On our final day in PA, we checked out Imagi-Nation! It is a fun center for little kids with big imaginations. This fun town allows children to explore jobs, their roles, and activities they see their parents do in the great big world. There are hours of play inside Imagi-Nation with an experience that’ll make…
We took the kids to the ocean for the very first time this last month. We stayed up until the wee hours of the morning and woke the kids early to hit the road. Island Beach State Park came highly recommended toys from a close friend that grew up in New Jersey, so that’s where…
Last weekend, Thomas the Train was right down the road from us in Phillipsburg, New Jersey! We decided to make an impromptu day trip to surprise the kids. It was a free event if you just wanted to browse through. If you wanted to ride the Thomas train you had to purchase a ticket for…
We spent our Saturday having brunch out and then headed to the Grim’s Orchards and Family Farm in Breinigsville. Every year we find a fun place to take the kids for pumpkins and Fall events. We grew our own pumpkins this year so we swapped out pumpkin picking for apple picking! Plus, we wanted to…
The first weekend of September we loaded up the camper for another family camping trip. We wanted to get the camper out at least one more trip before it was too cold. While I didn’t grow up camping all the time but in the backyard + a few times in the backyard, Ryan grew up…
America On Wheels in Allentown, was somewhere we had heard a lot of good things about. So during my granddad’s stay, we decided to make it one of our stops. We had a nice picnic down the street at a park and then headed to the antique automobile museum. We were impressed with the variety…
While my granddad was visiting us here in Pennsylvania, we tried to find a variety of places he would enjoy visiting and that we hadn’t experienced yet either. One of the places that we chose was the Lehigh Valley Zoo. I think this might be the first place we’ve gone that I wouldn’t recommend people…
Earlier this year, we discovered a pop-up camper online and decided we just had to have it. It was about an hour and a half away in Philadelphia, so we loaded up the kids in the car and went down to check it out. Getting a new camper was on our list to invest it…
The Fourth of July felt a little different for us this year. There was the bitterness of missing past traditions when we were in Colorado. The past several years we would spend it with my grandma and granddad with a cookout and fireworks. It was an extra time added to the recent list of missing…
Over Memorial Day weekend we headed up to the Pocono mountains to check out the quiet Valley Living Historic Farm. It’s about 45 minutes away from us and we have been getting out and exploring this new state of ours. The farm isn’t always open like it was last weekend but they have events and…
Goodness I LOVE 3-Day weekends! Three full days of family time?! Yes, please!! We’ve really been leaning in and making this place a home. We’re spending time getting out and exploring what we have around here. On Saturday we started out slow and then decided to browse what local events were going on to fill…
