And, now for Cozumel. This is the 3rd and final post telling you all about our most recent family vacation… a cruise to Roatan, Belize, and Cozumel. We had a ton of fun and it’s always neat to be able to share our experience with you.
I hope if you’re wanting to go on a family vacation (a cruise??) that this will give you some ideas and tips to help make yours the best vacation ever!
What to pack depends on whether or not you are flying or driving, and how much space you have in either case. But, there are some general rules that you can follow either way. Remember, even if you have gobs of space to bring your entire wardrobe, you’ll be living in close quarters while on your vacation and over packing is not a good idea.
Welcome to Part to of our family vacation, also known as The Best Family Cruise Ever! We had a ton of fun and I’m excited to share what we did to maybe give you some ideas for a future vacation.
Today, I’m sharing all about our experience cave tubing in Belize, what you need to know if you go, and a little more about our time on the boat. Tomorrow, I’ll wrap up with Cozumel and my final thoughts!
After nearly a year of planning, we finally knocked-out our 2015 family vacation and it was a BLAST!! I’m convinced we have discovered the best family cruise out there. If my 6 young kids loved it, I’m sure yours will too!
I’ve been anxious to share our pictures and experience with you, along with some tips for cruising with kids. This is our… one, two… um, third cruise with the kids and we plan on many more!
Today we have a quick, easy, and family-friendly salmon recipe baked to perfection for you. With the new year comes new resolutions and many of us are trying to eat and feed our families more nutritiously. This recipe is a great one to get kids eating fish. The creamy Parmesan mixture makes it oh-so-tasty and really, who doesn’t love cheese?!
Happy 2016 my friends!! Just like many of you, I was so ready for a new year to begin! There’s something exciting about the chance to start fresh. As 2015 came to a close, I spent time thinking back over the year and really wanted to set some new goals. Then one day shortly after…
Today, I’m delivering a daily installment of Cinnamon Puff Rolls. a.k.a. Cinnamon Cigars or Cinnamon Puff Pastry Rolls. Cinnamon Cigars doesn’t sound very appetizing does it? Who’d want to eat a cigar? Eww! These Cinnamon Puff Rolls are ridiculously quick and easy to make. Just a case of whisking a small amount of dry ingredients together and sprinkling over the dough, rolling the dough up, and baking – hey presto!
I really don’t care too much for New Years. It’s not just that we have yet another reason to over-eat (which I always do), stay up late (which I am having a harder and harder time doing), or deal with the nuclear fallout which are my grumpy kids (and their grumpy parents) the day after. It’s the whole New Year’s resolution forum I hold in the highest disdain as well. In fact, I have boycotted the whole institution of resolution making for the last several years. I just can’t see why I should set goals that I most likely will not have the will-power to achieve.
