Now that 2 of my 4 are in school, I look forward to the summer so we can travel more as a family and spend… Read More
My kids love aquariums. No matter where we go, their first question is always “is there an aquarium?”. We were trying to make some Spring Break plans and the girls said “can we go back to the aquarium in Baltimore?”. While we love Baltimore, we were there this year and I wanted to go somewhere new. I had heard great… Read More
We’ve vacationed at Four Seasons Orlando twice now. Both trips were wonderful and I would highly recommend the resort for families with children of all ages (our kids are 7, 5, 2 & 1). Even our youngest, Miles, who was only 9 months when we visited a few months ago, had an absolute blast splashing in the pools. If you’re… Read More

We wanted to share details about more of the incredible castles that HomeAway has available in their 2017 Castle Collection. This collection is HomeAway’s list of the Top 20 Castles, all available to rent for a fairy tale-like vacation. Sounds like… Read More
Tom and I have been saying since Maggie was born: “I can’t wait to take a family ski trip”. We’ve been lucky enough to go to Vermont with family a few times, but the kids were too small to ski. This year we were ready to have Maggie and Alex try ski school and let Tommy try a run or… Read More

We both decided that having them learn from lessons or a ski school was also very important. We wanted someone to teach them the right way and… Read More
A few months ago we visited the National Aquarium for the 2nd time. We first visited a few years ago when Maggie and Alex were 4 and 2. They absolutely loved it. Maggie has been asking to go back ever since. Baltimore is the perfect distance for a weekend getaway for us, so a few months ago we traveled back… Read More
We took 4 kids ages 6 and under to Disney World and lived to tell about it. Not only did we survive, we had a really great trip. In addition to having a great trip, we even found time to relax. Having a fun, relaxing and memorable trip to Disney World with an infant, toddler and two children was truly thanks to… Read More
This holiday season I wanted to take Maggie and Alex into New York City for tea. I looked around and discovered there is a Madeline Tea at the Carlyle Hotel this time of year. The girls love the Madeline books and it’s one of my all time favorite books series too. When I booked the tea, I had no idea the… Read More
Earlier this month, our family visited the Four Seasons Resort in Orlando. It was an amazing trip from the minute we checked in. My husband and I couldn’t believe just how accommodating the resort was to our family. My parents came along to help us and even though they were on a trip to Disney World with 4 grandkids, they… Read More
