TRAVEL: Our Family Snow Vacation Itinerary – Breckenridge, Colorado | @GoBreck #BreckBecause

Today, we’re kicking off a Travel Series of our Snow Vacation to Breckenridge, Colorado. You may have seen the pictures we’ve shared and curious to know how we decided on Breckenridge. EASY. We had family headed there so when we were playing around with the idea, we found round-trip tickets for a smokin’ deal at $175* via South West Airlines! (To compare, most national round-trip tickets average around $400 these days plus luggage – so yes, we were STOKED!) *Note: This was an airline special that we stumbled upon.

TRAVEL: San Simeon Bay near Hearst Castle @HearstCastle #PhotoGallery

Last month we took a road trip up along the coast of California to Cambria. Have you been? This area was highly recommended by our friends and family. We have heard many wonderful things and wanted to get out of town for a few days to explore an area we have never been. It’s close enough to get out of town for a couple of days and back to work on Monday if you plan it right. About a four hour scenic drive from Orange County with stops like Santa Barbara, you’ll get there in no time. One thing I would like to note, be mindful what time of year … READ MORE >>
