I mean we aren’t actually going to Disney today, I mean we aren’t actually going to Disney today, but wouldn’t it be nice if it were really this easy? šŸ˜‰

We are going later in the spring and I can’t wait to tell you all about it. But before that happens, I am headed back to the beach THIS WEEKEND! I am attending a travel writers conference at the beach and cannot wait. I will of course be sharing as I go, so don’t miss it y’all! 

Also, Dolly didn’t mind helping in my little experiment. šŸ˜‚ Love that doodle.

My friend Jamie and I were hosted by @tennesseanhotel in Knoxville for a fun Galentine’s Day tea, dinner, drinks, overnight stay, and yummy breakfast. It was a blast and I would do it all over again!

Thankfully, the hotel hosts a special tea a handful of times a year, so you still have an opportunity to check out some special events! Our tea had amazing cocktail pairings that were so fun! 

The boutique hotel is gorgeous and has 82 rooms spacious rooms with luxury amenities.

The drawing room hosts teas, meals, and drinks and is cozy with windows overlooking the Sunsphere.

The Tavern is in the middle of the hotel and the @makerexchangeknox and the @marriottknoxville, so everything is so close and walkable. (The Maker Exchange hosts events too, like the Barbie film and food I mentioned last week!) 

If you are local this is a perfect staycation, or if you are coming in town the hotel is in a great spot to explore Knoxville. We had a lovely time and I can’t wait to bring my husband next time!

We have had a tough few months here and it’s times like these that really test love—not the honeymoon phase romantic kind, but the be there through thick and thin kind, and I am thankful. 

Do you celebrate this day?

HAPPY MARDI GRAS! šŸŽ­āšœļøšŸ’œšŸ’ššŸ’› Everywhe HAPPY MARDI GRAS! šŸŽ­āšœļøšŸ’œšŸ’ššŸ’›

Everywhere else it’s just Tuesday. Even for a transplant like me who grew up in a suburb of New Orleans and now lives in Tennessee, it’s still Fat Tuesday today!

Emma Kate wore beads to school and Bobby wore them today too. I will be decked out as well, and we will eat king cake shipped to us from Gambino’s (IYKYK.) 

Fun fact, I didn’t know Mardi Gras wasn’t a national holiday until 5th grade when a pen pal I had in Georgia was confused when I told her I was out of school for the week for the holiday. šŸ˜‚

Going to parades and eating king cake every day was just part of life for me, and I miss it. Doesn’t stop me from decorating my front porch and inside my house for Carnival season though! šŸ˜‚

Scroll to the last pic for a throwback to me and @bobbymontg’s first Mardi Gras parade weekend together many years ago! 😜

The first pic is from @visitowa a few weeks ago. The rest are from NOLA.

Laissez les bons temps rouler! (Let the good times roll! šŸ’ƒšŸ»)

It’s cruise booking season! 🚢 Here are 3 ea It’s cruise booking season! 🚢 

Here are 3 easy first timer tips to make sure you have ā€œsmooth sailingā€ for your vacation!

1.) Fly in the day before: If your flight gets delayed or cancelled, the ship will NOT wait for you! To avoid stress or potentially ā€œmissing the boatā€ (pun intended!) Arrive the night before, and get a good nights sleep so you are ready to go on the day you sail! Which brings me to my next tip…

2.) Arrive at the port early. Depending on size of the port, there will probably be traffic, then you have to check in, deal with luggage, etc. arrive early so you don’t have to rush AND you get to maximize time on the ship/get your vacation going earlier!

3.) Before you leave home, research each port you will be stopping at. Book excursions well in advance. If you plan to do your own thing, that’s cool too, but at least have a loose idea of where you plan to go and what you plan to do so you don’t waste time wandering around trying to find something fun!

Don’t forget to sit back, relax and pop the champagne. You are on vacation!!! šŸ¾ 

These clips are from our Virgin Voyage in early 2023. If you are looking for a cruise and your kids aren’t coming, I HIGHLY recommend this one! So. Much. Fun.
