This is a sponsored travel post with hoteltravel. All opinions are mine alone. This summer we visited Buena Park, CA and had a great time. We used points to stay in a local hotel for free. Unfortunately, all those points are gone. So the next time we visit Buena Park we will have to find the best hotel deal that we can. When I travel with my kids, I like to stay in top-rated hotels that are affordable. This week, I've learned about a new website: hoteltravel.com and I am so glad that I … [Read more...]
Why You Should Take the Kids to Wenatchee, WA
Our family took a great road trip this month to Wenatchee WA. Just three hours away from our home, Wenatchee was such a fun two-night trip that we cannot wait to do it again next summer. We had every intention of enjoying the famous Eastern Washington heat, and were very surprised by a cooler second and third day in Wenatchee. But, we didn't let it deter us. In fact, a cooler day was great for the sight seeing and attractions we visited. During our two night stay in Wenatchee, WA, we … [Read more...]
Canoe Journey 2016: Paddle to Nisqually
A special thank you to Adams Natural for supporting our PNW outdoor journeys this summer. This year our canoe family traveled to Nisqually for the 2016 annual canoe journey.

Plus, it offers pullers a chance to take a personal journey towards healing and recovery of culture, traditional knowledge and spirituality. Paddle to Nisqually … [Read more...]
Knott’s Berry Farm Buena Park, CA
During our annual family reunion with my husband's family in Southern California, we decided to extend our stay for two nights and visit the Pirate's Dinner Adventure and Knott's Berry Farm. We were so glad we did. We used hotel points we accumulated from previous traveling and had a fabulous time. The day we checked into our hotel we also went to the movies to see Finding Dory. It was a fun way for our family to end our vacation. Our family actually separated when we arrived at Knott's … [Read more...]

Kid-Friendly Vacation: San Diego, CA
Because, my husband's family lives in San Diego, CA we've always loved taking our kids down there for a great kid-friendly vacation.

There is just so much to do in San Diego. It really is a great … [Read more...]
The Kids’ Zone at Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium is Awesome!
This is a sponsored post with Hotel Murano and Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium. The love for this zoo is mine alone. We've visited the Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium once with our kids and had a great experience. My son was pretty young and didn't remember it at all. So we knew it was time to go back for a second visit. (Honestly, we can't wait for the chance to go back again!) When we walked in, we turned left and visited the Kids' Zone first. My kids did not want to leave. They … [Read more...]
