Winter Activity Ideas for kids – Part 1

Last year I shared a weekly post with winter activity ideas (I shared a lot of our personal favorites) and descriptions of each activity. This year I’m sharing those weekly graphics under one post. Winter can get boring around here especially if you’ve been trapped in the house due to snow storms and super cold weather! Sharing part one today. You can get the detailed post by searching “what to do with kids” then clicking on the appropriate week.

Tip Jar: No Spend January Challenge

It’s that time of year again! A time when we sit down and thoroughly review our budget and set financial goals for the year. I will share more on goals and something new I just started for budget tracking, possibly later this week or next (because it requires it’s own post).
