Homebodies!

So at the beginning of the summer I challenged myself to the "Summer of Fun" and to do it on a very strict budget. I'm here today to update you! We had a great and busy summer! It flew by way too fast! We did tons of fun things and I took tons of pictures until my camera broke so maybe for a while I'll do a "Flashback Friday" and spotlight our activities for a while.

Here's the summer activities rundown:

Hill Air force Base Air Show

Lagoon

Swimming Lessons

Aggie Ice cream Tour

Roy Aquatic Center

Bluebird Candy Factory Tour

Willow Park Zoo

Cub Scout Day Camp

Cox Honeyland Tour

Mendon Pioneer Day Celebration -fair, games, etc.

Camping in Elba, ID

Cache Valley Fun Park

Swimming @ Bear Lake

Union Station Museums

Logan Aquatic Center

Camping up Logan Canyon twice

Wellsville Water slides - A very frightening place! Holy cow!

The Cabin

We also saw 2 movies - G-Force & Up, had picnics at many parks, went to farmer's markets, played in the creek at Pioneer Park, fed ducks, hiked, canoed, played baseball & T-ball and more.

Total cost for all the above activities $209.00!

Then came our "Staycation" to SLC.

We went to:

Hogle Zoo

This is the Place Park

Discovery Gateway

Saw 2 shows at the Clark Planetarium

Played in the Gateway Olympic Fountain

Spent an entire day at Snowbird Summer Resort

Ate @ the Lion House, TGI Friday's, & Burger King LOL

Spent 2 nights in a hotel and swam in the hotel pool lots!

Including all of our gas our total expenditures were $502.43!

My goal was $200 for fun stuff and $500 for the Staycation. I think I did pretty darn good! Being homebodies this summer sure was fun!

Oh and I continued my bargain shopping all summer!
