We recently spent two full days in Yellowstone National Park. This park has stunning waterfalls, gorgeous hiking trails and of course plenty of erupting geysers. The natural beauty in Yellowstone is absolutely jaw dropping! With so many extraordinary spots to see & explore in the park, it’s impossible to see everything in this amount of time. A large amount of time will be spent driving to each unique feature. 2 Day Itinerary for Yellowstone National Park We started our journey by entering the south entrance. Then making the entire lower loop before heading to View Post
Keeping Kids Entertained While Traveling
Taking a road trip can be so much fun, especially once you finally arrive at the destination. Keeping kids entertained while traveling is important and helps make the trip go smoothly. When traveling with kids, whether it's a long road trip or a plane ride across the country, we as parents have our work cut out for us. Gone are the days where we just pack the bags, throw them in the car and off we go. I now spend more time packing and organizing activities to keep my little guy entertained so we can make it to our destination without pulling my hair out. Keeping Kids Entertained While View Post

Thank you to Razor scooter for sponsoring this post. All opinions are my own. Our days are spent mostly outdoors.

So when we received the Razor A5 LUX Kick Scooter we took the challenge to create our own DIY scooter obstacle course. My son had a blast creating his own obstacle course.

Heading to the beach soon? Here is a list of beach essentials that you need to bring with you! In a few short weeks my family is packing up and heading to San Diego for a week of fun in the sun.

Sloppy Joe Muffins
Made with beef, BBQ sauce and cheddar cheese, these sloppy joe muffins are sure to be a family favorite! I’m going to be honest, sloppy joes aren’t a recipe that I get excited to make. But my son absolutely devours them, so I always give in when he begs me to make them. Sloppy joes are messy, always have too much sauce and not enough bread! So this week, I decided to switch up the recipe a bit and guess what? This is my kind of sloppy joes! This recipe isn’t as messy and is still kid friendly. Yay for making a recipe that everyone enjoys! The Best Sloppy Joe View Post
