In My Spontaneous Era

ast week was a whirlwind. As many of you know Taylor Swift made her Eras Tour stop in Tampa Thursday – Saturday.

We had gotten a great deal on Basic Economy flights, so I wanted to make sure to check in as soon as I was able, ensuring the best chance at good seats.

But our first leg from Tampa had none of us sitting together - not even our one-year-old, who was set to be all by himself in a middle seat!
