30 Day Challenge and beyond!

Can you believe that it's the last day of January already?! This year is going to fly by just like last year! Or maybe it's just me, they say once you turn 25 time flies. I joke around that the the next time I look up I'll be 30 o_O ... No, seriously, I'm looking forward to it!! 30 means that my babies aren't babies anymore and that my hectic life will have calmed ALL the way down ((I'm sure I'm going to read this at 30 and laugh at myself ☺))

So, I've decided to do a 30 day blogging challenge, along with all the other changes I'm making beginning with February. Gonna work out ((I swear!!)) Gonna eat right ((no promises ☺)) And I'm going to do a 7 day detox, that will simply include drinking only water and eating mostly raw with minimal cooking, and eating no red meat along with my vities & supplements. The red meat, I think, will be permanent. Let's just see how I do for one week and go from there, lol!

Back to the blogging challenge! I need to get back in the habit of writing daily and I think I'll enjoy this one. I have no idea where I got it from since I saved it sometime last year before I had Cort and life went from 0 to 60. I'll post it here if anyone wants to join me. Make sure to let me know so I can follow! BTW, I'm always looking for cool blogs and ppl for entertainment and motivation so feel free to leave your links, also ☺

RECESSION PROOF FUN FOR THE KIDDIES

Yes, we all know that times are hard right now , but the kiddies shouldn't have to suffer because of it. There is always something for them to do, and you'd better find a way because they will SERIOUSLY drive you crazy. Here are 10 ways to make sure they get your money's worth of fun during these economically stressful days ...

*Drive in movies*
It usually costs about $4 for adults and kids are free. You can take your own food. PLUS, once they fall asleep {and you know they will} they are already comfortable in their car seats, no lugging required.

*Picnic in the park*
Beautiful view & room to run around ... need I say more.

*Backyard sprinkler fun*
You can set up a slip & slide, usually about $10 or use your sprinkler system at home. If you pay for water you can easily set up a little kiddie pool.

*Take a walk*
Relieve your stress while exhausting their energy. Win, win situation.

*Library*
You can attend Children author readings or create your own by using the audio/book sets in the kid section.

*Arts & Crafts*
Put together puzzles, make bird houses using ice cream sticks, make a mural with washable paint, or create decorations for the holidays. The list goes on and on. See your local craft store for more ideas.

*Train ride*
My family & I recently tried this one for the first time, and I def recommend it. It's was $5 each for the Hubby & I and kids ride free. The kids were glued to the window as all the scenery zoomed by. Of course, everything is a competition, so they tried to beat each other yelling out what they recognized. They had a blast and went straight to bed when we got home. ;-) You see my pics from that trip here.

*Wii*
My 3 year old plays better than everyone in the house, so it's def kid friendly. We love it, and it really does take up a lot of time once you get wrapped up in it. Some options include family bowling night, boxing night, baseball night ... we even have a puzzle game that we can use our own pictures on.

*Bake together*
Kids love to help out and they will love to decorate and eat the frosting!!

*Let the kids chose an activity*
You'd be surprised what kids come up with to do. Have you ever watched your children play?? They can seriously go all day doing the most basic activities, and have a blast while doing it. Trust that you will be exhausted but you will laugh none stop!!!

Feel free to post any of your own ideas or your experiences using the ones I've posted!!!
