Family Adventure Day We had so much fun exploring

Family Adventure Day

We had so much fun exploring Jennings State Forest, which is about 10 miles south of Jacksonville. We made it halfway through the Pioneer Trail before the afternoon storm moved in so we didn’t get to experience the day of fun we had planned including locating the natural waterfall, canoeing, and horseback riding. This may have been our first time on the trail, but it definitely won’t be our last.

Take this as your daily reminder to take a break. Did you know the Florida wildlife corridor is all around us in Florida and it’s waiting to be explored? Head over to @livewildlyfl to plan your next Florida adventure.

Step outside the box.

Working from home, my day-to-day routine can be pretty mundane. Every now and then, I like to switch things and up. This week, I decided to have a backyard picnic for lunch.

I headed over to @chickensaladchick and they make planning a spontaneous picnic so easy. Their Quick Chicks are perfect for picnics. Just pair it with some fruit and their delicious Strawberry Lemonade. The Barbie-Q and Olivia’s Old South chicken salads are my favorite.

Growing up, our summer was filled with road trips

Growing up, our summer was filled with road trips and I’ve been intentional about continuing those adventures now that I have kids. #ad

Traveling with kids doesn't come easy.

Our @Hyundaiusa Palisade helps make the drive more doable and comfortable though. Some of our favorite features are Quiet Mode for the Rear Seats to mute the speakers, the many USB charger ports for keep all our devices charged, and the spacious trunk to house all of our necessities.

Below are four tips for a seamless summer road trip with kids.

1️⃣Wear comfortable clothes especially if you're spending a long time in the car.

2️⃣Protect your littles in the back seat from sun glare and keep the vehicle cool with sun shades.

3️⃣Add an organization bin between the Captain chairs so that their items are easily accessible.

4️⃣Use the spacious trunk as a changing station to keep the baby comfortable and things easy for you.

Trading in our sedan for the #HyundaiPalisade was one the best decisions we have made since becoming a family of four.

That’s #myhyundaistory

Saturday well spent

After being quarantined in the house since last week, we were excited to get out a bit and explore today since we tested negative.

We went on our first hike. It definitely won’t be our last since the summer storm cut things short for us. We didn’t get to see the natural waterfall, canoe or go horseback riding.

We ended up driving back into town, grabbing some @alspizza, and having a mini picnic in the park.

The kids had a blast running around and getting all that built up energy out.

It’s safe to say that mama is tired, but so many memories were made today.

How was your Saturday?

On the bright side, it’s Friday and we’re finally able to get out of quarantine. Hopefully we can have a bit of fun this weekend.

Blessing our new home

My husband and I had the pre-drywall meeting with our builder last week. Once our meeting wrapped up, we walked around and wrote scriptures in every room throughout our house. Good thing we did it while we were there last week because we rode by the house yesterday and the drywall is already up.

If you’re interested, I can write a blog post including the scriptures we wrote and some others I jotted down that we didn’t end up using.

Summer is here in Florida, which means it’s time for loads of fun in the sun! AD

Now that backyard season is upon us, we love spending our Summer days outdoors especially now that we’re staying with my parents for awhile.

Lawn care isn’t usually my thing, but to prep for the lawn at our new home, we asked my dad what he uses to keep his lawn so green.

We headed over to @lowes and he told us all about @getsunday. We picked up both the Lawn Kickstart and the Seed + Feed. I absolutely love that they use simple ingredients you can trust, making their lawn care products safe for both families and pets. With the kids running around in the yard, we don’t have to worry about what we’re putting down.

I may have had a little too much fun applying the Lawn Kickstart. It was so easy to use. All you need is 10 minutes and a hose. I simply attached it and started spraying. If I can do it, I know you can too!

If you’re struggling to take care of your lawn, give @getsunday a try. From weeds and pests to growth and repair, they have you covered. You can find it in store at Lowe’s and at Lowes.com.

Life is about living, not working 24/7.

Life is short and tomorrow isn’t promised.

Time is precious so make the most of it now.

It’s about perspective: look at life through a different lens.

Having to cancel our family vacation made me realize just how much I aspire to have freedom. Specially freedom to live life how I want on my own terms.

I would love more than anything to have the ability to just push our trip back to a later date once it’s safe for us to be out without having to reevaluate schedules and/or time off requests.

I promised my babies an epic summer family vacation, and I’m going to try my hardest to make it happen this summer before they return back to school next month.

Ultimate life goal — use the weekend to create the life I want, instead of using it to escape the life I have.
