Summer is finally here!!!! After months of nagging the kids to do homework, get up on time and brush their teeth before it's time to leave for school, we finally get a chance to let loose a little.
I'm ready to hit the road -- even with the high gas prices. But money is a big obstacle. We don't have much of it. As a working mom, I have to make sure my children get to quality camps where they learn or get exercise. I don't want a babysitter -- I want my child to grow!
But I'm also all about making memories. I don't want my children to grow up remembering me as that nag who never had any fun. I want them to remember the time we went to the beach or the time we wandered on the nature trail, or maybe the time we got lost on our way to some crazy adventure. That's how I remember my dad, and that's how I want them to look back at me.
So, keep checking back -- I'm formulating some great, but cheap, ideas for the summer. And don't be afraid to post your own ideas here. I'm always looking for new places to explore.
Happy Day Tripping!
