I participated in an Influencer Program on behalf of Mom Central for Dove. I received a product sample to facilitate my review and a promotional item to thank me for participating. When my six year old says I'm bored I usually tell her to go clean or organize something. It works. She stays busy and usually ends up playing with whatever I told her to put away. This week asked my family what they wanted to do this summer - a summer bucket list so to speak. Here are some things on our list … [Read more...]

Laundry in the RV
Life in a 32 foot RV travel trailer with four has its pros and cons. To be honest, laundry isn't one of the cons. First, we don't have a lot of room for an excess of laundry.
