6 Things My Mother Learned on Our Trip to Walt Disney World
Over the Fall of 2018, I treated my mom to a mother and daughter only Disney vacation. It was one of the things on my 27 before 28 list so I was very excited. Disney trips, or any trip really, are more fun with someone who is just as in love with the destination as you are. My mother and I share our love of Disney and Disney Parks. I have previously shared the five things I learned during my trip with my mom. As I was writing it I wanted to see if my mother had any ideas and she came up with a completely different list!

Why I Started a Blog
I have toyed around with the idea of starting a blog for years. My senior project at Drexel was essentially a blog about life in Philadelphia. I loved it. It gave me an excuse to go out and do things I would have talked myself out of or otherwise never considered.
