Myrtle Beach?

So every year we plan a girls vacation. We usually go to Panama City Beach for a week. This year we have decided to go to Myrtle Beach. I take my daughters and my friend and her granddaughter go. Just the girls for a full week sitting on a beach…such fun!

We are planning to leave a day early and go to Savannah, GA for a night before heading up to Myrtle Beach. It’s been years since I’ve been to Myrtle Beach. I thought I would see if any of you that read my blog are familiar with that area? If so, are there places you recommend?

My girls are 8 and 6. My god daughter is 18. We want to relax but have fun too. We are also looking for a good seafood restaurant. When we go to PCB we like to eat at Dirty Dicks Crab House. The food is awesome there!

I can’t wait for summer to get here! LOL

If you are familiar with the area and can recommend some things to do, or places to eat, or things we shouldn’t miss…let me know!

Are You Getting Married? Need a Wedding Dress?

As you guys know if I come across a site that offers us plus size gals something of value, I try to mention it on my blog and put it up as a resource for everyone.

A really great site for Wedding dresses has been brought to my attention and I found it be note worthy here. If you are a soon to be bride looking for a beautiful, plus size wedding gown, I suggest you take a few minutes and check out this site:

Chatfields Boutique

They have a line called Glamour Plus which has some of the most beautiful plus size dresses I’ve seen. Not to mention…they use PLUS SIZE Models! So you can actually see how they would look on someone your own size instead of the size 0 model… :)

I have had the pleasure of talking with the shop owner and she is fantastic. So when you go to her site, or visit her store, be sure to let her know that you found out about her shop on my site. I want to get the word out there, that even when you’re curvy…you should feel and look like a million bucks on your wedding day!
