Things to Do in Boise: Camel's Back Park

Tuesday, March 31, 2015

I decided to venture out with my son and try a new park and playground. We went and visited Camel's Back Park. Camel's Back Park is North of Downtown Boise. The traffic pattern was a little weird in some spots going and coming to the park. The park contains a huge field for throwing frisbees, football and/or lounging about with a good book. The playground was a good size. There were numerous "tunnels" for a 17 month year old to climb up, swings and slides. The slides were moderate height - not too steep.  Camel's Back Park also has access to the Foothills with several
trails. The trails looked steep, sandy and a little rough. I wasn't sure about taking my little one on it although I did see some parents with their kids walking around on them.


Camel's Back Park is located at 1200 W Heron St. Boise, ID.

Snow Canyon State Park

Tuesday, March 31, 2015

My husband had a Spring Convention to attend in St. George and my son and I tagged along. While we were in St. George, we went and visited Snow Canyon State Park. The views of the rocks were amazing. We walked along an easy trail and found a spot for my son to play in the white sand. He loved it. While hiking, we saw a couple of lizards either crossing the path or sun bathing. Snow Canyon would be a great place for picnicking, camping, hiking and more!

If you go to Snow Canyon, I would suggest bringing:
  • A Camera to take pictures
  • Water
  • Pail and Shovel to dig in Sand
  • Cash ($6 per vehicle entry fee)
  • Sunscreen
  • Hiking Snacks
  • Bug Spray
  • Proper Hiking Clothes and Shoes
 

Getting Ready for Easter

Monday, March 30, 2015

We subscribe to the magazine, The Friend, published by our church, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. In the March issue, they had this cute insert with a scripture to read each day the week of Easter and a picture from the New Testament. I glued the insert on to cardboard, placed clear contact paper on it, and added stick-on velcro to attach/reattach the pictures so I could use it year after year. To make your own, you can find the insert by clicking here.


General Conference Board

Monday, March 30, 2015

I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (aka Mormons). Twice a year, we gather to hear messages from the Prophet and Apostles. To make it more fun for my son, I decided to make a General Conference Board that I found on "A Day in My Life" blog. I bought a smaller board so I had to make adjustments - condensing the pockets and putting the topics in a pocket. Since I made the adjustments, there was more room. I added a picture of Christ found on LDS.org and made it into a velcro puzzle. I also added a place for my son to add "hearts" as he felt the spirit.
To make your own, go to A Day in My Life Blog, found here or A Few of My Favorite Things, found here.

$10 Gift Card with a $50 Grocery Purchase at Target

Monday, March 30, 2015

If you get the Target's Ad with the Sunday Newspaper, you may notice a coupon for a $10 gift card with a $50 grocery purchase. If you don't get the Sunday Newspaper, you can ask for it at Target's Customer Service Desk. I used the coupon today along with my Target cartwheel (getting 5% off most of my items), manufacturer's coupons and Target coupons from their website. You can find Target coupons here and Target Cartwheel here. I priced everything out using Target's website and ad. I priced everything to about $50. With deals like this, I like to make sure to get items that will restock my pantry and that we use on a regular basis. I also go early in the week, if you wait too long most things will be gone!

I always hand the cashier my coupon for the gift card first and then my other coupons. Whenever, Target has deals like this I save my gift cards for promotions where if you buy something you get a gift card back. I had $35 in gift cards from the previous week making my total purchase around $5 out of pocket and received a $10 gift card.
