Hi, I'm Amber. Nice to meet you.

A mom of six through birth and adoption, family travel specialist, self-proclaimed chocolate chip cookie connoisseur, Disney lover, and, I hope to be, your new best friend.

I'm passionate about helping moms create lasting memories through delightfully stress-free vacations and also helping parents strengthen the bonds within their families through fun family games, challenges, and family vacations that I share online and across my social media.

When I'm not planning a trip or setting up ping pong balls and solo cups for another chore challenge you'll usually find me in the kitchen. Baking is one of my love languages, and I've become famous for my browned butter sea salt double chocolate chip cookies.
