Life is busy. When you have small children who are always on the go, and you operate a business from home, finding time to breathe is often easier said than done. This summer, in efforts to find more balance, my husband and I have been making time to take the boys outside each day and just enjoy our time together. Whether it’s a walk around the neighborhood, dinner at the park, or something else, it’s been amazing!
We live in such a beautiful area and enjoy all that Utah has to offer. Recently, we decided to take our boys on a nature walk at Sundance Mountain Resort which is not far from where we live. We had such a great time and will definitely be back again to have lunch on top of the mountains! The boys really enjoyed watching butterflies and squirrels, seeing the water flowing in the creek, doing boy things like playing with dirt and sticks, and just having a great time together. It was just the relaxation we needed in the middle of a very busy week! If you live in or visit Utah, definitely check out Sundance Mountain Resort!
What kinds of things does YOUR family do to relax and find balance?
