Mr. Chicken Fry nailed it. He booked us five prime time nights in a familiar, close to our hearts, sunny beach destination....Cancun, Mexico. We share a deep love for clear ocean water and white sand beaches and Cancun was a perfect hop skip and jump from Dallas, Texas. We were greeted and treated like royalty… Continue reading Mexico Gains
They say there is no place like home...but Orange Beach, Alabama gets pretty darn close. Also known as, Disney World, Orange Beach is the greatest family friendly coastal adventure in the United States. It's booming like crazy and I'm a tad conflicted about sharing this precious home away from home truthful tell all but hey,… Continue reading Orange Beach Tell All
Does anyone else feel like a crazed lunatic before leaving town? I was so much better at it in my mid twenties when less adulting and thought played into leaving the house for a week. Now it looks and feels a lot more like chaotic torture coupled with an endorphin rush that I have come… Continue reading Getting out of town
Jumping June bugs, it's almost the 4th of July! Many of you much cooler kids have already made your way out-of-town. You've stretched your legs on a sandy beach, taken photos in an Italian landscape, watched a Hawaiian sunset of six, hiked a mountain in Colorado or traveled abroad for a frosty shot of vodka… Continue reading Vacation Essentials re-visited
When I was a young preteen I spent quite a bit of time on the beach. I almost always had a friend and together we had two main objectives which were, in order of importance, our tan lines and our dribble castles! Duh, we didn't have cell phones. What we had was the beach… Continue reading Castles
Florida is a big place! So many options for family fun and beach shenanigans. I have a big (loud) gregarious extended family and twenty-seven of us thought it was a good idea to show Florida what we are made of! We came we saw and we made our mark that's for dang sure! TWENTY SEVEN… Continue reading Seaside
If I hadn't already named my hubby Mr. Chicken Fry I could easily come up with several other pertinent sarcastic yet fitting titles. One name that would certainly qualify is Mr. Spontaneous! He's almost spontaneous to a fault. Put it this way, in 21 years, there has hardly ever been a dull moment. And on… Continue reading Strictly Spontaneous
AlllaBama! Want to know what I liked best about Orange Beach, AlllaBama? Not one single person poked fun at the way I talk! See, I tend to linger a little on my Texas "I's" (as in ICE tea). However, my thick Texan southern drawl didn't hold a candle to the folks down in Orange Beach.… Continue reading Orange Beach
Happy Hump Day loves! So you know how I super dee super dig lifting weights and basically turned my passion into a thriving FITness business? Well...get a load of this... Typically I would feel exponentially cheated if I didn't at least lift two or three times while away on vacation. In a strange euphoric way… Continue reading Stairway to vacation
Back to reality! As you might know, I was recently in Florida for FITness and a whole lot of FUN. Despite two extremely very weak pitiful poor moments, I actually maintained a daper decent diet. Contrary to popular opinion, I'm ONLY human. I hate to disappoint you but as it turns out, I DON'T have disciplined super powers… Continue reading Back to LIFE
