It took me almost 40 years to make my first trip to Zion National Park, and when I finally made it there, I only brought one teenage daughter and my mom. But…we met my old neighbor and friend with 4 of her kids and set out for a day of hiking with our group…
Riding a Rhino Through the Dessert {PSF – Give Me Your Best Shot}
When Necco, my mom and I were in Southern Utah last week, we were able to stay an extra day with my aunt and uncle in St. George. Now a little background – this is the aunt and uncle that used to take me out on their boat during the summers in Lake Tahoe….
A Peek at Our Day at Zion National Park #WW
My mom and 14 year old daughter, Necco, met my friend and 4 of her kids at Zion National Park last week for a day of hiking….and sweating. Zion’s is a gorgeous place to visit…but I’m not sure I’d recommend it during the month of August! More pictures and details when I get back…
Utah’s Shakespeare Festival {PSF – Give Me Your Best Shot}
My mom, daughter Necco and I finished a busy but wonderful day at the Shakespeare Festival in Cedar City, Utah. We caught a sold-out matinee of Peter and the Starcatcher (obviously not a Shakespeare play, but hilariously amazing) and then after an early dinner headed back to the festival for the Greenshow, pictured below….
Boston Harbor Cruises {PSF/GMYBS}
After our first day in Boston was washed out by rain, we decided to take charge the next day and go ahead and buy a guided trolley tour (with Beantown Trolley) for the following day. We figured that if day number 2 was rained out as well, we’d at least be able to see…
Candlepin Bowling in Gloucester, MA #WW
One of my husband’s fondest memories of visiting Gloucester, Massachusetts when he was a kid was going candlepin bowling. When we visited Gloucester last week to see his 92 year old great aunt, he was determined to find a local candlepin bowling alley to give our kids a taste of his fun memory from…
Rainy Day in Boston #WordlessWednesday
Our first full day in Boston, Massachusetts, was not the most ideal, weather-wise. Between the rain, the chilly temperatures that threw us off (shorts and t-shirts aren’t rainy-and-65-degree friendly) and a few hours of car maintenance, we didn’t get much sight seeing done. But what we did do together was so much fun, even…
Smart Summer Snacking Tips – #WonderfulSummer
Yesterday, I got back from a 1300 mile road trip. Road trips inevitably seem to go hand in hand with bad snacking…candy, chips, soda…why is it that we crave junk food when we’re stuck in the car for hours? Never mind the summer road trips…With the whole family home all summer long, our eating…
Cheers! #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
I just spent a long, rainy day in Boston – my first time in Massachusetts. I had my camera safely hidden in my waterproof bag most of the day, but I was able to pull it out during our early dinner at Cheers. The kids didn’t understand the nostalgia that Dad and Mom felt…
National Gallery of Art {DC Field Trip} #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
One of the best things about out of town visitors is the opportunity to be a tourist in my hometown…and I must say that I’ve got one of the best hometowns for touristy stuff. Last year, when my mother-in-law visited, we spent a day at the Smithsonian’s Museum of Natural History. This week, we…
