Volunteering for The Door of Hope in Johannesburg, South Africa

Thursday, February 16th, 2012

Alyssa’s first week in South Africa, volunteering for The Door of Hope, was let’s just say a bit of a hard transition. I know we’ve run it into the ground around here, but we are a close family. It would be hard for anyone to leave everything she knows behind and move to a country [...]

I would first like to establish that I DO think students should cover the Holocaust while studying WW2. Teachers should cover Hitler’s regime, the desperate [...]

Dolphin Tale: A Family Friendly Movie Review

Saturday, February 4th, 2012

The movie Dolphin Tale came out on the big screen September 2011, just as we were making our annual family pilgrimage to the beaches of Florida. One of the things we treasure most about our time at the beach, is watching the dolphins play in the water. We watch them from our balcony early in [...]
