To my friend Derek Peterson To my friend Derek Peterson

    Derek, I want you to know how much you meant to all of us. You were sweet, innocent and the nicest person I've ever met. I sit here with tears streaming down my face because I can't believe you are gone. I didn't even get to say good-bye to you. I think our last hallway conversation was a joke ab...
