We celebrated our sunshine, Caasi, with a memorable graduation cruise! 🎓🚢 Even the dining room staff joined in the celebration, making it extra special.
With just 2½ weeks until move-in day, we're excited for this next chapter as he begins his college journey.
If you'd like to support Caasi with dorm essentials and other college needs, we'd be truly grateful if you'd consider purchasing an item from his Amazon Wish List: amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2Z…
Thank you for your love, prayers, and support! 💙🎉
We enjoyed a delicious meal at Fishlips in Port Canaveral! 😋🌊
Great food, beautiful waterfront views, and the perfect way to wrap up a much-needed vacation. Feeling refreshed, recharged, and grateful for every moment! 💙☀️
