When’s the last time you had a moms or girls nig When’s the last time you had a moms or girls night out? I had the best time hanging out with the neighborhood mamas over the weekend. It was just what we needed. Oh and make sure to scroll to see the evolution of a shark handoff πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

Ever heard of @saltwatercycle ? It’s one of those BYOB pedal bike things but in a boat in the water. My legs were barely long enough to pedal πŸ˜‚ Made me feel young again until I sat next to 20 something year olds and felt old again lol. Anyway… it was really fun and I’d definitely recommend it if you’re visiting or just want a fun night out. 

πŸ“Έ: by everyone on the boat probably…

It's been a while since I posted about a South Car It's been a while since I posted about a South Carolina State Park, so I'm going to do you a huge solid, and share all the things to do at Huntington Beach State Park πŸ˜‰ This is park 3 of 8 in my #scstateparks series. But first things first - have you been doing any fun outdoorsy stuff?

I have the link in my bio for the full post, but here are some snippets (scroll through to see Kelsey being her beautiful self and Carter in his sea life element). Here's what the park has to offer:

πŸ• Camping sites
πŸ› Playground
πŸ– Beach
🐊 Nature center
πŸ› Gift shop
🧺 Picnic shelter
πŸ₯Ύ Trails
🎣 Fishing
🚲 Biking
⭐️ and so much more

This is a great park to visit and spend as little or as much time as you want. It's also not too far from Myrtle Beach if you're headed that way.

Gotta risk it for the brisket. Are you a BBQ beef, Gotta risk it for the brisket. Are you a BBQ beef, chicken, or pork type of person? 

Grilling season is coming up, but that’s when we do most of our travel, so in honor of that, here are my top 3 BBQ spots from our travels. Let me know if there’s any we should try from your travels too. 

πŸ– @joeskc - Joe’s Kansas City BBQ is hands down my favorite! It’s at a green gas station in Kansas City, KS and the line is definitely worth it. We had a mix of things but the brisket was my fave and Kelsey loved the ribs so much she was dancing and didn’t even know it. 

πŸ– @blacksbbqaustin - We had our eyes set on another popular spot but didn’t want to wait. We stumbled upon Blacks BBQ and it was delicious. I had the brisket and my in laws had some massive ribs! We even got a tour of the smokers that burns wood 24/7. 

πŸ– @melvinsbbq - Melvin Bessinger’s BAR-B-Q is a staple in our household. We are known to pick up the Gift Cards from Costco, and the ribs with dry rub and yellow and red sauce on the side is our signature order. Check out their website for their daily specials. 

And there you have it. Now I’m hungry. K byeeeee! πŸ‘‹
