If you live in the greater Portland area or are coming this way for a visit you must check out my daughter, Erin's, new blog Making Memories...One Fun Thing After Another. Erin has two adorable, very active little kids (my grandkids) and they are constantly on the go. She is always searching out fun, creative family activites, many of them free, and posts information about them, along with terrific photos and funny stories about their adventures.
Our favorite rainbow cupcakes
Cracking eggs is tricky business
On her blog you'll find information about kid crafts and cooking, child friendly local restaurants (some even have nights when kids eat free), great local parks and swimming areas, classes for kids, information about local libraries and museums, places to camp, and lots more. She's always updating information so you will know what's happening and when. If you want to go out for delicious burgers and visit Elvis the monkey, you can find that info here too.
Fun at the local waterpark
We love the library
In addition to being a terrific and very involved mom Erin is a school counselor and works with many children so she knows what kids love to do, what the fun new interests and activities are, and where to find them. I hope you will stop by to visit her and say hello. Remember how much fun it was when you first started blogging and other bloggers found you?
Your gkids are so lucky to have a Mom that takes the time to make things fun for them..and being educational at the same time! I'll check her blog out...
