Travel Tuesday: Sugar’s Inn Galveston

Image
It’s a special edition of Travel Tuesday on a Thursday!   Ya’ll  need to get on board with going to Galveston! If you’re in the DFW area and you want to get to the beach, you can head south a few hours and get to Galveston easily! This was my second time visiting but I have a feeling I’ll be going back a little more often! I don’t have a ton of recommendations for you yet based on one weekend but the more I go, the more I’ll have!  First things first, where to stay?! There’s a new cute little boutique hotel in town named  Sugar‘s Inn  and I’m obsessed with the cuteness! It’s upstairs of one of Galveston’s finest restaurants  Sugar and Rye . Spoiler alert: I’ll be doing a giveaway with them over on Instagram too! Nothing better than a couple of nights away! My son and I went and we had separate rooms and each one was beautifully furnished from ceiling to floor! I took a bunch of pictures for you guys so you can check out how cute it is!  These...

Travel Tuesday: Waxahachie TX

Image
Look no further than Waxahachie for a cute little town in Texas to enjoy! It’s full of fun little shops- think antiques, candy, popcorn, boutiques and a soda shop!  Waxahachie has lots of examples of Victorian architecture and gingerbread- style homes. You’ll find many are bed and breakfasts here! You’ll also see the beautiful Richardson Romanesque courthouse in the middle of the downtown square.  My son and I love going to new little towns and exploring. It’s one of our new favorite things to do in Texas! There are so many cute little towns that we haven’t gotten to yet but Waxahachie has been on my list for a little while!  The town itself is small with a population of only about 43,000 people, it’s a small city with a big heart. It’s coined the “Crape Myrtle Capital of Texas” and boasts a beautiful downtown square with an old courthouse in the middle.  You’ll find plenty of places to explore and see nature as well as shops and places to eat. If antiques is your th...

Travel Tuesday: The Frenchie Boutique Hotel

Hi friends! Well this post is delayed a tiny bit but never mind you’re not missing out on any of the fun! It’s just a day late…Anyways, last week, I took a trip to Round Top, TX, one of my favorite cities!  If you’ve never been to Round Top, you’re really missing out! It’s about 3-4 hours from Dallas and is a quiet little town with a population of 87. That is, 87 people who can vote…but don’t get me started down that path… I was invited by the  Frenchie Boutique Hotel  to come and stay and check out their beautiful property. I jumped at the chance even though it was not on a weekend and was in January- More on that in a minute!  The  Frenchie Boutique Hotel  sits about 1/4 mile from the town square and is easily accessible by car or foot if you’re set on getting some exercise and walking a bit. It’s got a cute little white picket fence and several buildings that sit on the property. The Mainhouse is where we stayed but there’s also a little house that sleep...
