Special thanks to Seaside’s Cottage Rental Agency for hosting this stay. All opinions expressed are my own. When it came time to think about what we wanted to do for Collins’ 2nd birthday, I thought it would be fun to skip a traditional party and turn the occasion into a relaxing staycation. With so much...
One of 30A’s most popular tiny towns, Seaside, FL and its New Urbanism design have become a darling destination for families over the past three decades and counting. The popularity is only growing and there are so many details that make this community the iconic vacation spot that it’s become. Delicious southern coastal cuisine, stunning...
My excitement level for this is OFF. THE. CHARTS. So… this December is going to be a bit different than our usual holiday “routine” with a whole new level of Christmas cheer. Instead of over-shopping and spending way too much on random things, I’m jumping ahead and trading in a few of our would-be gifts...

When it comes to choosing where you’ll lay your head for your next 30A vacay, the list of choices can go on and on. As a mom and entrepreneur with a small business, one of my favorite things to do is support other mom-owned businesses. I’m excited to share an adorable beach rental operated by...
This post comes in collaboration with Universal Orlando Hotels. All opinions expressed are my own. I am so excited to share more of our spring break trip to Universal Orlando on the blog.

Remember when I shared a little preview of our aerial adventure with Coastal Biplane on Instagram stories? It was so fun and honestly the most exciting thing I’ve done in awhile. I am so excited to share the full video that includes everything from our flight starting from Sheltair at ECP airport, taking off, flying...

So many holiday activities to enjoy this time of year! From movies to theatre and even the annual Christmas parade, I’m sharing some of my favorite things to do on 30A.

I was able to escape the usual routine and mom life for a weekend away with my girlfriend Samantha (who was actually one of my bridesmaids!) as we celebrated 10 years of friendship. We left our girls with our husbands and were able to soak in the beauty of Hutchinson Shores Resort & Spa, an...
This was my sixth year attending Miami Swim Week and it’s safe to say this is still my favorite event of the year. (Yes, it even tops NYFW for me, but more on that below.) I love everything about the Miami vibe and I feel right at home in a hot, humid and beachy locale...
Ahh, 30A donuts! When it comes to enjoying morning sweet treats on 30A, the donut takes the cake. Much like our local laid-back lifestyle, something simple and old-fashioned is the easiest way to score a gold star with friends or family. Whether you’re heading to Sandestin, Seaside, Alys Beach, Rosemary Beach or any of our other beach towns, these...
Here it is friends! I’ve rounded up my favorite local 30A places to eat, play and stay and even designed an adorable map just to help explain our area! My family moved here when I was a teenager and I’m coming up on 20 years as a local. (Wow, that makes me feel old!) If...
This post comes in collaboration with the Amara Cay Resort. All opinions expressed are my own. Because winter has been extra cold this season, I couldn’t wait to escape north Florida for a little fun and sun in the Keys. (Yes, even 30A has been frigid lately!) It was the first time I’ve traveled very...
This post is sponsored by Toyota. All opinions are my own. I only work with brands I love, so thank you for helping me support them! One of our favorite weekend getaways is just east of 30A to Apalachicola. It’s a quick trip, between one to two hours, and is so fun to escape to for...
