Joe and I both believe that things happen for a reason. Last week one of our dear friends lost his beloved wife. Talk about putting tragedy in perspective. Our friend’s wife, Misty was truly a testiment to being an “inspiration”. Throughout her battle with colon cancer at the young age of 32, she was upbeat, postive and [...]

Recycled Dreams

I finally bought my first home. After almost two years of torture – Joe and I have closed on a new home in the Bluewater Bay area. Due to all of the previous last minute disappointments, I never really wrote a blog or posted anything about the house until we had the key in hand. [...]

Since I married the world’s most balanced beach photographer, I am no longer allowed to have any of the normal vices like excessive drinking, smoking or gambling. We do not own a swimming pool or hot tub, and my gym membership is more torture than relaxation. Having the gym access pass on my keychain stresses [...]

Ok, this is my second time writing the blog and I have a feeling you guys may have to adjust to a totally different writing style hope you all like it. Since the last blog we have been all over the country. We had just gotten back from Vegas and then I am sure Amber [...]

I just realized that I had not written a blog about all of the changes in our life recently – other than the impending wedding (cross your fingers – it looks like everything is falling into place!). I was the biggest dork growing up. We didn’t have a lot of money, and my parents could not [...]
14600 Days of Life

Joe’s 14600th day of life was shared with a houseful of special people and yes – we do mean ”special” in the most loving way. =) No one thinks Joe looks 40 - I firmly believe it’s because he’s accompanied by a 29 year old (10790 days) spunky, often mistaken for teenager – life partner. (He’s rolling his eyes [...]
McGuire’s Irish Pub – A Sunday Tradition

My father (Joe’s father-in-law) is truly a pain to take out to eat. Peter considers himself a gourmet chef and is highly critical of anyone else’s cooking. Even in a five star restaurant Peter will say after a perfectly delicious meal – “ahh, well – it wasa alrighta”. Yes – I just typed in [...]

Adam and Michael are extensions of the Mayer Family and we miss them the moment we know they are about to leave to go back to Orlando – so when we get a few moments together – we really cherish them. After a tasty breakfast on the Destin Harbor we strolled down to the [...]

I recently finished reading the book, Tuesdays with Morrie. I highly recommend anyone contemplating their purpose in life and has the tendency to be a workaholic or is often described as driven, or career focused – should read the book. It’s a memoir about a man that was obviously a gift to our society and [...]
Our Blue

Blue is one of those dogs that you can’t help but love but if she belonged to anyone else you would be thinking the owner should call the dog whisperer. Blue is a weimeriener and the breed is known for being high strung, but we rescued Blue from the pound and she is “special”. [...]
