Philly: Roots Picnic
I’m typing this sad and exhausted, but I wanted you guys to hear about my wonderful weekend before the details got blurry on me. At this point, many things are blurry…lol.

South Beach
Itinerary I’ve been to Miami several times, but this is my first time taking the kids. Therefore, I had to do a ton of research for kid friendly things to do. We went down for spring break.

Afro Nation Puerto Rico

What Happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas
Las Vegas When I was young, I assumed Vegas was only for old men who liked to gamble. Boy, was I wrong. So far, I’ve been twice and both times I had a blast. And I still haven’t done everything that I want to do yet. Flights aren’t crazy expensive, so I’ll be back. MyContinue reading “What Happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas”
Girl’s Trip: Destin, FL
When I initially decided to blog this trip, I was torn between focusing on the destination itself, or putting together a girl’s trip. So, I decided to do a little bit of both. Plus, my twitter fam did not help me specifically choose which one to focus on when I asked. Yes, I’m judging youContinue reading “Girl’s Trip: Destin, FL”
