Today’s #foodiefriday post is dedicated to all the people (like us) who have started a spring clean pantry clean out! Chili-spiced rice and beans (with corn because we had an extra can in the pantry and sausage because ask cleaning out the freezer) for dinner! 🍚Approaching pantry clean-out like Chopped gets the creative juices flowing. And was pretty tasty! The three year old gobbled it up and the seven year old asked for seconds! 🍚Spice mix used is in the stories. 🍚Might start a highlight of the pantry clean out randomness to peek at when feeling lost on what to make for dinner. . . #milmomadventures #pantryorganization #pantrycleanout #chili #rice #beans #riceandbeans #choppedhomeedition #budgetfriendly #domorewithless #whatsfordinner
Who likes to save money as they travel? We do! 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️ As promised - on the blog today we list out what we packed for our Grand Canyon adventure to help save money and keep us warm. There is a baggage limitation when going on the @gcrailway so we maximized what we could bring for our snowy adventure in @grandcanyonnps - link in bio to the newest post. You can also search “Grand Canyon packing” on www.milmomadventures.com to read more. . . Definitely recommend a trip to any National Park to connect as a nuclear family (or whomever you travel there with) and disconnect for a little from the Internet world. It is worth the investment. . . #milmomadventures #grandcanyon #grandcanyonnationalpark #grandcanyonnps #grandcanyonsouthrim #grandcanyonrailway #motherhoodunplugged #familyadventures #packinghacks #savemoney #budgetingtips #packing
Staying connected with our family, our extended family, our military family and ourselves is not an easy task. There are so many different activities pulling at our time - work, spouses’ work, kiddos activities, volunteering, exercising, errands, life...we could go on. This cup of coffee ☕️ is a reminder to pause, and connect. ☕️ When my spouse was deployed I would use the What’s App Messenger to stay connected even though we were in different countries and time zones. The app worked and I could leave messages when he woke up. These messages were sent over that first sip of coffee. ☕️ Connect with family and friends anywhere with the Marco Polo app. The free app allows video messaging to be sent to friends and it waits until they can watch it and send it back. Once a week that cup of joe is used to connect via that app. ☕️ To connect with family 3,000 miles away, we use the Kidvelope website to crack jokes and play games across the miles. ☕️ Once a month, I have a scheduled phone call with a friend over a cuppa so we can stay connected across the miles. . . To stay connected with our family, our friends, ourselves- it takes an effort, and technology. . Check out these fellow mothers and spouses to see their tips and tricks on staying connected among this nomadic military life: @airmantomom @bravecrate @movingwiththemilitary @seatoseawithlove @soldierswifecrazylife @theseasonedspouse @thewaitingwarrior @threelittleferns @upliftinganchor @mrsnavymama . . #coffee #connect #family #friends #framily #militarylife #milspouse #milspouseblogger #momblogger #nomadiclife #milmomadventures
It’s LEGO NINJAGO Days at @legolandcalifornia! We have watched the entire series and @legoninjagomovie, so we had to go check it out. It was a fun day with Ninja workshops, family build time and more showings of the 4D movie! Check out the Ninja’s dragons in NINJAGO mini land! . . If your kid (or you) is a LEGO NINJAGO fan, check out the Legoland NINJAGO Days again on February 22-23. No extra cost, just regular ticket! . . #milmomadventures #llcninjagodays #legolandcalifornia #milmomadventureslegoland #legoland #ninjago #miniland #familytime #familyadventures #motherhood #scavengerhunt #weloveninjago #welovelego #bricktastic
Flexibility. Life as a parent means having flexibility. Valentine’s/Palentine’s/Galentine’s Day was yesterday on the calendar, but creating a @crunchpak inspired delish board can be done when we are able to celebrate ❤️ and share as a family because that is what we all need. . . Do you have a fun snack board? I saw some pancake boards on Pinterest that look scrumptious! . . #milmomadventures #crunchpak #pretzels #yogurtpretzels #apples #strawberry #chocolatecoveredstrawberries #sweettooth #snack #galentinesday #parenthood #motherhood #family
Let’s go on an Adventure! . . The beauty of a posted bucket list is that we can look at that list whenever we are approaching a holiday or a long weekend (or whenever) to decide where we want to adventure to! It makes being a (little) spontaneous a bit easier. . . Do you have a bucket list? We have some on the blog (www.milmomadventures.com) to check out! Link in bio. . Any plans for the weekend? . . #milmomadventures #adventure #familyadventures #bucketlist #ocbloggers #milspouseblogger #momblog #optoutside #motherhoodunplugged #ocmomblog #happyvalentinesday
