Hey there! I’m Whitney, a busy stay-at-home mom to five awesome humans, ages 6 to 16, and happily married to my husband, Mike. With my kids' packed schedules of extracurriculars, life is full, but I always make time for the things I love—reading, creating digital designs, and planning upcoming family adventures. Between family activities and personal passions, I’m all about balancing the chaos while still carving out those important moments for myself.

Travel Enthusiast

I have always had a deep love for travel and exploring new places. There is nothing quite like the thrill of discovering a new city, meeting different people, and immersing yourself in new cultures. Whether in Florida, within the US, or out of the country, I truly love to experience something out of my norm, make unforgettable memories, and take a much-needed break from my daily, chaotic life.

I don’t get to travel as often as I would like, but I am constantly adding places to my bucket list, researching, saving, and planning for my next adventure.

And if you didn’t already know this about me, I am all about the points and miles game when it comes to saving money on travel. With a family of 7 its become a necessity if we want to travel anywhere. Last year I went to Ireland for 8 days with my husband, our entire trip was only $2600, all expenses paid.

Book Lover

I am an avid reader. I love to get lost in a good book. Reading is my escape from daily life and everything that overwhelms it. As someone who suffers from ADHD, reading has been a great outlet. It allows me to set my focus on the storyline and immerse myself in the book while putting all the other chatter in my head to rest. It gives me a little time to breathe and decompress before returning to the daily grind.

I started my reading journey a few years back and immediately became addicted. If you’re on Bookstagram or BookTok, you know what I am talking about. Social media is where I met my demise… Let’s just say I now have more books on my TBR list than I will probably ever have time to finish in my lifetime. — I am into fictional romance, romantic comedy, fantasy, and supernatural books. If it adds the spice factor and is labeled as SMUT, I’ve probably already read it, or it's on my neverending list.

I hope that by reading my blog, you will find a few good ones to add to your own TBR. If you find one that you love or hate, shoot me a message - I would love to hear your thoughts. ♡ Also, feel free to add me on GoodReads, link is on the “books” tab.

Everything Else

As a wife and mom of five incredible humans, my life is anything but calm and quiet. In marriage, parenting, school, sports, work, finances, etc., I struggle like everyone else and wonder if I am doing this whole “life” thing right. Over the years, I’ve lost my sense of self, and I am currently healing and learning to love myself again.

So, this section of my blog will be a mismatched collection of my life. It will include what I am doing, what I am struggling with, what I have overcome, my favorite things, my hobbies, and my favorite recipes. You name it, and it’ll probably be there!
