What every family road trip needs #LifeConnected

  This post is sponsored by Netgear, but all thoughts are my own. We are a family of road trippers. We love our road trip adventures - from the unique sights that we see outside the car window to the extra family time that we get to spend together while we’re crammed into a small […]

A Day in Denver, Colorado + Hammond’s Candies Factory Tour #PSF

  When we were making plans for our month-long road trip this summer, one of the places that I was most eager to stop through was Denver. My best friend and her family moved to the Denver area (which, in case you’re not familiar with US geography, is REALLY FAR from Maryland…) nearly 2 years […]

High Ropes Course at the Museum of Natural Curiosity #PSF

  My kids and I have been to the Museum of Natural Curiosity at Thanksgiving Point (Utah) many, many times, thanks to my mom’s Grandparent’s Pass. So my kids had seen the High Ropes course and commented on it dozens of times. At the end of this summer (yes, I’m still making my way through […]

Grand Canyon, North Rim: Family Travel Spot #PSF

  One of the highlights of our recent road trip was visiting the Grand Canyon for the very first time. Since we were driving in via Mesquite, Nevada, we headed toward the North Rim (which is the less-busy side) and absolutely fell in love. I would have loved to stay in the Grand Canyon for […]

Dinosaur National Monument #PSF

  It’s time to step back in time…to the age of the dinosaurs. I’ve been to dinosaur museums before. I’ve stood at the foot of enormous, life-sized dinosaur bones (casts, really). I’ve read dinosaur books to my kids. But never before had I walked in their footsteps, touched the bones, observed where they walked….and died. […]

10 Things You Should Know About Visiting the Petroglyphs in Vernal, Utah #PSF

  One of my favorite days of my summer road trip was the day that I spent at the McConkie Ranch Petroglyphs in Vernal, Utah (up Dry Fork Canyon). While my husband and oldest son were off hiking the High Uintas and my girls were all visiting my oldest daughter’s college campus, my mom, dad, […]

Summer Memories #PSF

We had the best night tonight with #Maryland friends out in #Utah. Love these guys!

  I have been away from home more than I’ve been home since mid June….and I’m gone again this week. Since I don’t have all of my vacation photos on my little travel Chromebook, I decided to share a few of my favorite somewhat random Instagram photos from our travels. What have you been up […]

The Value of Traveling: 10 Reasons Everyone Should Travel

The Value of Traveling 10 Reasons Everyone Should Travel

  This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of U.S. Cellular. The opinions and text are all mine. Last year, my family of seven packed up our minivan with suitcases and tents (and a bunch of other things) and set off on a road trip of epic proportions. We traveled from Maryland […]

Four Corners Monument: What You Need To Know Before Visiting #PSF

Four Corners Monument

  One of the most anticipated stops on our road trip from the East Coast to the West was the Four Corners Monument, but there are definitely a few things I would have liked to know about visiting before we made the trek out there. Four Corners is the only place in the United States […]

  After 25 days of being on the road, we are finally on the final stretch of our journey back home. We’re heading home! We’ve had so much fun this summer that it’s hard to want to go home…but there’s something special about home. My own bed. My own computer. My own refrigerator (no more […]
