Miraval Resort & Spa, Part II

I participated in some activities (other than the spa) while at Miraval. We went hiking if you can believe that.  If you come to Miraval and you are not a local, you need to go hiking or do some of the other outdoor activities.  Matt has always wanted to go...

Loving Los Angeles, Part I

My husband and I love to get away at least every 3-4 months.  This month, we flew to Los Angeles and had a blast. Great eating and great times were nonstop during this trip.  I think it is always important to take time to spend with the ones...

Junior’s Cheesecake NYC

New York is known for its cheesecake, and at the forefront of the cheesecake craze is Junior's cheesecake. We took a 5-7 minute walk from our hotel to Junior's. We met Matt's cousin, her husband, and their daughters there for lunch. It's a great spot to eat before or...

Marina Village at Atlantis

The Henderson Beach Resort

This summer has been wonderful!  The kids had a blast, and I had a much needed break from the hustle and bustle life can bring. Summer was filled with great vacations, visiting family and friends, and just relaxing. One vacation was extra special to us, not just...

The Knickerbocker Hotel NYC

The first time I traveled to Manhattan, I stayed with a colleague from law school, so I didn't have to stay in a hotel. My oldest daughter has talked about Times Square before, so we decided to find somewhere close to Times Square, especially since we were going to...

Southern Pearl Oyster House

During my trip to my alma mater, Southern University, my friends from Huntsville, Alabama met my family at Southern Pearl Oyster House, a restaurant in Baton Rouge. I lived in Baton Rouge for 16 years, but this was a new restaurant that I had not visited. It was...
