“My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.” — Maya Angelou
I live for these little moments. It would be great though if time could just slow down a little bit.
I get very nostalgic whenever we head down to Disneyland. We’ve been coming since the kids were babies and every time we go it brings back sweet memories. I’ve already warned my kids that they better continue make the trip with me, even when they’re adults! 😂
If you are wondering, I do have our scrunchies linked in my bio and on my LTK. Aren’t they the cutest! https://liketk.it/4iQqD #momlife #momlifeisthebestlife #momlife❤️ #nostalgia #littlemoments #disneymom #disneyfamily #disneyfam #disneylandresort #disneylandcalifornia #itsasmallworld #scrunchie #disneystyle #ltkfashion #ltkfamily @shop.ltk @disneyland @disneyparks @disneyfamily #disneymagicmoments

Who else could use a little “dolce far niente?” This looks a whole lot better than the school drop off line that I’m currently in right now! #dolcefarniente #cinqueterre #cinqueterreitaly #vernazza #italy #italytravel #italytrip #familytravels #travelingwithkids #beautifuldestinations #beautifulplaces #sweetnessofdoingnothing #momlife #mombreak #mommentalbreak #stayingblonde #europetravel #travelinspiration

Nothing gets me in the mood more for Halloween than visiting Disneyland during this time of the year! Are you ready to jump straight into Halloween or do you just want to enjoy a little fall first? My kids are begging me to put up the Halloween decorations this weekend. I think I am going to try to hold out for one more week! #disneylandhalloween #pumpkinmickey #disneylandcalifornia #disneyfamily #halloweentime #halloweenready #disneymagicmoments #momlifebestlife #momof2 #momofteensandtweens #momofboth

Have you ever loved a piece of clothing so much that you bought it in different colors? That is me and this swimsuit top!
I originally bought it in the cream for our Europe trip. I ended up loving it and wore it so much that I bought it in black as well. It is probably the most comfortable bikini top I’ve ever owned. It also looks really cute under a button up shirt.
I almost can’t believe that it’s mid September and I’m still getting wear out of it. We spent the weekend at Disneyland. Since it was hot we took advantage of the pool before we had to get into our costumes for the Oogie Boogie Bash. I can’t wait to tell you all about it!
I have my suit linked here https://liketk.it/4izSZ and in the link in my bio. #montceswim #grandcalifornianhotel #whatiweartoday #swimsuits #bikini #bikinitop #fashionover40 #endlesssummer #comfortablefashion #styleover40 #ltkswim @shop.ltk #travelstyle

What’s your favorite way to travel? I think mine is train. I actually loved traveling by train while we were in Italy. I do wish I enjoyed flying more. I just get so much anxiety when we fly. Still totally worth it though! Have a great weekend! #travel #travelingwithkids #familytravel #funny #italytravel #amalficoast #cinqueterre #rome #traintravel #europetravel #europetravels #travelingwithkids #wasteoftime

I’ve decided that mentally I’m going to be here today.
Does anyone else feel like they just can’t get their shit together lately? Since we started school a few weeks ago, I feel like I’m always a few steps behind. It doesn’t help that we’ve already had a couple IEP meetings, and my daughter is currently home sick.
We are actually supposed to be leaving to go to Disney soon and I can’t even wrap my head around getting ready for that. Normally I always have my shit together for a Disney trip, but I can’t even get that together. Anyone else feeling like this and want to mentally join me here in Cinque Terre? There’s plenty of room on the step. 😂 #momlife #momlifebelike #cinqueterre #wishfulthinking #iepmom #italytravel #vernazza #StayingBlonde

I figured that I needed to post a good summer wrap up reel since today is the last “unofficial” day of summer. This summer is going to be hard to beat. Maybe I should already start planning for next summer! Happy Labor Day. #summertrip #summertravels #europesummer #europetravels #familytravels #familytravel #travelingwithkids #italytravel #paris #venice #rome #london #cinqueterre #amalficoast

Best day ever! If you’re ever on the Amalfi Coast, do yourself a favor and book a boat tour. It’s seriously the best way to visit the Almafi coast.

Today was a big travel day. We were on our way to the Amalfi Coast. Before getting to the small town of Praiano, we stopped in Pompeii to tour the sites. You can find our entire Italy itinerary, complete with links to our transportation and where we stayed in the link in my bio. #amalficoast #pompeii #travelstories #travelstory #praiano #positano #amalfi #familytravels #travelingwithkids #italytravel #europetravel #europesummer #italysummer #wanderlust

Another fantastic day in Rome. Although isn’t every day in Rome fantastic? I really liked having so many of our activities planned in advanced. It was nice never having to stand in any of the long lines. I have our whole Rome itinerary up on the blog now, complete with links to sites and activities.
