Adults Only vs. Kids Trip to Disney World!
Living in Central Florida, I have the privilege of living less than hour from the Mouse himself. Growing up, I was always a big Disney fan, but now that my daughter shares my love of Disney, it’s even more fun! Recently, I had the opportunity to go on two trips to Walt Disney World less than two weeks apart. While I had an amazing time – they were both wildly different trips! In this blog post, I’m going to break down the two different trips, and share my tips and tricks for a successful day at Disney!

Our Telluride Summer Series Part 1: Planning Our Trip
Telluride, Colorado is known in history as the world’s first city to produce and transmit “alternating current,” an electric current used by power supplies to produce wide-spread electricity. It’s also the spot where infamous criminal Butch Cassidy committed his first bank robbery. Today, this former silver mining camp is known mostly for its stunning views, outdoor activities, and world-class shopping and dining experiences.

At more than 9,000 feet elevation, the Telluride Regional Airport is the highest regional airport in the United States. Commercial pilots are hesitant to land…

Top 5 Tips for Beach Trips with Toddlers!
Every summer, my in-laws host a trip to a little Panhandle beach town called Mexico Beach. Since I started coming with my husband, Mexico Beach has quickly become one of my favorite places to visit. Nicknamed “The Forgotten Coast,” the town has fought to hold onto its small-town charm and quiet beaches.
