Memorial Day Vacation at
Your Home
We are all budget-conscious these days, and holiday travel may not be an option for everyone. There are so many ways to enjoy the first long weekend of the summer, and since it is one of the busiest travel times of the year, maybe you should just plan to stay at your home this Memorial Day. Not only do you get to skip packing suitcases and spending hours in the car, you’ll also save money!
Below are six ideas to keep your kids smiling and get the whole
family involved.
1. Plan the Menu - Memorial Day means picnics, and there are all kinds of fun and colorful dishes you can make to celebrate.
2. Make Decorations - Red, white and blue are the colors of the day. Get creativewith centerpieces, balloons and table settings to make your home a festive holiday venue.
3. Invite Friends and Relatives - The more the merrier, right? And you can always ask your guests to bring a snack or covered dish to share.
4. Have a Plan B - How many times have you known it to rain on Memorial Day? Have a back-up plan in case Mother Nature makes you retreat inside.
5. Have Indoor and Outdoor Games - If the weather cooperates, water games, such as balloons or a slip-n-slide are perfect, but have some board games or crafts ready to go in case you find yourself running for cover. Don’t forget to have some games for the adults too!
6. Remember the Meaning of Memorial Day - The history behind the holiday is sometimes lost along the way. Make sure the kids realize why this holiday exists — to honor the people who fought to give us the freedom to celebrate. So get out your address book or iPhone contact list and start
calling your friends and relatives who have decided to forego the holiday
traffic. With a little organization, you’ll be ready to throw a Memorial Day
bash at your home that no one will soon forget.

weekend a special one, please call me at:
