Let’s be real—being a parent is amazing… but also a lot.

Between soccer practices, school projects, and snack emergencies, it’s easy to lose sight of the people you were before you became “Mom” and “Dad.” That’s why I’m a firm believer in the power of parent-only getaways. You deserve time to recharge, reconnect, and be reminded of the joy that comes with just being together.


And no, you don’t have to feel guilty about it. In fact, your whole family benefits when you return refreshed and re-energized.


👩‍❤️‍👨 My Upcoming Escape: Cruising into Quality Time

This summer, my husband and I are celebrating 13 years of marriage the best way I know how—onboard Royal Caribbean’s Harmony of the Seas out of Galveston, Texas! It’s one of our favorite ways to travel together. We’ll be revisiting a destination we adore and exploring some exciting new ones as well.

Large cruise ship with balconies and purple water slides. Sign reads "Harmony of the Seas." People below, marina in the background.

One suitcase. Multiple ports. Endless memories. 😍Whether we’re ziplining across the ship, watching a Broadway-style show, or sipping cocktails under the stars, cruising gives us a perfect mix of adventure and relaxation—and we never have to think about what's for dinner!


💡 Thinking About a Mom & Dad Getaway? Here Are My Top Picks:

🛳 Cruises for Two

Wake up in a new place every day without ever repacking. Whether you're sailing through the Caribbean, the Greek Isles, or Alaska's wild beauty, cruises offer built-in fun, romantic experiences, and plenty of opportunity to unwind—together.


🌴 Adults-Only All-Inclusive Resorts

No kids. No cooking. No responsibilities. These peaceful oases are designed specifically for adults who want pampering, privacy, and maybe a few piña coladas by the pool. Perfect for couples looking to reconnect.


🎢 Thrill-Seekers, Meet Universal Orlando

Love a good rush? Ditch the diaper bags and hit the high-speed thrills of Universal Orlando. Stay on-site for early park entry, stroll through CityWalk for amazing eats and nightlife, and prove once and for all who’s braver on The Incredible Hulk Coaster.

Red steam engine "Hogwarts Express" 5972 at a station with arched brick walls and a skylight roof, emitting steam.

🏰 Disneyland for Grown-Ups

Yes, Disneyland! California’s original magic kingdom blends nostalgia with luxury—sip wine in California Adventure, dine at award-winning restaurants, and enjoy the rides at your pace. No meltdowns. No stroller parking. Just magic, grown-up style.
