What We’re Doing to Get Ready for Virtual Learning

Here we go again! Another semester of virtual learning. We’ve got this!

I’m hoping it will go much smoother this time since everyone has had more time to prepare. But I won’t lie – the schedule the school has proposed is very overwhelming! If I wasn’t worried about my children losing their spot at our charter school, I would probably just pull them and homeschool until they can go back. I feel like virtual learning is homeschooling without all the benefits of homeschooling (like controlling the content and schedule). But it’s fine. It’s all fine. We’re going to make it work!

Here’s a list of what we’re doing to get ready for virtual learning:

Perfect Getaway in North Georgia – Antlers Ridge Lodge

By on June 19, 2020

A few weekends ago we were invited to stay at the most beautiful rental home  – Antlers Ridge Lodge! It was so wonderful to get away for a little bit and relax. Antlers Ridge Lodge is full of everything we needed for a few days away – like two fully stocked coffee bars, tons of board games and puzzles, huge 4k smart TVs, and beds that felt like sleeping on clouds! It really is the perfect getaway in North Georgia!

And the views! Who wouldn’t want to enjoy their morning coffee and cinnamon rolls while looking at this gorgeous view?!

Beach Recap and Traveling During the Pandemic

By on May 20, 2020

We just got back from a much-needed escape to the beach!

We had such a great time soaking up the sun and making memories. I was anxious about traveling during the pandemic and prepared A LOT before we left to make sure we could minimize any exposure to germs. I thought I would share the steps I took and the different things I brought along and did to keep us safe. (Disclaimer – I’m not a doctor or a CDC scientist, and I don’t work for the WHO. I’m just a mom!)

We received complimentary accommodations in Myrtle Beach from Condo-World in exchange for an honest review. As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own! 

Where to Eat Play and Stay at Myrtle Beach

Last weekend we took a quick trip to Myrtle Beach. The weather in Atlanta was rainy and dreary, and I was so happy to be escaping to the sunny beach for a few days! We’ve never taken the kids to Myrtle Beach, so I had no idea where to begin to look for somewhere to stay. Luckily, Condo-World stepped in and helped us to find a great place!

Where to Stay:

Condo-World offers the area’s largest selection of oceanfront Myrtle Beach condo rentals. (Because I always say that if you’re going to the beach, you might as well stay ON the beach!) Condo-World has condos for all budgets and tastes and you can book online or over the phone with ease. (They also have vacation rentals in Gatlinburg, Panama City Beach, Destin, South Walton, Pigeon Forge, Orlando, and Hilton Head!) We stayed at the Bay View Resort, which was close to all of the local attractions and restaurants.

Bay View Resort has beautiful oceanfront suites and 1, 2, 3, and 4 bedroom condos. I mean – just look at this view!!! You can’t beat that!
