We just got back from our first family trip to the beach and I wanted put together a quick list of what we packed. I know many of you had questions on packing for littles, so hopefully this is helps. Our families have spent many summers traveling to 30A, but this is the first time Austin and I have been with the boys. It was so sweet to see them at the beach and it was a great week full of family memories. But, we are definitely exhausted. ...
We took the boys to Disneyland over the holidays, which included a flight from Dallas to Orange County. Since I got a lot of travel-related questions, mainly pertaining to doing it with toddlers, I wanted to write everything out. Honestly, I'm always interested in how other parents do it with little kids because it stresses me out - so I hope you find something useful here! ...
A few weeks ago we went to Aspen for the fist time and absolutely loved it. Austin was turning 35, so we wanted to celebrate him and go somewhere that's always been on our bucket list. We usually never take snowy trips because we love the beach, but this trip really surprised us. We loved Aspen. So much, that we are planning another trip for next year. It was wonderful, cozy and there is so much to do. ...
Austin and I snuck away to Aspen to celebrate his birthday and we're absolutely obsessed with this town. If you haven't been, it's such a chic, quaint mountain town, and I highly recommend visiting!
By popular demand, I'm sharing everything I packed for this trip, plus other ski + snow picks that have caught my eye. Quick reminder that you can always shop my full looks on my LTK account here. ...
With the holidays approaching and a busy travel time of year, I wanted to share the travel essentials I never leave home without. I packed all of this for our recent Vegas trip and it inspired me to write this up for y'all. I'm always so interested in what people pack, so let me know what your travel must-haves are in the comment section. ...
This past weekend Austin and I celebrated my birthday with a staycation in Dallas. It was so much fun to have a weekend just the two of us and truly relax. It's a great way to "get away" without actually getting away. Highly recommend a staycation if you are getting the travel bug, but not ready to fly.
We've done a few staycations this year and I wanted to share what I typically pack for a staycation. I keep it low-key and try to eliminate any extras I don't need. I hate unpacking and this saves me from putting back the things I didn't even wear or use. ...
Birthdays have looked much different this past year and with Austin's birthday (today!), I wanted to celebrate him in a way that was safe, yet allowed us to feel like we were on an actual vacation. I surprised him with a Dallas staycation over the weekend and we had the best time. ...
We went to Austin a few weeks ago and had the best time exploring the city. Being in Dallas, we aren't too far away from Austin...I don't know why we don't go more often. It's a great place for a girl's trip, weekend getaway with your partner or family. We should definitely go there more! ...
This post has been a long time coming, but I figured it'd be more helpful to write everything out vs share in stories. I know a lot of people travel to be with family and friends over the next couple of months with Spring Break and Summer, so if that happens to be you - and it's your first time flying with a baby - I truly hope sharing what Aus and I learned in our experience is helpful. ...
We just got back from Vegas for our first official trip post-George and though we talked about him probably every 10 minutes, it was truly so fun to get away and just have time for Austin and I. We didn't even bring our laptops -- we literally unplugged the whole weekend from work and it was amazing. If you are a workaholic -- I suggest unplugging every now and then. So good for mental health. ...
