If you think tequila is only for margaritas, this creamy cocktail will change your mind. It changed mine!

My Tequila Cream Cocktail is inspired by our trips to Tulum. Think of it as a White Russian Cocktail with an extra luxurious twist with tequila cream, aka a Mexican White Russian.

Once you try it, you might not go back to vodka. I know I’m not.

It’s smooth, rich, and just strong enough. The perfect drink to wind down the evening.

Whether you’re hosting friends or treating yourself, this Tequila Cream Cocktail (Mexican White Russian) is an ideal after-dinner drink you will keep coming back to.

I took my first-ever solo trip in March and couldn't have picked a better place than Greenville, South Carolina!

Before heading to the Southern Travelers Explore Conference in nearby Seneca County, I spent a few unforgettable days exploring this charming Southern city.

From wandering down picturesque Main Street to e-biking to Travelers Rest, visiting local museums, sipping wine in the countryside, enjoying Southern cuisine, and even chasing waterfalls. Greenville has the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation.

Whether you're planning a solo escape, a family getaway, or a girls' weekend, this city has something for everyone. So check out my new blog post, "How to Spend a Fun Weekend in Greenville", and book your trip to this South Carolina gem.

Are you looking for something comforting and hearty during these cold days? Check out my soup recipes, including my NEW Maldivian Fish Curry and Southwestern Corn Chowder.

My Southwestern Corn Chowder is inspired by our hiking trip in Sedona. After exploring some of Sedona's epic trails, it was the perfect soup to fill our appetite.

My Maldivian Fish Curry is inspired by our luxurious trip to Conrad Maldives Rangali Island. After a rainy day of swimming with manta rays, we went to the beach lounge and enjoyed this traditional Maldivian dish.

Sedona, you are beautiful!! We felt your energy and magic. What a perfect destination to celebrate 9 years

We hiked 30 miles, explored incredible caves, rock-scrambled to summits, enjoyed sunset vortexes, went on an off-roading jeep tour, ate delicious Southwest cuisine, and drank cold beer and fine wine.

Since we've been home, we have dealt with ongoing illnesses. That's the beauty of a household of five. Everything gradually hits one person at a time.😆So, I am a bit behind in publishing my blog posts, but the wait will be worth it! My Sedona itinerary is pretty extensive and has a wealth of information.

Until then, here are some highlights:

📸 1 - Sunrise hike to Cathedral Rock. An uphill hike to a vortex with sacred energy flowing through the natural atrium and stunning views.

📸 2 - Sunrise hike to Subway Cave. I will never forget that “wow” moment when we rock-scrambled our way up, turned around, and saw this amazing cave.

📸 3 - Rock scrambled our way up to the top of Bell Rock. I loved every hike in Sedona, but this one was my favorite. It’s another vortex site, and I think we really felt its energy. There is no “trail” on this hike. So, Adam and I worked together to find a path to get to the top. Parenting can challenge you (more than any hike), and this trail reminded us how great we are when we work together.

📸 4 - We went on a very rugged Jeep tour with Safari Jeep Tours. It was such a thrilling experience driving on the edge of a cliff. Then, we went on a short hike to Merry Go Around Rock for sweeping panoramic views of Sedona.

📸 5 - Sunset vortex at Airport Mesa. We enjoyed a short hike to the summit, where we felt the positive effects of the phenomenon as the sun went down, casting a warm golden-hour glow on Bell Rock and Cathedral Rock.

📸 6 - Dancing in the Tlaquepaque Arts & Shopping Village. It is an acclaimed arts, culture, and shopping district inspired by Guadalajara. I loved browsing the art galleries.

📸 7 - Cold beer Sedona Beer Company after three hikes. They also serve delicious food. It was one of the best lunches we had in Sedona.

📸 8-9 - Wine hopping on the Verde Valley Wine Trail. Page Springs Cellars is a picture-perfect winery on the banks of Oak Creek. We also enjoyed sweet wine tasting at Oak Creek Vineyards and Winery. Every wine I had was so good that I took a bottle home!

Beat the Texas heat and enjoy a family summer getaway in New Braunfels! This Texas Hill Country destination is one of the best family getaways thanks to its many kid activities.

You can have a blast at one of the world's best waterparks, relax on a river float, get up close with animals on an African safari, experience the thrill of an alpine coaster and a miniature train, marvel at the largest cavern in the state, and so much more.

For a stress-free family weekend, our top pick is The Resort at Schlitterbahn New Braunfels. Yes, it's not just a waterpark, it's a resort too! We love staying here because it's within walking distance of the waterpark, and guests enjoy the perk of one-hour early entry!

Check out my new post to find the best things to do in New Braunfels with kids, more information about The Resort at Schlitterbahn, and the best places to eat with kids.

Looking for a fun, family-friendly beach destination in Texas?!? Check out South Padre Island! Home to the best beach in Texas and known as the "Sandcastle Capital of the World."

You can quickly fill an entire weekend at South Padre with fun family activities and only scratch the surface of all the island offers. Check out my new blog post for more details, but here are a few things you cannot miss!

- Spend the day at Beach Waterpark. A trip to SPI, especially in the summer, is only complete with a visit to this epic waterpark. It has an iconic sandcastle aquatic playground with several slides for young kids, and a 1,400-gallon water tipping bucket!

- Learn how to build a sandcastle with sandyfeet sandcastle services. The Sandy Feet team teach you how to make epic sandcastles using everyday items like plastic silverware. Plus you get to spend time at the beach!

- Go on an eco-friendly dolphin watch with The Original Dolphin Watch. South Padre Island is home to several year-round pods. After watching dolphins swim in the channel, you can see marine life up close before they release them back into the water. We saw about five different dolphins, including a mommy with her baby.

- Enjoy family-friendly activities at Gravity Park South Padre Island. Drive go-karts, ride the Ferris Wheel, play a round of mini golf, and the two most thrilling adventures—ride a giant swing and the world’s tallest reverse bungee!
