Weekend thrift

Saturday, me and the kiddos went to poke around at local thrift stores… We took the cash I had which was about $20, which is weird cause I generally don’t carry cash We found this really cool “old school” (pun intended) desk.

Free museums, too.

As the summer approaches and school lets out, we are all itching to get up and go. Whether we are traveling home to see our loved ones or we are exploring a new destination our family likes to take lots of pit stops along the way.

The Sandbox

Yesterday we went down to Hilton Head Island for our first time. We wanted to go somewhere new so went to check out The Sandbox. Its pretty much a big two story play house. They have fun little centers like a ship, a bank, a store, rock climbing wall, and of course and indoor sand … Continue reading

I’m not sure what people thought if they even thought … Continue reading

Bounce-n-Play

Often times we look for indoor play places to escape the elements. Also any place with a bounce house is high on my kids list and generally the admission to these indoor bounce house places are a fraction of the cost of rental, this place is less than 1/10 the price. The most recent place … Continue reading

Stay with your buddy!

You’ve seen it a thousand times. You may have expierenced it yourself. Its the buddy system!!! It may seem like common sense to some and a curse to others to be with someone when traveling. Maybe it is about having the right buddy. Until reccently, I didn’t think traveling was that hard. This was also … Continue reading
