Want a SPECIAL wand at the ready for NEXT Halloween that can double as a 2024 Christmas gift + 2025 Halloween costume accessory for your child?

Here’s how:

🛍️Buy an INTERACTIVE wand on the official Universal website prior to Christmas to get it delivered to your house.

🎁Wrap the wand along with a card that says “you’re going to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter” and states the dates of a Universal Orlando or Universal Hollywood trip that you have on the books for 2025

🪄Use the wand on your trip to make magical things happen throughout the theme parks (that not just any wand can conjure up)

🎃Dig the wand back out of storage to complete a costume when Halloween rolls back around and your is asking to be Dumbledore or another magical being when they go to trick or treat

💥Bam! Just like that you got 2 holiday prep work projects started in one go!

•••

YOU:
🙋🏻‍♀️What website is the official website? How long do the wand batteries typically last? When can I go to Universal to avoid peak season crowds and save money?

ME:
👋I have all that information for you and more at my fingertips! All you need to do is send me an email to get your inexpensive trip planning process started!

Not all hotel stays with babies are created equal. Let me tell you why…

🙃Sometimes if you request a crib or pack and play you get a pack and play with a thin mattress that has seen better days and you question the cleanliness of…. (been there, done that).

🤩Other times, you come to your room to find a crib with a nice mattress and extra baby friendly amenities! This month I had a at the JW Marriott connected to Mall of America

Here’s how this hotel was perfect for me and my little one:

1️⃣ They accommodated my crib request by having a crib with a nice mattress, clean sheets, AND mini baby shampoo + body wash, a baby sized towel, and a little baby sized pillow in the room upon arrival (talk about going above and beyond)

2️⃣ The hotel had an elevator straight into the lobby from the parking ramp which allowed for easy access into the hotel with stroller and luggage in hand from where I self parked my car

3️⃣ The hotel had a restaurant on site with FABULOUS food. I highly reccomend the French Toast! It was so fancy and delicious.

4️⃣ The pool was a great size for my little one and I to enjoy

5️⃣ The hotel is directly connected to the Mall of America! We could explore, go to Toys R Us, Oh Baby, and more…then easily go back to the room when it was time for my little guy’s naptime

•••

Thanks JW Marriott for the wonderful stay and for going above and beyond to make my son’s first Marriott vacation a trip with ultimate ease. I am so glad we chose to stay with you and will be sure to highly reccomend this to other clients with young children.

I foresee this hotel selling better than others in the foreseeable future after Disney made it’s latest announcements about “lightning lane premier pass”…here’s why:

1️⃣ The higher pricetag guests will be paying to stay at an “eligible for premier pass purchase” resort will make some families consider earning points via a program like Marriott Bonvoy for their expensive stay as an important factor in their trip

2️⃣ Teachers, nurses, doctors, and paramedics can get exclusive career related discounts at this specific hotel ONLY

3️⃣ The hotel has many features that are especially appealing such as being within walking distance to EPCOT and Hollywood Studios

➕AND MORE

What reaort(s) am I talking about? The “swalphin” family/Swan, Dolphin, and Swan Reserve. 😌🐬

Why should you book your stay through me? 🤔

I offer assistance with linking your stay to your Disney account to maximize on perks (such as the ability to buy lightning lane premier pass) and more! 👍

Ready to navigate the new waters with lightning lane premier pass as a Disney vacation factor (which begins in late October) TOGETHER?

Here’s why you should consider adding Wilmington, NC to your travel wish list for summer of 2025…

1. Multiple movies have scenes that were shot there so you can see places from iconic movie scenes. One of these movies is Iron Man 3. 🎥

2. There are beautiful hotels right on the popular area beach (Wrightsville Beach)🏖️

3. The scuba diving is great once you get farther out to sea with a local dive boat (I have ones I can recommend to divers) 🤿

4. There is a garden filled with carnivorous plants that is unique and fun to visit 🌱

5. There is awesome food from a cute little smoothie and açaí bowl shop to great seafood restaurants 🍤

Top 3 reasons to plan your 25’ Presidents’ Day weekend trip this fall?

1️⃣ Maximize on savings at select continental US and International destinations with early booking discounts

2️⃣ Get a jump on booking the best vacation rental options before the ones in the locations closest to tourist attractions are picked over. Booking early is one of the top keys to having an enjoyable vacation rental experience. The good vacation homes go so much faster than the desirable hotels in various areas

3️⃣ Enjoy a longer period of time to spread out your vacation payments for trip bundles including airfare, lodging, and more. Many trips only require a small deposit (around the $200-$500 mark) and allow you to pay your final balance off by about 1 month before your trip. So, if you booked your trip for February by next weekend…you’d owe a few hundred dollars this month and then be able to slowly chip away more at the final balance in October, November, and December before your final payment deadline in January would roll around.

•••

I’m here to help you find the deals, make the payment plans (if needed), and gear up to go on your warm weather escape when the Minnesota winters get too cold to bear in February. ☺️

Just give me a ring when you’re ready to start the vacation planning fun! 🥹💭

This is the TOP place for wildlife lovers to visit! And it’s only appropriate that I highlight it on

So…here are 3 top things to know before you plan your trip to…THE GALAPAGOS ISLANDS 🏝️

🇪🇨They are a part of the country of Ecuador, so you will want to plan a day or two to experience Quito, Ecuador before you board your plane from Ecuador to the Galapagos Islands (there is no such thing as a “straight shot flight to Galapagos” from the US)

🐧You may be able to sight penguins there! YES. PENGUINS!! The penguins there are called Galapagos Penguins and they are the only penguins to live near the equator. So…if you’re NOT a cold weather person but you ARE a penguin person…the Galapagos is for YOU!

🛥️It’s best to take boat(s) with tour guides to explore different islands if possible. OR consider a staying on liveaboard or cruise to be able to visit multiple islands easily. Just be sure to inquire about the naturalists that will be available on board. These people can make or break your experience on this once in a lifetime trip opportunity. You want people who truly know what they are talking about. It is my hope that your guide will make your adventure both educational and fun.

Of course if seeing a particular animal, going on a trip that makes the most of your time and allows you to see more of the islands, and/or adventuring on excursions where education meets fun are any of the items on your wishlist…

That’s where I come in! 😉

I’m happy to help you plan your trip and I’m blessed to be able to say that so when I help you plan I am speaking from personal experiences. 🥹🐢

When you’re ready…I’m here to chat all about your Galápagos Islands dreams!

Just shoot me a text or give me a ring when you’re ready! ☺️
