What do you think I should cut out? My bag is seeming way too heavy! Is there anything I’m missing?

This is a delicious and easy recipe to make whenever you have fresh fruits or berries. It even tastes great with frozen fruit as well. I have the full recipe on Staying Blonde linked in my bio. #easybaking #easyrecipes #summerbaking #cherrycobbler #cobbler #easycobbler #cherries🍒 #cherries #cherryrecipes #stayingblonde

We picked nearly 10 pounds of cherries! What should I make first? @upickcherries opening day was yesterday and they’re open all weekend. I am so excited that cherry season is finally here. If you are looking to pick cherries, this orchard is located on Morgan Hill, Ca. You can find all the info at www.upickorchards.com.

It’s funny that it’s always my own stuff that I forget to pack. At least I do remember to pack everything for the kids! What’s the most annoying thing you ever forgot to pack?

You can’t go wrong with any of these hotels. We end up staying at one of these three when ever we visit Disneyland. They are all close to the parks, offer comfortable, spacious rooms, and all have fantastic pool areas.

How different is “vacation” you vs “everyday” you? I’ve come to the realization that “vacation” me is a lot more fun! When I’m traveling, I wake up early, have endless energy, am much more laid back, and I’m much more adventurous.
I wish that some of “vacation” me would rub off on “everyday” me. I could use some of that endless energy, and the ability to wake up early right about now. I don’t know, I guess waking up and getting the kids ready for school just isn’t as exciting as traveling. 😂 #momlifebelike #momlife #vacationmode #momtruths #xenses

Do you have a favorite hotel that you find yourself visiting over and over? What brings you back to that hotel? I`ve been thinking about this as I`m looking into a Disney trip for the fall, and I`ve realized that we stay at one of the same three hotels every time we visit the parks. I guess we are just creatures of habit.
A few things we look for in our Disney hotels are: close proximity to the parks, comfortable spacious rooms, and a fantastic pool area. Each of our favorite hotels have all three of these. These hotels also have something about them that seems to make our visits feel more like a vacation than just a trip.
I just shared a new blog post over on SB talking about our three go-to hotels when ever we visit the parks. If you`re wondering about this first photo, it`s from the Grand Californian. I had to take a pic and mention their robes! They are seriously the comfiest robes EVER. So much so, I bought one in their gift shop that I still wear daily. Have you tried their robes?

My beautiful Grandma Betty left us for heaven yesterday. My heart is heavy, but I take solace in the thought she is finally reunited with my grandpa — the great love of her life.
I am already missing her and the stories she would weave. She was a divine story teller with the natural gift of gab. I will never forget her laugh. When she laughed the whole room laughed with her. She was a master gardener with the greenest thumb I’ve seen. Growing tomatoes was her specialty and my mouth waters just thinking about their goodness. She was an amazing cook, and would whip up some of the best southern recipes you’d ever eat. I will miss you, Grandma, but you will live in my happy memories until we meet again. In the meantime, give Grandpa a hug for me! ❤️

Have you been craving anything in particular lately? I don’t know if it’s the warmer weather or what, but I have been craving Dole Whip! I’ve heard that they’re supposed to be selling it at a grocery stores soon, but I haven’t seen it in any of mine yet. I guess I will just have book a trip down to Disneyland and grab some in person. What do you think?
On another Disney note, did you see that they are discontinuing park reservations at Walt Disney World starting next January? I am really hoping they do this for Disneyland as well. I’ve actually been holding off buying season passes until they do. What do you think? Would you like to see the reservation system go away? #dolewhip #disneyparks #tikiroom #enchantedtikiroom

Has mom guilt ever kept you from taking time for yourself? This year it almost kept me from going on my annual girl’s trip. I am glad I ended up pushing that guilt aside and went anyway. Sometimes you don’t realize how badly you need a break until you take a break. You can read more about how important it is to do this every so often in the link in my bio. #momguilt #momsweekend #girlsweekend #mombreak #momoftwokids #momofboth #momlifebelike #playadelcarmen #mexicotrip #visitmexico #allinclusiveresort #momlife❤️ #stayingblonde #royalhideawayplayacar

I thought about this as I listened to my kids fight on the way to school this morning. Out of all the things they had to inherit from me, they had to inherit my short fuse. 😝
Do your kids fight constantly? I am really hoping this is just a phase. #momlife #momlifebelike #momoftwokids #momofboth #momofteensandtweens #momofteenagers #momoftweens #tempertantrum #realmomlife #momlifeunfiltered #momlifeunplugged #motherhoodunplugged
