Fulltime Families Summer Scavenger Hunt sponsored by Lazydays the RV Authority
Fulltime Families Summer Scavenger Hunt This summer we have had an awesome time as a family participating in the Fulltime Families Summer Scavenger Hunt sponsored by Lazydays the RV Authority! My friends have noticed all the fun pictures on Facebook and want to know where they can find the lists for each week! With permission from Fulltime Families I have printed them below and a free printable PDF is coming! While this was done online it can easily be translated to an offline game between friends or a group! It was so much fun! We still have one more week left to go, so I will update week 4 when…

Healthy Kids Lunch Boxes on a Budget
Save money and help your budget with these healthy kids lunch boxes! [wp_ad_camp_3] As some of you know, we home school our kids and travel the country in our RV. Since we home school we don’t have a real need for packable school lunches. A reader reached out to me to ask if I could do a series on healthy kids lunch boxes that are budget friendly and Paleo! She asked and we delivered! Something awesome came of this! We now have breakfast and lunch ready to go everyday! We just pull it out of the refrigerator, re-heat if needed (breakfast) and serve. This makes my life so much easier, especially…

Washi tape toilet paper roll owls!
Washi tape toilet paper roll owls [wp_ad_camp_1] The kids were bored this morning so we decided to dig through the craft box! These are made with just a few simple items! Need: Colored Tape (I prefer paper washi tape since you can re-position it) Scissors Glue Embellishments for eyes and beaks! I cut about 3 inches at a time off of the paper towel roll. Folded the centers down to make ears. Cover with tape. Add eyes and beaks! **Like this and other crafts? Be sure to subscribe to my blog to be notified of new posts! ** [wp_ad_camp_3]

Stone Mountain Park Christmas: Stone Mountain, Georgia
A few weeks ago we had the fabulous privilege to go to Stone Mountain Park Christmas festival in Stone Mountain Georgia while visiting some friends! We did not know what to expect, but let me tell you… this place far surpassed anything we could have imagined! This barn had a THREE STORY jungle-gym complete with slides and foam ball shooters for the kids to completely wear themselves out at… and for some of the parents to take a seat and relax! Once the sky’s turned dark they lights lit up… the whole “town” was glowing beautifully and it was so festive! Couple that with random carolers and you have some…

Winter Storm Atlas: Cheyenne, Wyoming
[wp_ad_camp_2] Winter Storm Atlas was forecasted to bring us lots of snow here in Cheyenne! We spent the days before playing in the sun, getting the RV ready for the freezing temperatures and preparing for the snow! Fortunately it wasn’t as bad as it was forecast, but these Texans still got to have a little snowy fun! The night before the boys set bowls out to catch fresh snow so that we could make some snow-treats! First, we made snow-cream! There are a lot of different recipes for this, but I used what I had on hand! Ingredients: Fresh SNOW, Sweetened condensed milk and Maple Syrup! The boys added some…

Old West Museum Cheyenne, Wyoming
We marked another attraction off of our Cheyenne, Wyoming Bucket List! We visited the Old West Museum! We got to peek inside one of the first RV’s! The boys wanted to know where the kids’ room was! lol This is the first time we have seen such a huge collection of wagons! We especially loved the undertaker’s wagon and the milk wagon. Grant took his weekly bath. 🙂 They played in the playroom while Patrick and I went back through and looked at some of the cool, old wagons. ... and apparently cowboys are supposed to be tough and mean. While we were there we watched a rather long (and…

We named our homeschool!
I ran across an article that talked about naming your homeschool. At first I thought it was silly, but then I realized that some states actually require you to name your homeschool and they treat it as a private school. While Texas does not require you to name your homeschool I thought it would be fun to do anyway! Why name your homeschool? – Some co-ops and umbrella schools might require your homeschool to be identified by name. – If you make a student or teacher ID you will need a school name. – Some incentive programs like Book-it ask for it. – You’ll need a name if you are…
