I have been married to a wonderful man for 25 years. We got married very young so as he said we could: "have our children and still play with them." We had three children in 4 years - worked hard and played hard. My husband Wes worked 2 jobs when the kids were little so I could be home with them.

Abundant bodegas were filled to the brim with candy brands foreign and domestic; chocolate … [Read more...]
Old Florida charm in Panama City Beach
Panama City Beach in the Florida panhandle is one of those places that remind you of a combination of other places, a blend of kitschy charm found in Myrtle Beach, Atlantic City and Key West.
