Island Travel Interviews- Caribbean Islands, Take 10 (St. Barts)
Hi there! In my opinion, you can never plan too far in advance for a Caribbean Island getaway, especially if it is to a dreamy place like St. Barts. Two of my neighbor couples (plus one additional couple) recently traveled to St. Barts on a couples’ trip. Read on to learn more about what to do on St. Barts.

An Airbnb-Inspired Fridge Obsession
**This post contains affiliate links, meaning that if you click and purchase, I may receive some compensation. Thank you! Hello there! Have you ever stayed an an Airbnb and obsessed over the fridges (or maybe even just online like I do)? It only took about two days after we purchased the Beach Cabin for the decision to be made that a Retro Fridge was a must for our on-the-small-side kitchen. While I took a minor break from refrigerator shopping to choose cabinet colors and paint them, my mind quickly returned to obsessing over the fridge. For almost 6 months now (correction: close to a year) , I have had…

Island Travel Interviews, Australia (Gold Cost)
**This post contains affiliate links, meaning that if you click and purchase, I may receive some compensation. Thank you! Let’s learn about the Gold Coast in Australia with Megan from A Traveling Tribe! Megan and I went to the same college and then coincidentally (and so fortunately for me!) ended up at the same elementary school (for our children). And then, she moved on me! To Australia!!! It has been so much fun for my kids and me to FaceTime with Megan and her kids to hear firsthand all about their fun adventures and discoveries. The first time we attempted FaceTime, the kids basically just stared at each other, but…

Easy, Cost-Effective and Time-Efficient Flooring
**This post contains affiliate links, meaning that if you click and purchase, I may receive some compensation. Thank you! Apparently I have a thing for floors that I can’t afford (don’t we all?)… Part of the problem is that we travel… a lot. And sometimes we get to stay in the most stylish of boutique hotels… with the best trends and flooring. Here is the story of how I came to the Easy, Cost-Effective and Time-Efficient flooring shown above.

Here are some of the places we visited last summer… (If one peaks your interest, just click on the name of the town for a more in-depth and specific Mackinaw Road post on the area.)

This post contains affiliate links, meaning that if you click and purchase, I may receive some compensation… Thank you! Lovely mountain scapes, America’s largest private home, and a cafe with over 500 games… This is the Asheville we quickly grew to love. I have had my eye on Asheville for about two years and was so excited to finally be able to force my family to visit as part of our road trip to Hilton Head. It’s one of those situations where you hold your breath and cross your fingers that your family is going to love it as much as you already do in your head. And guess what?!?…

What to do in Savannah, Georgia (in 3 hours)
This post contains affiliate links, meaning that if you click and purchase, I may receive some compensation. Savannah, Georgia. It’s been on the list of places to visit for awhile now. We haven’t heard a bad review. And, yet, we didn’t quite know what to expect. During a recent family vacation to Hilton Head Island in South Carolina, my husband and I were able to drive the 45 minutes or so to Savannah, Georgia, for dinner and a walk. We were quite satisfied with all that we saw, but the 3 hours definitely left us craving a return visit in the near future.

Friday Finds on Mackinaw Road: Venmo, Viceroy Hotels, and a Cabin Update
Hi Everyone! Happy Spring (a little late). Here are some of the Friday Finds I’m loving this week. [This post contains affiliate links, meaning that if you click and purchase, I may receive some compensation. Thank you!] Venmo– To say I was hesitant to use this app would be an understatement. I hemmed and hawed but finally gave in because we went in on a parent gift with my husband’s sisters and they both use it and, well, it was pretty darn convenient. Then, I started asking babysitters if they used it… and most did! Again, it was pure convenience to text when we were five minutes away and then…
