Seasonal Creep – How Early is Too Early?

Halloween weekend, Caroline and I were driving to a friend’s wedding. Normally when we drive, we listen to podcasts. But we had just finished an episode and Caroline wanted a change of pace. So she flipped through the radio and Christmas music came on. She quickly switched it off but the damage was done. Christmas music the day before Halloween? Preposterous. We don’t even listen to it before Thanksgiving!

Expectations vs. Reality: A Beach Vacation with Two Small Children

Joe and I have gone on multiple beach vacations since we've been together. Joe’s family would go semi-regularly when he was growing up, my family would go occasionally when we visited my grandpa in Florida over the winter. Joe and his family had gone on beach trips with small children before, mostly his sister when she was young, but I had only been on adult beach trips.
