How To Make the Most of Your Library Card (From a Former Library Employee)
Take it from someone who used to work in a library: people underestimate them. Sure, we all know they're brimming with hardcovers and paperbacks, but I bet you there's an amazing feature at your library that you're missing out on. I don't even need to go to your library to tell you there's something your library offers that you're not utilizing.

Cruising with Kids
Our family LOVES cruising. Every year for the last six years we’ve cruised, and one of those years we even went twice! We’ve cruised Alaska, Europe, California and the Caribbean, and we have no plans of stopping anytime soon. My son who’s seven began cruising at the tender age of one, and from our very first cruise it became clear that cruises fit our family perfectly.

It can often be hard to find the best family vacation spots because not everyone will enjoy a vacation destination the same as the next person. In families of more than two, this can be difficult.

Kelsey LangePublished 6 years ago in WanderHow To Survive That Family Vacation Drive!
1. Make a plan, but not a rigid one. Don't research your stops beforehand. It's OK to have an itinerary for vacay, because let's admit, we all have that one person who has to have complete control! (Trust me, I am one of those people!) But try to add some spontaneous stops to your trip; it's not like your taking a field trip with your elementary class!

It was an annoying February day in 2016 that my boyfriend and his best friend took me to see this car. When I first saw it, a 1987 Toyota Camry Wagon LE with a trash bag was covering up a window, it didn't even run; but for $300, it was mine. Of course, me at the time being a mother of two, I didn't want something that didn't run. I needed something NOW. However, my boyfriend finally convinced me to get it, and we took it to Victory Auto where I paid nearly $1,000 for the timing. Thankfully, it started right up. Now, if you're from Florida and you're 20 years old, you'll know how expensive registering your vehicle is. Nearly $500 for registration, title, and tag, etc. It was EXPENSIVE.
