It’s a Saturday Giveaway!

Happy Saturday!  This is the first weekend in a long time that my family has all been home for the whole weekend.  It is completely wonderful.  It also has given me some “down time” to dream up some more trips I want to take.  Hi, my name is Mommy Points and I am a travel schizophrenic.  While being home, I have done a little bit of cleaning, and came across… Read the Rest.
