Thank you for showing easy meals that were healthy and balanced. So many easy meal ideas are just a lot of cheese, noodles, and very little veggies or fresh fruit. These all look delicious.
Aw thank you so much! We absolutely love to have fresh fruit and veggies as part of our snacks and meals for vacations, especially since we do have a few meals out that aren't the healthiest (hey, we're on vacation right?! lol!) If you haven't checked out my other Vacation Meals Ideas video,, I'll link it here! It has other ideas too! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-H1ECmH24jvo.htmlsi=6uRB66jgiRUOIn35
I grew up in Healdsburg/Santa Rosa and these places you visited are my old stomping grounds! So fun to watch your family and I so appreciate the recipes and meal ideas!
Oh my gosh, it's seriously so gorgeous in that area, it would be so hard to leave haha! Are there any recommendations (restaurants, wineries, things to see) for next time??
@@OurCrowsNest5 it's been so long but I know if you drive Westside Rd (Healdsburg) there are tons of wineries along that road and it's a beautiful drive in the spring/fall! I lived on that road as a kid, such a great area.
I so enjoyed this video and seeing the loving care and interaction between you and your family. The food you fixed looked Delicious and healthy as well. The beautiful areas you visited I'm very familiar with and it actually got me a bit homesick. I grew up in the bay area and have traveled to all if those spots. (Even rafted down the Russian River ending up ing Guernville !) It is so important for your children to experience Mother nature like that and enjoy Mom's good cooked and prepared with love!!! Alicia, you are a wonderful Mother, honey. You really are💟Hopefully you guys can go on another one or two this summer🐦
Oh Joanne you are the BEST! Thank you so much for this comment! Oh the Russian River is so gorgeous and there were so many families out floating when we drove by! I hope that you're able to get back to the bay area one day, we just can't seem to want to vacation anywhere else, we're in love with the weather and beautiful surroundings! Thank you so much for always being here! 💓
Totally agree that being in nature just revitalises. I am totally loving the enchiladas and how easy that is, I've never tasted them so I will copy your recipe and try it. I done the same when I helped raised my nephew - mostly brought out own, or prepped our food not eating out. It works better too because you are not hungry if you dont like the choices, and I hate feeling hungry and my nephew loved getting great stuff he knew he likes, but we could buy ice creams and stuff. thanks for the lovely vlog I enjoyed seeing the redwoods as I am in scotland with different kinds of scenery
The enchiladas are super filling, creamy, and delicious, I really hope you like them! And you're so right about prepping food! Oh Scotland! Oh, I bet it's absolutely stunning where you are. Hubby and I are hoping to go over there in 3 years for our 20 year anniversary! Thank you so much for being here!
Thanks we always take food. One night dads in charge grilling, then we go to Walmart and buy frozen pizzas so mom can get a break to.pre made breakfast, pizza lunch ables homemade, beef sticks cut up with cheese and crackers homemade the fruits and vegetables last longer Grr haven’t quite figured the trick out.
Oh my goodness Brenda, fantastic ideas! I'm going to have to borrow your grilling ideas for next year! Tri-tip with baked potatoes and veg sounds like such an easy dinner! Thank you so much Brenda, and thank you for always being here, I so appreciate it! 💓
Your welcome! I think we over think vacations. Memories is what’s important. It’s easier , cheaper and nicer to just eat chickens nuggets, hot dogs etc wherever we stay and enjoy real family time with games
That is such a great thought, didn't even consider that! I wonder if they would just cut out more wood from around the hole area. But now I got to thinking, what happens if that tree starts to fall over one day, yikes!
