This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Alabama Tourism. The opinions and text are all mine. We’re still in the middle of our family’s summer road trip, so it should come as no surprise that we are big fans of the road trip vacation. Last year, I traveled to Alabama…
Cousin Time #PSF
The kids have been loving the time they’ve had with their cousins this week at Grandma and Grandpa’s house. Like last summer, when all 16 of us were living under one roof for the summer, the house is kind of chaotic, but it’s a good chaos. Between the water park and the hot tub…
The Beach Days of Summer #PSF
There’s something relaxing and rejuvenating about spending a couple of days at the beach…even if the visit is short. Since our stop in Florida this week was a quick one as we start off our summer of travel, we tried to fit as much in as possible during our stay. I had to laugh…
Horseback Riding – Jackson, Wyoming #PSF
One of the highlights of my summer was horseback riding with my 15-year-old daughter in the mountains near Jackson, Wyoming. Necco was not interested in white water rafting with the rest of the family, and I was more than happy to trade in a wet suit for a pair of jeans. There are a…
Cousin Power! #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
Cousin Power! While the kids and I were in Utah this summer, we spent a lot of time with cousins. My mom and dad have 14 grandchildren between the ages of 17 (almost 18) and under a year. Sadly, not all of the grandkids were together at the same time (we had one group…
Devils Tower National Monument – #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
It feels like a lifetime since we stopped at Devils Tower in Wyoming. My husband has wanted to see Devil’s Tower in person since he was a kid who loved the movie Close Encounters of the Third Kind, and it just happened to be on the road between Mount Rushmore and Yellowstone as we…

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Gulf County, Florida for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine. As summer comes to a close and the kids head back to school, I am reminded why I love summer so much. Sleeping in, spending quality AND quantity time with family and friends, being…
Memories of Childhood Vacations #SensationalMemories
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Arm & Hammer. The opinions and text (plus old summer photos and childhood vacation memories) are all mine. Spending the summer with my mom and dad and my sister’s family of seven has certainly brought back memories of the summers that we used…
Sponsored Video: What Does a $1 Billion Relaunch Look Like?
This post is sponsored by Holiday Inn but all thoughts and commentary are my own. What would you do with $1 billion to relaunch… Your website? Your house? Your whole life? Tough question, isn’t it? I bet it got your creative juices flowing, though. New furniture. New appliances. New art work. I might even…
Boston Harbor Cruises {PSF/GMYBS}
After our first day in Boston was washed out by rain, we decided to take charge the next day and go ahead and buy a guided trolley tour (with Beantown Trolley) for the following day. We figured that if day number 2 was rained out as well, we’d at least be able to see…
