Is Legoland, Florida Worth the Trip?

After Hurricane Dorian derailed our Kennedy Space Center plans, we found some open days in south Florida. As I scrolled through my Instagram feed I saw several posts about a Hurricane Relief Day at Legoland. It was a chance to visit Legoland at a discounted rate that would benefit Hurricane Relief efforts. Seemed like a […]

Typhoon Lagoon in January

Completely unplanned, we found ourselves at a Disney water park in January and it was amazing! What the park lacked in warmth it made up for in zero wait for every ride at the park. I actually may never go to a water park in the summer again…ok that is not true, but the off-season […]

Peppa Pig World // Southampton, UK

Peppa Pig World is part of Paultons Park which is located just outside of Southampton in the U.K. We had passed it up when we arrived in Europe on the Queen Mary 2. We didn’t want to miss it again, three years later, when we left Europe, by boat once again. We scheduled a few […]

One Day Visit to Universal Studios & Islands of Adventure with Kids

We spent one day at Universal Studios & Islands of Adventure in Orlando with the sole intent of doing The Wizarding World of Harry Potter.

An Overnight at the Great Wolf Lodge in LaGrange, GA

One night at the Great Wolf Lodge in LaGrange, GA was plenty for water park fun. We came prepared to be up-sold on experiences and instead devoted ourselves to the water park until we couldn’t swim any more. The kids were none the wiser and can’t wait for another water park overnight! The Great Wolf […]

Dollywood with Little Kids

Everything you need to know for a day (or two) at this world class amusement park nestled in the Smoky Mountains. No visit to the Great Smoky Mountains would be complete without a visit to Dollywood.

Just the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios, Florida

The entire focus of our visit to Orlando, Florida was to take our Big Little on a birthday trip to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. He is wrapped into the book world of Harry Potter and was singularly focused on getting a chance to visit just the Harry Potter stuff. I honestly had no […]

Cabana Bay Beach Resort at Universal Studios, Orlando Florida

In order to fit Universal’s Wizarding World of Harry Potter in to a one-day trip I needed to take advantage of the perks offered by staying on property at Universal Studios. Cabana Bay Beach Resort is the lowest priced ‘on property’ hotel that still allows you early admission into Universal theme parks – exactly what […]

Busch Gardens Tampa with Kids

Lessons learned from visiting Busch Gardens Tampa with kids over Spring Break. The single biggest question we’ve been asked since coming back from spring break in Tampa is if visiting Busch Gardens Tampa Bay with kids was worth it. It completely depends. As a military family our tickets to Busch Gardens were free. (You get […]
