Last weekend our family was invited to spend a few days in the gorgeous town of Cashiers in Jackson County, North Carolina! The timing couldn’t have worked out better because we had an extra long weekend (thanks to a teacher work day!) which was perfect for a family mountain weekend getaway. Matt and I have …

We had the most fun weekend. Curious how and why? Let’s rewind it with this edition of Staycation Weekend Rewind! Friday Matt and I surprised the kids by picking them up from car pool together on Friday! The weather was unbelievably gorgeous outside so we ordered personal pizzas from Mod Pizza, I made my favorite …

To celebrate 10 years of marriage, Matt and I spent 5 glorious days in Sedona, Arizona. While planning our vow renewal, we both spent a lot of time reflecting back on our last 10 years of marriage and agreed that Sedona felt right for kicking off our next decade together. This beautiful destination has been on …

Last weekend we were invited to stay at Upstream Way’s Bohemian House in Asheville. The luxury vacation home is huge (sleeps 16!!) so we invited our friends to come with us. The house and the weekend were absolutely perfect. Shortly after dropping our bags off at the house, we headed a few minutes down the …

A few weekends ago our family was invited to experience luxury camping at Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park Camp-Resort in Golden Valley, North Carolina.

A few weeks ago Matt and I were lounging on the beach together without a care in the world in Turks & Caicos. Our trip was nothing short of amazing and it felt SO good to have 5 days alone with Matt to laugh, connect and maybe even cry a little bit (me — guilty!). …

We have returned from the most wonderful vacation in Seagrove, FL with my sister’s family. We were quite overdue for some happy family time and this trip was a huge blessing for us — one that we know Dad was smiling over the entire time. I am so unbelievably thankful that we were able to …

For Christmas we surprised the kids with a Disney trip…and then asked them to patiently wait 3 months to go. We promised them it would be worth the wait — and it so was! And honestly, this couldn’t have come at a better time. We desperately needed a fun reason to head home to Orlando. …

We spent a lovely weekend in Asheville with some of our best friends, Brynn & Palmer. Once upon a time they lived in Charlotte and ever since they moved away we’ve made it a priority to get together annually, sans kiddos, for a weekend in the mountains. Asheville is one of my favorite places on …

Last week we went GLAMPING! For the longest time I have been following Asheville Glamping and am obsessed with their domes. So when a one night stay unexpectedly opened up for Dome 3 I snagged it right away and anxiously began counting down the days till our trip… Thursday we arrived in Asheville just in …

Last week a group of 7 of us mamas spent a long weekend together in Folly Beach. This was our second annual Supper Club beach weekend and I didn’t think we could possibly top last year’s trip but we did — and we didn’t even have sunshine! The weekend was an absolute blast and it …
