Dirty Myrtle 2017: Day 8


8:00
It's the last day 😢 The intention this morning was to get up and go for a sunrise walk on the beach, but we were both dead tired so that sunrise walk turned into just a walk, which I am honestly ok with!  
Rockin' last night's lipstick...

But we found seashells and sharks teeth!

Bye beach...

10:00
In about an hour we cleaned up from our walk, got ready, finished packing, and loaded the car to head home… Pretty impressive timing though! How about a room tour before we leave?
This was the entryway 

Which led into the kitchen

And then the living room!  We literally barely moved from these recliners this week

Then there was our bedroom.

And the interesting bathroom... It had one sink connected to a room with a shower and toilet, and one with just a toilet.

See what I mean?

And then it was like a hallway into our bedroom!

And our kinda sad pool we never really used, we used another hotel's...

Now we are headed to Paula Deen's for breakfast! 

11:45
Lunch was good, but breakfast is the best… 
We had breakfast casserole, bananas foster french toast, biscuits and gravy, the best bacon in the world, fried potatoes, and pigs in a blanket! 

But the cinnamon roll they give you is still the best

After lunch we decided to walk around Broadway at the Beach for a bit (and maybe walk off some of our lunch…) 

But now sadly, it is time to leave 😢 

2:30
Just stopped at a rest stop and are switching drivers… I can't handle anymore! 

6:00
We made it to about half an hour from home and were starving and running out of gas, so we had to make another stop! 
We ate a quick dinner at Sonic, filled up the car and are about to get back on the road.

8:45
Well I've been home a little while now… It is sad that the trip we have planned and pined over is already gone, but it is good to be home. We had an amazing time together just chilling, shopping, chatting, and catching up on sleep! Our condo and the owner were amazing, and we couldn't have asked for better. The food was great, and most of all, the beach was amazing.  

But as I said, it is also good to be home. Sadly, there were some scary things that happened to occur on this vacation as well. During the weekend there were multiple shootings in Myrtle Beach. Though they were not immediately close to us, they were on 4th Avenue and we were on 76th, which is close enough. We also realized later that we had driven through the exact location of one of the shootings only hours before it occurred. Our old lady ways of being in early paid off for us, but others weren't so lucky. I don't mean to end on such a sad note, but no matter your age you should take this as a learning experience and always be careful and cautious of your surroundings. We were extremely careful and still ended up too close for comfort. Let our thoughts and prayers be with all those who were hurt or who had to witness it. Peace and love to you all❤️ 


I would like to think you all who read and came on this vacation with us. I so enjoy relaying my days to you all in this fashion, so I hope you enjoy it as well! I hope you are having wonderful summers wherever you are! Much love!

Summer Essentials: Makeup Bags

This is the first of a new series called the "Summer Essentials"!  Enjoy! :) So... when you are going somewhere on vacation you can't just carry all of your makeup around in your hands, I mean who does that! We've got to pack in style! I found quite a few different makeup bag, case, and organizer options, and most are at relatively cheap prices! Check them out and find the one that is perfect for you!! :) 1. This is a small sequined cloth bag with a zipper top. Cloth is less structured and is more apt to absorb spills, but you can also just toss it into the washing machine when it gets dirty.  This would be a bag I would stick into my purse for the day or for an overnight trip. It's dimensions are   7" High x 10" Wide x 2" Deep It comes in Blue and White, Black and White, and Pink and Black. $5.80 at  www.forever21.com/beauty_acc 2.

Bulu Box: February

So I saw a coupon on this Subscription box which would make every box you ever ordered $5 instead of $10, which sounds great right?  Not so my friends... I figured this would be a nice health subscription box with healthy food and workout tips, maybe with a few supplements... It is almost entirely supplements, and I am not a big enough health nut to buy into it all... So needless to say, I canceled, but thought I'd let you know what I received and a couple of the small highlights! The first thing I pulled out was the Vital 4U Fiber Drink which is: "Packed with soluble prebiotic fiber...to promote better gut health and digestion."  These are $12.00 for a 12 pack, and I received two, so basically a $2 value.  I gave these to my mom to add into our smoothies she makes for an added boost, because I didn't want to drink them straight. There were the only things I was SUPER excited about! I love gummy vitamins!  These were the best I had ever tried, with a g...
