How do you feel about holiday shopping? When I was younger, I used to love waking up at the crack of dawn to take advantage of Doorbuster deals.
What to Pack for a Day at the Beach with Kids
When I was younger, I loved hanging out at the beach. I’d put on my swimsuit, grab a towel and a fun novel and off I’d go. Now that I have a baby and a 3.5-year-old, I seem to fill my whole car with “stuff” when I head to the beach with kids.
Living in the Pacific Northwest, we are lucky enough to be able to head to the Pacific Ocean, Puget Sound or a variety of nearby lakes. My new favorite spot is Lake Sammamish State Park in Issaquah, WA. Not only do they have an amazing new play area with a splash pad, but they have an awesome beach that is perfect for kids. It requires a Discover Pass, but we’ve visited this park so many times that it’s been worth the cost.
How to Teach Kids about Money & Travel Budgets
When ever people hear that we take our kids with us when we travel, they think we’re crazy. The first comment we get is usually that they are too young to remember, so why bother. The next comment is always about the high cost of travel. Yes, traveling with kids can be pricey. I wouldn’t consider our family to be budget travelers, but we are trying to teach our kids about travel budgets and how to stick to them.

What to Pack in Your Travel Diaper Bag (and my pick for a modern diaper bag)
The Bag: Lassig Green Label Neckline Diaper Bag
I’m absolutely in love with my Lassig Green Label Neckline Diaper Bag! It recently won the 2016 Eco Excellence Award. The Lassig Green Label Neckline Diaper Bag keeps me organized and looks like a super chic handbag. I know how hard it is to find a modern diaper bag that’s also functional. Made from pollution-free and recycled plastic bottle fabrics, it includes a 2 large main compartments, lots of pockets, a changing pad, wet pocket, zip pouch, and more. Also notable is that it’s free of PVC, AZO, Phtalates, Nickel and Cadmium. Mine is in Black Melange and it’s my favorite travel diaper bag.
Baby’s First Pumpkin Patch
I absolutely adore holidays where our family can celebrate and do something fun together. While I used to love Halloween when I was growing up, it wasn’t until I had kids of my own that I really got into the Pumpkin Patch experience. I love the crisp air and drinking hot apple cider while strolling down the fields searching for the right pumpkins. Now, that is the highlight of Fall for me and my family!
