Back to School is a busy time for both kids and parents. I know it takes us a bit of time to get back into a routine and weeknights can be hectic. This week, we’re teaming up with Horizon Organic to share a super simple Mac and Cheese Weeknight Dinner where the kids can create their…

We spent the weekend camping with family friends at Manresa State Park, which is south of Santa Cruz. You might remember reading about our Angel Island camping trip with these friends. Manresa Campgrounds is set right above the beach on bluffs. You can hike down to the beach from the sites. Absolutely gorgeous.

post by Melissa Camper, check. Entire family, check. No phones or laptops, check. We headed out on a weeklong camping trip last week. Snow was already starting to fly in Crested Butte and Calla had a week off of school for October break so we left for the desert… in our new old camper. Read…
