Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Mia Reef (February 2020)

I’ve always wanted to stay at the Mia Reef resort on Isla Mujeres which is on a small island off the larger island and has beautiful private beaches while just looking very tropical.

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – On A Roof (July 2016)

Mom and dad got invited to a rooftop thank-you event for clients of their financial advisor and managed to convince their advisor to extend the invitation to Shea and I even though our investment portfolios differed by more than a few zeros at the time!

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Become a Mini-Man With A Mini-Van (June 2014)
