My wish for all of you who are reading this blog and watching this vlog (video above) is that you’ll go see an important movie—the new Fred Rogers documentary, “Won’t You Be My Neighbor”. It is out in theaters and everyone should see it soon.

Changin’ It Up In 2018
Happy New Year!
We just returned from an amazing few days of fun in the sun in Florida. It was a very last minute decision to make this trip. We were supposed to go skiing in northern Vermont, but Mother Nature had other plans with extreme arctic record low temperatures in the forecast. So, we decided to switch gears and plan this spontaneous trip to Miami with our family. We called it our #YOLO trip!
Use This, Not That: Shampoo
Do you know what’s in your shampoo?
Most shampoos you find on the store shelves contain potentially harmful chemicals like surfactants that can cause skin irritations and allergies. They can also be contaminated with 1,4 dioxane, which is a known carcinogen. But it doesn’t stop there. Back in 2014, the Center for Environmental Health conducted a study and found 98 shampoos and soaps that were made with a carcinogen called cocamide diethanolamine (cocamide DEA), which was banned in California. Although manufacturers faced a huge lawsuit, only a handful have made changes to remove it from their products.
