School is out and summer is officially here! Summer is my favorite time of year and Disneyland is my favorite place, so it makes sense that I would share about summer at Disneyland. This summer at Disneyland is extra special because it is the Summer of Heroes at Disney California Adventure Park.
… continued from Our Nauvoo Family Vacation, Part 3. So, Nauvoo really is a small town, but there are still a handful of places to eat. And, if you want to drive about 15 minutes, there are several more options. But, we discovered one little place that we loved and had to go back for…

So, it took about 3 hours to drive from St. Louis to Nauvoo. We found a home to rent for the week on VRBO.com, right on the Mississippi River. The house was… so-so (ant infestation and the worst mattress ever) BUT, the location made it all worth it. It was just about a mile from historic Nauvoo, on a fairly secluded drive. One of my favorite things was going for a run along the river. There was nobody around, except a dozen vultures, it was so quiet and beautiful. I loved it!
For the longest time, my husband and I have been wanting to take our 7 kiddos on a family vacation to Nauvoo, Illinois. It’s been over 10 years since we have been there and I thought it was the perfect time to go again. I had just finished reading The History of Joseph Smith by His Mother to the kids, it was spring (less crowds and not so hot!), and we were due for a family vacation. And, let me tell you… it WAS the perfect time to go and the most PERFECT family vacation. Honestly, maybe my favorite one that we’ve ever done. The April weather was amazing. We practically had the whole town to ourselves. It was an awesome bonding experience, we learned a ton, and had some definite spiritual moments. I’m already anxious to go again!

Do you ever get the urge to travel, but talk yourself out of it because your kids are young? It can be easy to think it’s not worth it because the kids won’t remember it or appreciate it. And yes, it’s HARD, but I want to share some reasons why it’s worth it to travel with your kids when they’re young.
I always want to keep you all updated with all the fun and magic happening at the Happiest Place on Earth. This year, Disneyland has so many unique and limited time experiences you don’t want to miss! I shared a bunch last month, but they have added so many more since then, that I just had to share again.
Whether they are bringing back old time favorites or introducing something completely new, Disneyland is constantly innovating. Here’s a glimpse into what you can expect at Disneyland 2017!
Alright, last day of sharing my California family vacation with you. If you’re ever thinking of doing a similar vacation with your family, I hope this has given you some ideas!
So, after hitting up the two parks, we thought it would be a nice break to do something a little more laid back and educational. The tour of the USS Iowa perfectly fit the bill…
So, after Knott’s Berry Farms, we took a day off for relaxing, then headed out bright and early for Universal Studios. I had never been there before and couldn’t wait to check it out! Plus, I had heard all about the new Harry Potter World, and I knew my kids would LOVE that.
We tried to pick a day of the week to go, when it wouldn’t be too crowded. I believe we went on a Thursday, during the school year too. We thought we were safe!
