Ten reasons why you would want to visit Virgina Beach

I am in need of a vacation! Are you???

How about a fantastic trip to Virginia Beach!!! Many of you know I live in Wisconsin so I would prefer to leave the state and see the amazing ocean and I think Virginia Beach would be a great place for me and my wonderful family.

Here are my top 10 reasons why I want to go to Virginia beach and why you should too:

1. Stress-Everyone needs to get out of the daily grind and have time to re-energize away from home. What a great way to relax then to go fishing on a pier, soak your toes in some sand, and eat some yummy food! :)

2. Build a sandcastle! My daughter loves the sand and I know we could build one magnificent castle.

3. The Virginia Aquarium would be a perfect day outing with our family of four. I love learning about all the animals of the sea and my daughter has shown a big interest in fish and turtles, but what is more exciting is the whale watching! HOW COOL! :)

4. I know I can convince my hubby to go to Virginia beach when I say "SURFING LESSONS." I think I will stay on shore with camera in hand and get some great photos of him learning the waves.

5. A kayak adventure with dolphins! I AM SOLD! I have always loved dolphins so this would be an awesome adventure in my book.

6. A visit to the National Aviation Monument, Francis Land House, or take one of the History Tours. I think this would be a neat way to teach my daughter about our history. Virginia Beach has a lot of history and I want to teach my kids about our history.

7. One of the first dates that my husband and I had was hiking. I think taking a hike up one of the trails at First Landing State Park or climbing up Old Cape Henry Lighthouse would bring back some memories of old past memories.

8. GO PARA-SAILING! That would be a brand new adventure that we have never done. I am all for trying new adventures. I think this would be a great hubby n wife date while on vacation!

9. Visit Mount Trashmore Park for the kids to have some fun. It is a must to visit a playground when you have young kids.

10. No vacation is a vacation until you hit up a water-park! I think our family would have a great time visiting Ocean Breeze Water-park, going down water-slides and swimming is a vacation must.

I could probably find 10 more reasons why I want to visit Virginia Beach but I think I will stop writing my list and start saving money in our vacation fund! :) I love when I can find a vacation spot that has so many things to offer...especially for a family. :)

Common Mistakes Made When Writing a Will

Writing a will should, by all means, be a simple thing. You want to make sure that your assets are being left to your loved ones and that your final wishes are being fulfilled. Usually, they are rather straightforward, but that doesn’t mean that they are entirely foolproof. Here, we’re going to look at some common issues that can lead to disputes or delays in carrying out your will. Image - CC0 License Not Having It Witnessed Correctly One of the most common mistakes when writing a will is not having it witnessed correctly. Wills generally require the signatures of at least two witnesses who are not beneficiaries or spouses of beneficiaries. If the will is not witnessed in accordance with legal requirements, it may be declared invalid, meaning your estate would be distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not align with your wishes. It’s important to follow the witnessing procedures exactly as outlined in your jurisdiction to ensure the will is legally enforceable. Chan...

About Sweet Andy's Cookies: The “Thank You” Cookie In 2009, Andrew (Sweet Andy) found himself in a position like so many others at that time in our past; the economy was quickly spiraling downward and he had left his job in the financial services industry. Although Andy had an MBA in Banking and Finance and had even written a book entitled, “A Guide to Taking Control of Your Investments”, he found himself to be disenchanted with the financial industry and left to pursue “other work.” The “other work” that Andrew pursued was with the Church and did not provide financial support for the family. During this time Andy and his wife, Lissa, struggled to find other forms of income. They did what they could for themselves and their five children but often it was not enough. But there were...
