Not travel related. Just wanted to show off my beautiful flower girls. Brianna slept through the ceremony lol. Né Lani did awesome!
Day trip to Sesame Place. The girls are having a blast! Well Bri tapped out on us lol
Heeeeeeeeey y'all heeeeeeeey!!!!! It's been a long time I know. Well we finally ventured out in the world. Brianna is a little behind on passport stamps due to Covid-19.
We had a late birthday celebration in beautiful Turks and Caicos Islands staying at Beaches Turks & Caicos. This was my fourth visit. I can say Turks is my happy place. The water is GORGEOUS! The people are soooo nice and food (you know I'm a foodie) is always on point.
Beaches Turks & Caicos did a phenomenal job with their health procedures. You must have a negative PCR test and submit an application within 5 days of travel via their website, you can find the info via their tourist site, Turks & Caicos. Once on arrival and for any restaurant/building you enter, someone is there to sanitize your hands. They also provide on-site complimentary rapid test in which they schedule for you three days prior to departure.
Now that we got the healthy stuff out if the way on to the fun. Considering this was about Brianna's rescheduled birthday celebration and her LOVE for Elmo and the gang, the trip was centered around her itinerary.
Every night at 6:30 they have a stage show with the characters. I had to restrain Bri every night from running on stage lol.
Sunday morning we went to the character breakfast. The resort is all inclusive. However, the character breakfast does have a fee. The breakfast lasts about an hour. All the characters come out one by one dancing and visiting each table for photo ops. At the end we all joined in for a fun congo line dance.
Sesame Camp is incredible. The are open 8-5 then 6-10 9pm on Sundays. The kids (1-5) have their own itinerary of activities. These activities include things like letter of the day with Grover, tea time with Elmo & Abby and baking cookies with Cookie Monster. A daily schedule is left in your room to keep you informed of the acti its schedule of the day. Word of advise BE ON TIME for any show or activity.
I purchased a group photo op with the characters. To have them all in one spot was heaven for Bri lol.
On our last night I also purchased an activity called Talking. You choose your child's favorite character, Elmo of course for Bri and they come to your room. They read a bedtime story, takes photos and a stuffed character gift. When I tell you Brianna was EXCITED! It was the perfect way to end the trip.
Outside of Brianna's adventures, we went parasailing, slept on hammocks ate really good and enjoyed the Waterpark and beach. For those traveling with older kids, they ha e separate activities for them. For teens they even have a night club, which turns into a club for adults from 11-2. Parents they have things for you. Adult only bars and whirlpool bath in addition to activities. If you are traveling with small ones they do offer nanny services.
Beaches Turks & Caicos Resort Villages & Spa is DEFINITELY a must!
Covid 19 has definitely impacted our 2020 travel plans but we have adjusted. The girls and I celebrated Brianna's first birthday at the spectacular
We were totally blown away by the accommodations, the great staff, water park and especially the covid 19 precautions.
We stayed in the three bedroom two bath suite that came equipped with a full kitchen, washer and dryer, garden tub, stand up shower and patio/balcony. There's a pull out sofa bed in the living room so you can sleep 8 people.
For bri celebration we rented a cabana. They let our special visitor, Elmo join the party.
There are additional pools outside of the Waterpark and an arcade room. The arcade room is set up to play games and win tickets to redeem for prizes.
We had such a great time and will definitely come back for an extended stay.
I heard it’s National Breastfeeding week and month. Brianna having a quick snack while swimming in Aruba back in February.

All the thanks, love and appreciation to and for your safe and fun hospitality. Né Lani celebrated the big Five between and . She had blast.
has an outdoor and indoor pool (which worked out for the 30 minutes of rain we got) and a kiddie area. And parents, the complimentary happy hour (5-7) is the perfect "adult medicine". 🤣 The suites are spacious and efficient. Due to Covid the breakfast buffet is currently being served. We have stayed here a few times and never disappointed.
is a beautiful property. We spent all of our time at the pool of course. They have a zero entry section for Brianna, a lazy river, small baby pool and waterslide. The food and pool servers were great. Normally you can see the Disney fireworks from select rooms. They also provide transportation to and from the theme parks. I was able to sneak past the game room lol. It looks fun. Oh you HAVE to try the tiramisu from La Luce 😍. This is the perfect place for that mixture of family fun and relaxation. @ Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek
Absolutely love In these current times they have completely stepped up. Hilton has always taken cleanliness and guest satisfaction as a main priority. They have adapted to the current pandemic and excelled with flying stars. I love the social distance procedures, mask requirements, sanitizer units throughout the property and the door seal stickers to let you know noone else has entered your room from its last cleaning. My favorite keepsake is the door openers. It fits on your keyring. I got this from a previous stay and let me tell you, I USE IT EVERYWHERE!
Someone's turning FIVE this week!
Flower girl moves with her bestie. Né Lani and Audrey did such a great job! Congratulations to the Bryans. The reception was at . Very nice restaurant right across from . Staff was very accommodating and safe. Oh and can’t forget how goooood the food was. If you’re ever in check them out.
Pool vibes. How cute does Brianna look in her sunglasses lounging pool side at Tuscany Village?
Spending Fathers Day weekend at the beautiful Tuscany Village Resort. The check in was great. The staff allows one person from the party to check in with a face mask and they sanitize the counter and payment screen in between each interaction. On property they are practicing social distancing. No restaurants open just yet but plenty of door dash options nearby.
