This should have felt like a quick week, and yet it felt like it went on forever! The best thing about this weekend is going to be the weather! I plan on sending the girls out to ride their new bikes and scooters.
If you are looking for somewhere to take the kids for free check out these two ideas:
Home Depot will be holding their monthly workshop this Saturday. The kids will be making a Savings Shed!
The Harrisburg Farm show also starts tomorrow! There will be plenty for the kids to do and the best part is admission is FREE! Parking is $10...check out the website for more info http://www.farmshow.state.pa.us/
Enjoy your weekend...and if anyone has any other ideas please let me know!
P.S. For those couponers out there...I heard there are 6 coupon inserts in the paper! Anyone interested in learning to coupon and how to organize your coupons...let me know!
Everything Berks County families need to know about what is going on in our community!

Long winter days!!!!
It has been way too long since I have posted, but here goes! As we settle into winter I have found that I have to be more and more creative to keep the kids busy! Recently we took them to the Movie Tavern in Collegeville! What a fun time...and the prices are even a little cheaper than a traditional movie theatre. Check out this site http://www.movietavern.com/.
I will post some ideas for this weekend...since the weather promises to be warmer! Hope everyone had a great holiday! If you have any ideas...please let me know!

I'm Back!!!
I know it has been a long time since I have posted anything, but now that summer is here there are some amazing activites for kids!!!
The first I love is the playground program in Alsace and Exeter Townships!! The program runs Monday through Friday from 9am until 2pm. The cost is $8 a week or $45 for the summer!! I love the weekly option to pay $8 and choose the weeks you would like to go. On Fridays, they usually have field trips for the kids to go on and are an additional charge. http://www.exetertownship.com/ and click on Parks and Recreation.
I signed my girls up for every library program that Exeter Library has to offer! The girls are having a wonderful time (and learning as well). Tomorrow night we have a multicultural potluck dinner and the girls are looking forward to trying some new foods. On Friday they have a great make and take for all ages and we spent nearly an hour there on Friday!! Be sure to call the library and make sure there is no registration required! http://www.berks.lib.pa.us/
We also love the free movie program running at the IMAX in Reading! They run Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday mornings at 10am. This week they are playing Shrek Forever After and next week is Barnyard : The Original Party Animals. http://www.rctheatres.com/ and scroll to the bottom and click on The Family Theatre.
My final tip for the night is to sign up all the kids for free bowling!!! You will recieve weekly coupons to print out and the only thing you have to pay for are shoes. My girls and I loved using this on really hot days and rainy days! http://www.kidsbowlfree.com/
Check back daily for more summer tips to help keep the kids busy!!
Coupon tip for the day:
Giant Food Stores has a great GM cereal deal this week! Buy 4 GM cereals and use your coupons for each box. You will automatically get $6 off at check out and a coupon for a free gallon of milk!!! This is the time to stock up on cereal!! Let me know if you have any questions!!
Thank you for keeping with me and I cant wait to hear all of your ideas for keeping your kids busy this summer!!!

Coming home!!
This has been a very exciting week for my family, because my husband is coming home from a year long deployment! It is amazing how much has changed in 1 year and how much we have been able to achieve in this year! I went into this deployment unsure of how I would be able to make it this year without my hubby and how the girls would make it without their dad! Not only have we done it, but I think we have become stronger and more confident and made us a better family for the future. When I look back at this year I look at the 5 weeks I spent with the girls in Europe, Avery's first day of 1st grade, Sydney's first day of preschool and all the other firsts that have come and gone this year. This military life isn't for the faint of heart, but I am proud of the way we have come through stronger on the other side!
