Last weekend Jonathan and I had a much needed kid free getaway at Waterstone Resort and Marina in Boca Raton, FL. I have lived in Florida all of my adult life and somehow this is the first time I have stayed in Boca. Most people think of Miami or Fort Lauderdale when the think of South Florida but Boca’s beaches…
I so desperately wanted to take the boys to a “real” pumpkin patch this year while we were in DC since we don’t have anything like this in Florida other than cute little spots set up with pumpkins to buy. I wanted to go out in the country and actually see the pumpkins growing out of the ground and pick…
Jonathan had to go to DC for work and the boys have never been there so we all tagged along and we only had about 3 days to really do everything before he had to be at his work seminar. I knew I wanted to fit in a trip out of the city to go apple picking and to a…
I am FINALLY working on getting all of my posts up from our Hawaii trip back in June. This is the first of many. I almost had a mini heart attack just now because I have been working on this all day and thought I just accidentally deleted it! Jonathan and I both had a dream that we were in…
Everyone has been raving about the new pumpkin cream cold brew from Starbucks including me! (And for good reason!) When I posted my DIY version in my stories on Instagram I got a ton of DMs about it so I figured I would just post the “recipe” on here. I first tried the PCCB (if a pumpkin spice latte is…
When do your kids start back to school? Mine start back the second week of August so “Back to School” is already on our minds. I took the boys to Walmart to pick out a few essentials. Who am I kidding? There is no way that cereal will make it until the end of this week let alone the second…
It’s that time of year again already…..time for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! This is my favorite sale because it’s all new fall items that are marked down rather than the end of the season sales with all of the leftovers. If you are reading this post you are probably already familiar with the sale but in case this is your…
I’m currently having a Harry Potter Marathon with my boys since it was too windy for us to go on a bike ride tonight (they said we can only watch the first 3 since they haven’t finished the other books yet and they don’t want to spoil them) but I’ve been doing a little shopping for some of our upcoming…
I am the palest Florida girl ever but who doesn’t want to be tan….especially in the summer and we have summer weather year round here so using a self tanner has become a huge part of my beauty routine. It’s slimming, helps to hide to random bruises that you have no clue where they came from (please tell me I’m…
I have searched everywhere for the cutest and most affordable swimsuits under $50. I used to spend over $100 on swimsuits until I realized how many cute affordable ones are out there and a lot of them are so similar to the expensive ones no one will ever know your swimmie was $12 instead of $150-$200. Living in Florida so…
