With all of the excitement welcoming the newest ship to the Disney Cruise Line fleet – the Disney Wish – now more than ever I am itching to sail away! I have been on 11 Disney Cruises over the years, our most recent being last October, and I hope to set sail on another really soon.

But until then, I figured I’d share some tips with you all for cruising on Disney Cruise Line. Enjoy!

What is a holiday without the perfect outfit? I’ve curated some fun Americana looks for her – perfect for Independence Day or summer in general. Additionally, I’ve found some fun home items for your 4th of July get together. Enjoy!

If you follow me on Instagram, you’ll know that a few weeks ago my husband and I took our first trip to Nantucket. For years we have been wanting to go and see what all the fuss is about! I am not going to lie, I really wasn’t that impressed and I’m not sure if we’ll ever go back. But nonetheless, I am glad we tried something new.

Perhaps the disappointment came from the fact that we were expecting something completely different; many people have compared it to Palm Beach when speaking to us, and the two aren’t very similar. However, I still wanted to write a post to share our trip and share some of our favorite parts, as well as answer some FAQs.

As May comes to a close, I wanted to bring up a topic close to my heart – mental health. May is actually mental health awareness month, which I believe is the perfect time to talk a bit about my story with you as well as share helpful resources that I hope can be useful to you all.

The more we talk about mental health, the more we can break the stigma. Because chances are, you or someone close to you has struggled with mental health at some point or another – whether it is a long term or temporary struggle, it is nothing to be ashamed of!

Next week we are heading to Nantucket! I am so excited, yet nervous. Grant and I have never been to New England together – and I haven’t been since I was a toddler. Needless to say, I am very excited to be going somewhere that feels new to the both of us.

I am sure like many of you, the first thing I think of when I book a trip is, “what am I going to wear?” Nantucket is definitely an interesting destination since it is a bit cooler (despite it being a post-Memorial Day trip), so I definitely had to take that into consideration. Additionally, we’re only there for 3 nights, therefore I am making it my goal to ONLY PACK A CARRY-ON! I know, very hard to believe for a gal like me – but I am up for the challenge. So take a look at these little mood boards I made to help me with my packing for next week.
