I don’t remember any Christmas present my grandparents ever gave me…

…but I remember them taking a trip with us to Walt Disney World in 1977…when park admission was a mere $14. 😳
- I remember riding Peter Pan and A Small World with them.
- I remember standing underneath Cinderella’s castle and twirling in circles while they laughed.
- I remember swimming in the old Howard Johnson swimming pool while they watched and encouraged us from the side.

I hope our grandchildren remember that one year they went to Florida with Grandpa and Gigi for Christmas.
- I hope they remember shivering in the Elf ice sculpture show and sliding on the ice slides until their fingers tingled.
- I hope they remember that we spent everyday in the water park and water slides and lazy river whether it was raining or sunny.
- I hope O and L remember giving surfing a try for the first time on the FlowRider surf simulator.
- I hope they remember the atrium light show every night that never got old or tiresome.
- I hope they remember throwing snowballs and going sledding indoors without having to wear coats, hats, gloves, and mittens.
- And I hope they remember the chaos that ended every night with the wrestling matches in the floor amongst cousins that devolved into tickling fests with someone inevitably getting thumped in the head or kicked in the stomach.

I hope they NEVER know I cried every night and every morning with tears of joy,…but I hope they feel all the love Grandpa and Gigi have for them.

Let’s do this again before you kids get any bigger.

XOXO,
Grandpa and Gigi

Resortwear dress from Tommy Bahama. I am barely 5’1 so it is a maxi dress on me but intended to be a midi dress on others. THIS DRESS IS HUSBAND APPROVED! 🤣 Vacation Dress / cruise dress / island dress / Florida / Mexico

#LTKTravel #LTKSeasonal #LTKOver40

🌴💕🥥 This swimmie was a Christmas Eve impulse buy. I’ve worn it to the resort pool two days…and receive at least three compliments a day both times I’ve worn it. In “girl math”, I would say that makes it worth the purchase price, right? 🤔💸➕

💕My heart is so full. 3/4 children, 4/6 grandkids, and 2/3 son-in-laws. We are almost all together. I stayed up almost three hours past my usual bedtime last night…I didn’t want to miss a minute of the grandsons wrestling each other in the floor. The end-of-the-day meltdowns. The Sea of Legos covering the coffee table. The after-dinner-ice-cream-sugar-rush. Our 10-month-old grandson showing interest in his 14-year-old uncle for the first time. I am totally exhausted but don’t want any of it to end. So many blessings.

XOXO,
Valarie

Chic and Sophisticated Outfit from my Resortwear Travel Capsule Wardrobe.

📲 Comment CHIC if you love this look.

😋 I wore this outfit within the resort yesterday and was stopped by so many people who told me how much they loved my outfit.

🌴💕🥥 This outfit proves my point that you can enjoy the tropics without wearing the tropics. Elegant, casual, and refined…not a print in sight.

👙It will be 10 degrees warmer today so it is a POOL day…and…the grandchildren arrived last night!!!!!

Christmas Eve airport outfit. BHM —> MCO 🎄❤️✈️

#LTKHoliday #LTKSeasonal #LTKTravel

Merry Christmas Eve. I tried to read books that broaden my horizon, teach me something new, or enlighten me to a viewpoint that might be different from my own. “Dear Denise: letters to the sister I never knew” by Lisa McNair is a collection of letters to Denise McNair, who was murdered in the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing in Birmingham Alabama. The letters were written by her sister who was born a year after her murder. My grandfather was in a nearby hospital in Birmingham at the time of the bombing and heard the explosion, so we have a family connection to the bombing. I am very thankful that I found this book in the airport and look forward to reading(and finishing) it today. #boktok
