Nanny to Mommy

There’s nothing quite as memorable as a family vacation at the beach; sun, sand, and surf are the recipe for fun-filled days. Whether you want to kick back and relax with your book, play a game of soccer or join Aqua Surf School, there is something for everyone to do on a beach. With so many beaches to choose from across the U.S., it can be hard to narrow it down to the perfect vacation spot.

These ten beaches are all great family destinations, with options for a quieter getaway as well as bustling boardwalks for a more active stay. You’ll find options on both coasts as well as a top pick for lake lovers.

This summer started out super busy. My husband officiated a wedding, we had end of baseball season games, and my daughter participated in her first softball tournament! With all that going on, I don't know how we managed to squeeze in a quick trip to Hilton Head to celebrate my brother's birthday, but we somehow managed to.

My brother has been seriously asking me for a few years to go. My sister-in-law's family has a condo so the stay would be free. My mom went last year and I always made excuses in the past. Usually if my husband can't go, then I say I can't. But the reality is I could squeeze in at least two beach days if we left right after my daughter's softball practice that ended at almost 9 pm to make the four hour drive.

What an appropriate shirt for my daughter to wear while sharing that Captain Marvel is on Blu-ray, DVD, and 4K TODAY! We loved this movie. My family loved the never give up theme and we surely fell in love with Goose too.

Set in the 1990s, “Captain Marvel” is an all-new adventure from a previously unseen period in the history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe that introduces the MCU’s first stand-alone, female-franchise title character—Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel. When we first meet Danvers, she already possesses her superhero powers, having left her earthly life behind and become a member of an intergalactic elite Kree military team called Starforce, led by their enigmatic commander, Yon-Rogg. But after Danvers has trained and worked with the Starforce team, and become a valued member­, she finds herself back on Earth with new questions about her past. While on Earth she quickly lands on the radar of Nick Fury, and they must work together against a formidable enemy in the form of the Skrulls—the notorious Marvel bad guys made even more dangerous by their shape-shifting abilities—and their leader, Talos, who is spearheading a Skrull invasion of Earth.
