The Emerald Coast’s Search For America’s Most Deserving Mom Giveaway
My mom lives on the Emerald Coast, I love visiting her because Destin Florida is beautiful with a capital B. The water truly is an Emerald color. My kids love the Emerald Coast too, they ask me almost every day when we can go back and visit grandma mimi. Well, it may be a while for my family to go back to the Emerald Coast, but it might not be so long for you!
Unpretentious, breathtakingly beautiful and named the “No. 1 Beach Town in the South” for 14 consecutive years by the readers of Southern Living, Florida’s Emerald Coast is famous for 24 miles of sugar-white sands and emerald-green waters. Year-round, vacationers indulge in simple pleasures – from the “World’s Luckiest Fishing Village” and spirited seaside celebrations to challenging holes golf and 14,000 affordable, Gulf-edged accommodations.
Want to win a 2011 Buick Enclave? Or what about a one-week stay for six in a luxurious Destin beach house courtesy of Southern Resorts? Or what about round-trip airfare and 1,000 spending money?

Romantic Vacation Spots Where Would You Go?
Have you thought about where you would love to go for a Romantic getaway? I think about it all the time and it’s the beach. I love being warm, I love the sound of the ocean, and I love the sand in my toes. I love how bright it is and the cool blue color that the ocean has, and the green it has in Destin on the Amalfi Coast.
But, today when I considered the question for Monday Mingle over at Eighty MPH Mom, I thought about what my husband would like. Because it wouldn’t be a romantic getaway without him right? We spent our Honeymoon in Victoria. It was amazing, it was beautiful, and even though it was in the Summer, there was only one really hot day. We rode a water taxi, ate excellent seafood, and visited the Butchart gardens. The Butchart Gardens are lovely. Victoria is quite a tourist place with a lot of history and the buildings further illustrate just how historic Victoria is. One of my favorite things to do was have high tea, I think we had high tea five times.
Welcome to Monday Mingle, where we chat over video answering questions. It’s fun and the more video you do on your blog the more comfortable you will be in front of the camera. Want to participate? Monday Mingle is a Meme over at Eighty MPH Mom. Go over to her site, find the questions, take a video of the answers and post them to share. Then visit everyone that linked up and have fun getting to know each other.
