Will & Jada Smith’s Estate Take a peek inside Will and Jada Smith’s Calabasas, California retreat. Their beautiful 25,000 square feet home was featured in Architectural Digest for the month of August, 2011. Will wanted every thing done by hand. Jada wanted to create a family retreat, something as natural as possible, something that ties back to the land.

Ship Island Off Mississippi’s Gulf Coast

A lot of Mississippians would be surprised to know that we have a “Caribbean like” Island right off the coast of Mississippi.

Getting to the Island is as much of an adventure as being on the Island itself. It takes about 45 minutes each way to get to and from the Island.

For those who have never taken a cruise, being out in the ocean can be a special adventure.

While on the way to the Island you can expect to see dolphins jumping in the ocean waters and speed boats speeding by.

After about half way through the trip you can look back to see nothing but ocean waters as far as the eyes can see. Pretty soon you will see the first sign of the Island which is home to the huge Fort Massachusetts that was used during the Civil War. The National Park Service offers guided historical tours of the Fort.

When you reach ashore you can’t help but notice the beautiful clear blue water. As you stroll down the board walk you are delightfully taken to a beautiful Caribbean like beach. You have the option of staying all day or you can take the first ride back to shore.

They have giant umbrellas for rental. You can bring your own refreshments.

Fare for the Island excursion is $27 for adults and $17 for children. They operate between March 24th and October 28th.

BLUE IVY Beyoncé and Jay-Z recently decided to release photos of their newborn baby “Blue Ivy” to the public. Clearly they could have sold their daughter’s photos for millions of dollars.

A lot of people expected them to sell their baby’s first pictures to a tabloid or major magazine for millions. This goes to show that they are truly a class act.

How Is Your Weight Loss Resolution Coming Along?

The typical New Year’s Resolution is made during a time when we are feeling enthusiastic and hopeful. Then our resolutions fade into a New Year’s delusion. Delusional in the sense that we have good intentions but we don’t have a plan of action to back them up.

Weight Loss Goals

You can also get a weight loss buddy to achieve accountability. This could be a friend or family member who can encourage you and who will check in with you to make sure you are staying on track.
