It helps me to have a couple days with a set theme. We always do tacos on Tuesday, pizza on Fridays and my husband grills/smokes something on Sundays. So really I’m just planning Monday, Wednesday, Thursday.

A favorite easy recipe that the entire family enjoys below! Honey mustard chicken

Well your first issue is Vail lol
Look at New Mexico (angel fire, Red River) and less expensive places in Colorado.
Short answer is no, I don’t think ski trip and affordable go in the same sentence but there are definitely less expensive areas than Vail.

@MotherShip I’ve had piercings at both places (cartilage) and would not bring a young child there. I’d probably wait until middle school, although they are the piercing professionals. Just a vibe that could be considered scary to younger kids

Idk why but the favorite things white elephant parties give me such anxiety. Like im going to be judged for my favorite thing…so dumb I know. Anyways need ideas! Thank you!!

Our family has been through this more times than I’d like to admit. Once you get lice, you’re more susceptible to getting it again (the lice release a pheromone). Keep checking and stay diligent!!! Good luck!!!

Agreed good clean fun but also must know the family and know that it’s okay.
I lost my shit on a solicitor who rang my doorbell at 7:15pm. I had been solo parenting while my husband was on work travel. I was working, parenting, getting kids to sleep and had just gotten the baby down. I was seeing red and literally chased them off my porch.
But if it is another family of middle schoolers then game on!
