Yes…I’m one of THOSE people. I’m sitting on a beautiful beach, the waves the only sound for miles, under a cabana, with my laptop out and updating my blog. Sorry folks, that’s how I roll these days. Life has been busy. Good busy. Lots of change, lots of big life decisions. I never thought I…
Ah…vacation. You never last as long as I would like. It’s our annual vacation spot. One week in a rental house on the beach. It’s perfect. I just wish it would last longer. Days are filled with bike rides, fishing, eating, drinking and pooling. That’s about it. There’s a great spot the boys love to…
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…
I love the beach. The sand between my toes, the sound of the waves crashing to shore, the smell of salt in the air. It’s my go to happy place. I don’t consider a vacation a real vacation unless there is a beach involved. But it also has to have a pool as I will…

I love pretending I live in a big mansion somewhere close to nowhere. Check out the photo gallery and some of my favorite houses. At this point, I need to win the lottery to even pretend to live there. Even the shack it out of my price range!!! Here’s more about Rookery Bay and Keewaydin…
One of our favorite vacation spots in the world, Marco Island. Each year we rent a boat and explore the 10,000 Islands. One day, I really would like to live on one of the islands. But until that point, I’ll just pretend. We anchor the boat at Rookery Bay and fish, swim and go shelling.…

A bonus of spending the Fourth of July on Marco Island. A surprise boat parade down the waterfront.
It’s vacation time! We are lucky enough to travel each year to Marco Island. If you like the beach, hot temperatures, boating and shelling, this is the perfect place. There are also a number of great little beach bars – so it’s the perfect family destination! There are a number of other options- but most…
A short spring break weekend brought us to Clearwater Beach. I haven’t been in ages…. It’s part of our effort to hit all the beaches in Florida – because see, it’s important to have a goal. Of all the beaches I’ve been to – can’t say I’m a big fan of Clearwater. But, I…
