More House Guests
January 16, 2009 By 10 Comments
When you live in Florida, you seem to have a lot more house guests than say if you lived in Alaska. Since we live so close to Disney World too and to a beach (a small one, but a clean, quiet one) our friends and family visit us quite often. We love having guests here. [...]

Caylee Anthony Body or Not?
December 11, 2008 By 4 Comments
I’ve been watching glued to the TV today. I heard about the body found just 15 houses from Casey Anthony’s home. Since I saw that I thought back to when she Caylee Anthony first went missing. And I cried. There’s no definite news that the body found is indeed Caylee Anthony, but the odds sure [...]
