I’m a big believer in giving gifts that are experiences, rather than things. Don’t get me wrong – I give people stuff too. I’m very practical, and sometimes my nieces and nephews just need clothes because they’re growing like weeds! But I really like to give gifts that the receiver will enjoy multiple times, or …
Over Father’s Day weekend, I planned a surprise road trip for Hubby, the kiddo, and me. Our first stop was in Cumberland, Ohio to visit The Wilds.
