It’s officially summer! The kids are out of school. Our bags are packed, and my swagger wagon is gassed up and ready to hit the road. My kiddos and I are planning on spending most of these long summer days at our family beach house having lots of fun in the sun. That’s one of the best parts of being a blogger, you can just take your “office” with you. Even though we will be having a blast splashing in the ocean and building sandcastles, we will be missing our main man, their Daddy. My hubby will be working hard during the weekdays and joining us at the beach on the weekends. To be honest, I’m feeling pretty guilty for leaving him behind (not that guilty because I’m still totally going), but I thought since he will be working so hard during the week and traveling so much to see us on the weekends, I’ll help him out and make sure his old car is ready to be beach bound and that he’s all stocked up while we are away.

When I took the keys from him this morning, I was shocked, to say the least. Shocked! Just look at the backseat of his car. It’s just so… so clean! Not a broken toy or half eaten snack in sight. How is this even possible? At this point, I thought all of our possessions had crumbs from our kids. Simply amazing!Dad's carEnough of this distraction, I need to get this man’s car ready to a weekend beach goer! Since his car has A LOT of miles, it needs some extra care so his car requires Pennzoil High Mileage Oil because it helps to reduce leaks in higher mileage engines. And we need that engine running clean and going strong for a long time. Even better, right now Walmart has a Rollback on Pennzoil oil changes for high mileage cars. Plus Pennzoil also offers a free warranty that covers 15 engine parts. Helping out my honey and saving money– I call that multitasking!

Once I dropped off his car at the Walmart Automotive Care Center, it was time to shop while I waited, and I knew right away what aisle I needed to hit first. I could not leave my man alone day after day without proper sustenance.

Just to be on the safe side, I’ll just buy this entire freezer. That should last him a few days, right? When I was done shopping, my hubby’s car was ready to go and so was I. But not before I loaded up my bags and bags of frozen pizzas (and sunblock because it’s going to be a long summer!)  Time to hand over his car and hit the road!

So these beach bums are off to the ocean and will be waiting patiently until their Daddy arrives this weekend
