Stars Were Exploding

I've been blessed in my life to have friends with impeccable taste in music, and many have been gracious enough to share their favorite songs with me. One that Michelle introduced me to is "Stars Were Exploding" by Good Luck. It's a very short song, but that's not the...

Every month, I host an event in Baltimore. So when Beth contacted me with the idea of a Happiness Experience field day kind of adventure, I was on board without a second thought! Over the past several weeks, we came up with ideas for different stations and called upon...
