    You do not have to explain spending money on your vacation or any other time. You and Dusty earn you money, you get to decide what to do with it. And taking a memorable vacation with your children is a great way to spend it. No matter what it cost, that's your business. We all know that you do not waste money and you're careful about spending. I am very happy that you all get to go on your vacation and make memories and have fun together. You deserve it! Lots of love to you and your family!

    I never ever ever ever do this, but………
    I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere admiration for your UA-cam channel and the incredible content you create. Your videos have been a source of inspiration and joy in my life, and I believe you are a truly wonderful human being.
    I was disheartened to hear that some viewers had hurt your feelings a few months ago, causing you to question whether you should continue posting on UA-cam. It's unfortunate that negativity can find its way into the online world, but please remember that for every critic, there are countless supporters like me who value your work immensely.
    Your dedication, frugality tips, and your warm personality have made a positive impact on many lives, including mine. I want to encourage you to ignore the haters and continue sharing your valuable content with the world. Your presence on UA-cam is a bright light in the online community, and I genuinely believe that your authenticity and kindness will always shine through.
    Please don't let a few negative comments overshadow the love and support that your true fans have for you. Your videos make a difference, and you are appreciated more than you may know. Keep being the amazing person you are and sharing your wisdom with us.
    Thank you for being you, Southern Frugal Momma. Your channel means a lot to so many of us, and we're here to stand by you through thick and thin.

Also, you and your husband have raised children who are appreciative of everything you do and they have such respect for you and your husband. All of you have such fun and care about each other. You are a great family! I love the way all of you enjoy and appreciate the beauty of America. If only more Americans would do that.
    Blessings to all of you and God bless America !

    You and your family are so genuine and loving. Please know you never need to explain where or when you spend money. I like you mentioned with research there are a ton of free things to do. My sister and I always plan trips with tons of free. I have 4 kids and my husband and I are both military so that makes a huge help. You are so sweet and inspirational and positive. Please ignore the mean people they aren't happy with themselves. ❤from middle Tennessee

    A cheat for potatoes regardless of how you bake / cook them is to microwave them first then throw them in your crock pot/ instapot / oven / or open fire. Absorbs the flavors of everything else. I m/w them at 5 to 8 minutes til soft then finish cooking while cooking the rest of the food.... Perfect every time.

    We're doing a road trip for my kids' spring break in 2024. Going to go through Utah and visit several National Parks as well as some stops in the Navajo Nation and a State Park.
    For the Nathinal Parks, we're using the Every Kid Outdoors pass, free to any 4th grader, including homeschooling or free-schoolers 10- years of age. You all just need to be in the same car.
    We visited the Grand Canyon when our oldest was in 4th grade.
    I really want to bring my kids and family to Yellowstone. I had the amazing opportunity of being there 16 years ago for my 30th birthday. Hands down, one of my favorite National Parks.
    Watching this series has gotten me so excited about our upcoming trip. Enjoy your vacation!!

    I have a extremely budget friendly simple dinner for you. We call it "Slop In A Bowl". What you'll need is 1 pound of ground meat ( chicken, beef, pork, turkey), one half of a medium onion, 1 family size can of Spaghettios ( Store brand is fine ) 1 family size can of pork and beans or baked beans, single wrap cheese or any cheese you have to melt on top ( optional ). Salt, pepper, garlic powder to taste.
    Brown the ground meat with the chopped up onion and salt, pepper and garlic powder. Add the Spaghettios and the beans. Heat through until its hot. Melt cheese on top if you like. This makes a big batch. If you can't get family sized Spaghettios and/ or ɓeans 2 regular cans will work.
