Family Fun Friday

Looking for free/cheap ideas to do with the family? Check out your county's offerings of parks and nature centers. Since today was a beautiful warm and sunny day I took the kids and met up with some friends for a lunch time picnic at a nearby Nature Center. The kids were able to play on the playground, check out all the creatures inside the Nature Center, and take a walk around the wooded pond with their buddies and my friend and I got an opportunity to catch up a bit. We packed lunches and the park was free so it was a no-cost outing and the kids (and I!) had a blast visiting dear friends.
