Twenty-twenty-too Beach Walk
On this day 5 years ago we were walking and laughing and dancing and loving on the beach. The song of the day has been the theme for the last 5 years of the rollercoaster of life. We’ve learned to be flexible and focus on progress over perfection. We’ve been faced with a whole lot […]
