I haven’t posted any blogs lately because I’ve been on vacation for the last 12 days in The Outer Banks (OBX), North Carolina with Jason and the rest of my family. None of us had ever visited OBX before this trip so we were all super excited. This West Coast girl was ready to experience the East Coast for a change. 
The weather was beautiful the entire week! We even experienced a thunderstorm one of the days and I loved it. We don’t get much rain, let alone thunderstorms in Southern California so it was a nice change of pace.
We did all of the touristy stuff you would expect - toured Duck, Kitty Hawk, The Wright Brothers Museum, Roanoke Island, the light houses, etc. I’m actually surprised at how much there IS to actually do out there. It’s definitely worth a trip if you haven’t been - I would suggest staying in Duck. We stayed in Nags Head, which is nice and we had a beach house right on the water, but there isn’t much to walk to (well there was that conveniently located liquor store). Duck has a small downtown where there are shops, ice cream parlors, restaurants, and water sports all in a centralized location, which is really nice.
I have most of the pics up on my Facebook but here are a few! Enjoy!! XOXO
(Yes, I did eat that Snow Crab - and it was gooooood!)

Hey all. I’m just hanging out tonight - me, my dog and my computer. I was just goofing around with my digital camera and brought me back to my MySpace days of dramatic default pictures. Nothing too exciting but I grabbed Malibu and we took a few pics together - yes we ARE vane!
p.s. The eye shimmer I’m wearing is called Julie Hewett in Goldie, in case you gals (and perhaps guys) out there wanna know!

The family trip this year fell nothing short of my expectations - warm weather & water, sunshine, explorations and booze! As my Mom kept saying (who loves wine): “No more cerveza! Where can I get a good bottle of wine around here?” Playa del Carmen, Mexico is a beautiful little tourist town about 40 miles south of Cancun and just a 20 minute ferry ride away from Cozumel. Even though it was more expensive then the Mexico towns I am used to, it was a clean and beautiful paradise anyone or family can enjoy.
Some great things we did while visiting included snorkeling in Cozumel, visiting the Mayan Ruins in Chichen Itza, day tripping to Cancun (Mexico public transportation FTW!), and laying at the beach drinking mojitos (pretty sure that ice was never filtered water - eek) and chomping down on endless pico de gallo. So is that why I got sick on this trip?!
Enjoy the pics and be jealous of the tan.
