This weekend we got to go to Philadelphia on a super budget friendly break; our friends, Julie and Brian, let us stay in their house, and our Stepping Stones membership got us into the Please Touch Museum and the Franklin Institute. Pretty much the only thing we spent money on … Continue reading
MembershipWe all know how much I love Stepping Stones, right? And the Bronx Zoo? Mommy and Daddy are supergeniuses because we have family memberships to both – and they have paid for themselves over and over again.
