I’m thrilled to have a new lunch place in downtown Orlando. And a great one at that!! The decor is very stylish. A lot of wood, a lot of funky light fixtures and a beautiful looking bar. I like that it’s very open to the outside and just overall feels very comfortable. We started with…
I don’t know about you, but May was a rough month. I was sick, tired, school was ending – just a lot going on. I didn’t get to the gym as much as I would like. But the good news, I did spend a lot more time riding my bike – able to hit the…
Our Memorial Weekend was such a crazy whirlwind, I think I’m still trying to catch my breath. This is a long post, lots of pictures. But there’s so much to share! My husband and I were celebrating our 13th wedding anniversary over the weekend. We typically don’t go gifts, but plan a night out to…
My husband and I are celebrating our 13th wedding anniversary this year. It’s hard to believe that we’ve been married that long. So I thought it would be great to look at our wedding photos. Since we got married in 2000, smartphones and videos weren’t around at all. And it was way before social media…
We are big fans of the Disney Vero Beach Resort. Vero is about two hours away from Orlando. Disney also has resorts in Hilton Head (which is awesome!) and one in Hawaii (which we have not been to…YET!) Vero is great because you don’t even need to leave the resort for anything. (Other than the…
Did you even realize that the first wildlife refuge in the entire county was here in Florida? Not only that – it’s just a short two hour drive from Orlando?? I stumbled upon the Pelican Island National Wildlife Refuge while on a great bike ride down the Jungle Trail. I had no idea it was…
We love staying out at Disney’s Vero Beach Resort. (More to come on that in a later blog…) We have been there a number of times and it’s just about the perfect vacation spot. It’s about a two hour drive from Orlando, close enough but not too close. This time, I figured I would bring…
Washington, D.C. to me is all about history, monuments, lots of walking and hanging with friends. It has rarely been about food. Typically when I visit, we are grabbing food on-the-go or stumbling to the next bar. But this time, I was determined to dig deeper into the DC food scene. While I wanted to…
My little man is obsessed with penguins. He has been ever since I can remember. We have penguins in all shapes and sizes. Including full on flannel penguin bed sheets, pajamas, necklaces, cups, plates….you name it, we’ve got it. When he grows up, he…surprise, surprise…wants to work with penguins. And be a BMX biker. He’s…
It took us awhile to get moving after a crazy long day 1 in Washington, D.C. This is a rare sight to me…but was much needed: We went on what seemed like the longest trip ever. Started on the Metro train, was detoured to a Metro bus….and then had to walk forever, just to…
