The Heineken Experience in Amsterdam is a must see while visiting The Netherlands!
I had a blast!
(And got a little buzzed in the process.)

Expediaâs 2025 Island Hot List has my wanderlust in overdrive! đ´âď¸
â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘
Theyâve rounded up the top 10 islands to visit around the worldâplus when to go and where to stay.
One of my favorites on the list? Sardinia, Italy! With its turquoise waters, incredible food scene, and laid-back Mediterranean vibe, itâs no surprise it made the list. (Fun fact: itâs also one of the worldâs Blue Zones, where people live longer, healthier lives!)
What I love about using Expedia is how easy it makes planning your entire trip. Flights, stays, car rentals, and activitiesâitâs all in one spot, which means less time juggling tabs and more time daydreaming about your next island escape.
Did your favorite island make the list?

Three years of Oliver đ
â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘
This past year brought more than its fair share of heartbreak. Shortly after turning two, Oliver was diagnosed with a brain tumor.
We were faced with an impossible decision: 15 months of chemotherapy, or a craniotomy that would leave him blind in his right eye.
Just 11 weeks after his diagnosis, we flew to Boston, where he underwent a 12-hour craniotomy at Boston Childrenâs Hospital.
He didnât deserve any of itâcountless hospital visits, six-hour infusions, a life-altering surgery, and so many unknowns.
And still, we lived. We chased joy. A dream trip to Maui, a road trip through New England in the fall, two escapes to Mexico, and even sailing through the BVIs.
Last week, we received the greatest birthday gift we could have hoped for: six months post-op, no evidence of recurrent or metastatic disease.
Heâs the luckiest of the unlucky. Brave beyond belief. Overflowing with love. Pure sunshine.
Happy birthday to my sweet, resilient boy. Youâve already taught me more than I could ever teach you. đđ
(Carousel compilation going back in time to his birthday last year. From baby to big boy!)

Unforgettable memories from the ultimate girlsâ weekend getawayâwith 18 kids, sunshine, and pure luxury at @lascasitaspm đ´â¨
Las Casitas is managed by @vehm.mx, the premier property management company in Punta Mita. They oversee the most exclusive villas in the area, and every one of their properties is fully staffed and loaded with luxury amenities.
This gorgeous beachfront estate in the exclusive Kupuri community features three private casitas, 12 bedrooms, 13.5 bathrooms, a stunning infinity pool, hot tub, gym, and beach access. Itâs designed for big groups, but feels intimate, relaxed, and totally elevated.
The real MVPs? The incredible full-time staff. We had a chef, sous chef, pastry chef, butler, concierge, and housekeepingâliterally someone looking after our every need. Every meal was a gourmet experience, and every moment was effortless (which, with 18 kids, is saying a lot).
@vehm.mx helped us coordinate in-house massages for the mamas, and organized a piĂąata for the kids and a mariachi band to celebrate Oliverâs birthday THREE-esta!
Perfect for a 40th birthday, girlfriend getaway, or large family tripâweâre already planning our return. I canât recommend it enough (or stop talking about it)!â¨â¨Drop âVACAYâ below for an exclusive 10% discount on any @vehm.mx villa booking! đ˛đ˝
