This post was originally published in April 2017 and later updated in July 2018. Flying with a toddler is no fun, no matter which way you slice it. But look on the bright side: as read more
Not really a baby, not quite a toddler: from 14-22 months is about the toughest time to be traveling with a little one (or at least so I've read). And from our experience so far, I can read more
The holidays are quickly approaching and it's never too early to start thinking ahead! About this time every year I start to think "oh crap, how is it Halloween next week?" I rush to get read more
Ah! Our trip to Mexico is coming up quick! To say I’m excited would be an understatement, but I’m also freaking out a little bit! Planning and packing for Mexico has brought up a whole new read more
Can we talk about something for a sec? I didn't think I'd ever do it, but here I am: I'm a backpack mom. It started when my crossbody diaper bag was simply getting too heavy to lug around read more
We're off again! And this time with a whole crew! We'll be spending the next few days in Napa Valley with my 2 sisters, brother, and their families (4 kids in total)! Many have doubted read more
When packing for a trip, baby toys are the absolute last thing that go in my bag. That's not to say they're not important (they really are essential), but it can be so easy to get carried read more
In the one long year Evelyn's been on this earth, our little girl has gotten 18 flights under her belt. 18! Not bad for a baby. The girl's flown more than I had by the time I was 20! So read more
When it comes to traveling, packing light is a must. But traveling with a baby? That's a little bit trickier. Between the extra car seat, stroller, pack and play, and luggage, "packing read more
![Have you seen our guide to Zion National Park??⠀
.⠀
[click the link in our bio if you missed it. 😉]⠀
.⠀
If I had to describe Zion in a word, it’d be: awe-inspiring.⠀
.⠀
Like seriously, this place just BLEW us away and I would 1000% recommend any nature-loving families include it on their bucket list for 2020!⠀
.⠀
BEST WAY TO GET TO ZION? ∙ We found a cheap flight deal to St. George, then rented a car (it's about an hour's drive to the town of Springdale, just outside of Zion National Park).⠀
.⠀
WHEN TO GO? ∙ I recommend going in the early spring or late fall to avoid the massive crowds!⠀
.⠀
WHAT TO BRING? ∙ Good hiking shoes, layered clothing, and a lightweight backpack for lots of snacks and water!⠀
.⠀
HOW MUCH TIME DO WE NEED? ∙ 2 days would be sufficient, though you can hit all the highlights in 1 (or could easily spend 3 days if you love hiking!) Consider adding an extra day for a trip to Bryce Canyon, about a 2 hour drive from Springdale.⠀

What's your favorite US National Park that families MUST visit!?⠀
