I love the downtown Mckinney area and was so excited to hear about Sugarbacon Proper Kitchen making…

There is nothing quite like jumping in a car and heading off for an adventure. I love taking road trips because you get to see and do so many more things rather than flying.

Working from home makes it very difficult to separate home life…

Bring cash for parking at the State Fair of Texas or ride the DART.
Even though the State Fair of Texas lasts almost a month long, sometimes our schedule doesn’t allow us to go more than once.
