The Best Myrtle Beach Attraction for Families – The Pirates Voyage Dinner Show

By sunshineandholly on March 3, 2020

We received complimentary tickets to the Pirates Voyage Dinner Show and accommodations in Myrtle Beach in exchange for an honest review. As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own!

The Best Myrtle Beach Attraction for Families – The Pirates Voyage Dinner Show

We just got back from a super fun weekend in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Josh and I had both been to Myrtle years ago, but this was our first time taking the kids. I did a lot of Pinterest research before we left to see what family-friendly attractions were offered near our condo, and the Pirates Voyage Dinner Show kept popping up over and over. The reviews made it seem like a blast and we were so excited to check it out!

(The show is also a Dolly Parton Production, so I knew it would be excellent!)

Here’s everything you need to know for your trip to the Pirates Voyage Dinner Show:

The Ultimate List of How to Stay Healthy Before (And During) a Vacation

How to Stay Healthy Before (And During) a Vacation

There’s a really funny meme that’s circulating lately that goes:

Before I had kids, I thought I had a great immune system. Turns out I was just really good at staying away from the type of people who sneeze directly into your eyeballs while telling a story.

Kids are so gross! I’ve never had the best immune system, but since becoming a mom it seems like I’m always sick between the months of September and May. It’s not fun. I also always seem to get sick when we travel. And we travel a lot! Before our big cruise in January, I made a long list of things to do to (try) and keep my family healthy before we set sail. And guess what – it worked! We actually stayed well during the entire trip! But I DID get sick the day after we got home. (Ridiculous, right?) I’ll share my list below, but please remember – I’m not a doctor and you should consult with your primary care doctor before taking any medicine or supplements.

Disney Cruise Day 2 at Castaway Cay

Disney Cruise Day 2 at Castaway Cay

We woke up to a gorgeous view out of our verandah on the second day of our cruise. Disney Cruiseline has its own private island called Castaway Cay – it’s one of my favorite parts of the Bahamas cruise itinerary! I was so pumped about spending the day at the beach that I actually woke up before everyone else. So I decided to go up to deck 11 to grab some coffee and take some pictures of the ship while it was still quiet and calm.

That view!

Do you see Donald?

Disney Cruise Day 1 Recap and Video

By sunshineandholly on January 20, 2020

I’ve been dying to take another Disney Cruise since we got home from our first one last April. My dad joined us this time and we were all SO ready to make some wonderful memories on the Disney Dream. We got to the port super early and scored boarding group 2. That meant that we were some of the first people on the ship! It was a really great first day, despite the kids being a little grumpy. I think they were probably just a little overwhelmed.

Anniversary Trip to Disney World

By sunshineandholly on January 13, 2020

What better way to celebrate our 12th anniversary than with a trip to the same place we honeymooned back in 2007! You guys know we’re huge Disney nerds and we love celebrating special events at the happiest place on Earth!

We decided to drive down to Orlando – mostly so that I wouldn’t catch any germs from the flight. And believe it or not – I managed to stay well during the entire trip. We left as soon as we dropped the kids off at school that morning and made the 7-hour drive down. It was a breeze without kids!

Road trip!

Anniversary Trip to Disney World

We checked in at the hotel and then headed straight over to Epcot to enjoy the Food and Wine Festival. It was our first time at this festival and we managed to eat and drink our way around half of World Showcase before we got too full.
