{we are} storytellers: {staycation blogshop week 2}

postcard by Michelle (mimsmom)

Have you considered letting your friends and family know you will not be available during your staycation? You'd notify them if you were traveling away, so why not notify them that you are not to be disturbed while on your staycation. You can tell them that you will still be home, just not available due to family bonding time. You might even inspire them to plan their own staycations!

Invite by {storyteller} Peppermint

Peppermint says "I found this idea to Make Your Own Waterpark and I realized that THIS is something that we would TOTALLY do as a family. Because honestly we already spend a lot of time doing things on our own - just the three of us - so our idea of a "vacation" would be to spend time with all the people we don't normally get to see!

So I made these postcard invites for our "Make Your Own Waterpark" day in our own backyard"
