Fun day at Rebounderz of Jacksonville

    Rebounderz Fun Hey Friends,I hope this finds you getting ready to kick off a fantastic weekend full of fun for you and the fam!

Jacksonville is just over the Florida line and only takes around an hour from our house in Brunswick, Georgia! Jacksonville has soooo many great ... [Read More]

The Ultimate Mom’s Guide to Destin Restaurants

Destin Restaurants I love Destin and the Destin area so much that it is maybe a bit ridiculous. We just got back this last week from Navarre, FL which is very, very close to Destin and less than a 25 minute drive. Destin has SO many fantastic places to eat, shop, and explore. There are outlets and a bunch of other cool places to shop. There is a lot of activities for kids in the area, including the Gulfarium down the road in Fort Walton, and even more things for adults to do. There is basically something for everyone no matter what your family enjoys and that is what I love the most about this area. You will not be bored on your vacation at all. We have been to this area three different weeks in the last year and have gotten to try SO many restaurants here. You will not find all of the ... [Read More]

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2018 Round Up

 Welcome to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2018  Hey Friends,I have been excited ALL week about the Nordstrom sale starting this last Thursday for Nordstrom card members. This sale was extra special and exciting for me because it was the 2nd Nordstrom Sale I have experienced since I started this blog but it was the first I have actually shopped in the store. In fact it was my first time shopping in the physical store period. I have always shopped online at nordstrom.com exclusively as opposed to drive to Jacksonville. With a 5 year old online is just easier- you moms understand. Anyways, this sale was an extra special treat for me because in addition to the first in store experience, I also was lucky enough to have my little sister LK join me for the sale. She is ...

Fort Walton Gulfarium

                   Hey Ya'll, It is another gorgeous, albeit scorching, day in South Georgia. There is not a singular breeze within a hundred mile radius right now I swear. All I can do is wish I was on the beach near the gulf soaking up all of that sweet ocean breeze. But I will have to hold that thought for about a month until I am back there again. In the meantime I am loving reminiscing over our trip the Destin a few months ago. There is just so much to recap about that trip but I am getting there slowly. There are so many great things about Destin and one of the ... [Read More]

As you may know by now if you have followed me for awhile, we live in the Golden Isles which is an area off the coast of Georgia that is comprised of several small barrier islands a few of ...

We have been celebrating lately here at the MT household because I found out Monday that I officially passed the NCLEX and I am now a registered nurse!!! Yay! We are in shock/celebration mode around here. But after close to three years total I am happy to have my life back.
