FRIDAY- Day 3 GRACELAND We had 9:45 a.m. tour tickets for Graceland on Friday, so we got up and just had breakfast at our condo and got ready to go. Graceland was only about a 10-12 minute drive from the condo, so it was very quick and easy to get to! We paid the parking… Continue reading Day 3 Memphis Recap! Graceland and more.
Wednesday (Day 1): Left home after work (late afternoon) and drove ~5 hours! We all rode together in our van (my parents came along on the trip, too) and a major highlight of this first evening was listening to Elvis music and other 50s-60s music on the ride down! I played DJ from the front… Continue reading Memphis Trip Recap – Days 1 and 2!
We're back! Actually, we got back on Sunday evening, but I was too exhausted yesterday morning to get up early. It was the best little trip!!! It's not too often really that we take these "long weekend-type" trips. I guess when I plan travel for our family, I typically think of the full, week long+… Continue reading Back from Memphis
Hi!! Jumping on for two seconds to say...see ya next week! We have packed our blue suede shoes and are ready for a little less conversation, a lot more action. 😊 (So dorky. I'm sorry. Couldn't resist.) We are off to Memphis in a couple hours (driving part way tonight and will get there by… Continue reading It’s Now or Never
Yesterday was a day that felt longer than most. Not in a bad way, but it just seemed to have significantly more hours in it than other days. This is, of course, not true- though I suppose it technically had more waking hours for me than some days. I was up at 5:30 a.m. and… Continue reading A day with many hours
One very fun thing about keeping any kind of journal or written record of your life is being able to look back on it. Since we are sitting right around the 1 year mark now for the whole Coronavirus situation exploding in our faces, I decided to look back on what I was thinking at… Continue reading Quoting myself from 2020
Since I started this blog within about a month of the pandemic really hitting the U.S., it has become a place for me to document so much about these unprecedented times we are all living in. No matter how long I end up having this blog, I am so glad that I've had a place… Continue reading Disney + COVID-19 pandemic
One of 19 times riding Expedition Everest on this trip. Yep, definitely their favorite. I know Disney is always a hot topic in travel circles for families with kids. There are MANY websites, blogs, etc. entirely devoted to Disney, written by hard core Disney enthusiasts. Some people are seriously almost cult like in their Disney… Continue reading So, why Disney now?
Ahhh I say this every time, but after any time away I really do love getting back into my normal routines. I'm such a weird mix....I LOVE traveling so much but I also LOVE just being at home. 🙂 It's January 12th today and I'm excited to finally really dive into my "new year's" stuff.… Continue reading Normal life & fresh slate
We did it! We successfully pulled a major fast one on the boys and surprised them this past week with a very last minute trip to Disney World. They had NO IDEA it was coming. The surprise aspect was slightly anti-climactic, only because they were so confused that they weren't really able to react in… Continue reading Disney!!!
GRATEFUL KAE
