This was our favorite Groupon last year!  I was hoping to see it again.

You’ll get a 4 mile parasail for two at Paradise Parasail (at Osage Beach) for just $70.  We were able to upgrade last year for an additional $20. The upgrade provided pictures, an extra freefall, and half price for life sails!

The boys got to go last year, this year it’s the girls’ turn!

Get your Groupon to Paradise Parasail here: Paradise Parasail Groupon (under Springfield, Missouri)

My kids just have two and a half days of school left before they are home for the entire summer!  I really think that summer vacation is the hardest thing I do as a work at home mom.  My kids are just steps away- it’s hard to find the discipline to work! 

I’m always on the lookout for fun summer projects.  I want something that years from now, they will say ‘Hey Mom, remember when we __________.” 

I found these kits on Amazon today that should definitely provide the WOW factor!

Mr. Root Beer 20041 Home Root-Beer-Making Kit is just $13.99 (was $24.99) and it’s got some great reviews!

Make Your Own Chewing Gum Kit: $14.14

Toysmith 4 M Weather Station Kit #4573: $10

Copernicus – Brew it Yourself – Gingerale: $14.99

New Summer Fake-ation Series

May 9, 2012

A few years ago, the ‘Staycation’ made it’s debut.  Everyone was broke and looking for ways to make staying at home more fun.  Sadly, sometimes staying home can cost more than a short trip.  I can only take so much sitting by the kiddie pool, sipping on strawberry lemonade.
