Things to Do in New Orleans (for cheap!)

City Park
   

I recently was able to tag along on my husband’s work conference trip to New Orleans.  I hadn’t been to New Orleans since I was a little girl and the only parts of that trip I remember are the beignets and feeding alligators on a swamp tour.  Going back to NOLA as an adult was great and I would go back again in a heartbeat.

Most of the trip I was by myself since Alex was at his conference so I tried to keep myself entertained without spending a ton of money.  Mission accomplished!  Here are some of my recommendations for things to do in New Orleans for very little money;

Summer is my absolute favorite time of the year. I don’t want it to pass me by without doing a number of, what I consider, essential summer must-dos. This year I sat down with my family and created a summer bucket list. Below you’ll be able to see the summer bucket list we created as well as print out a blank version for yourself to use! I’ve included some tips to help you get started.

Going through my closet always makes me feel a little guilty. I have all these clothes that I don’t wear and/or don’t like. It’s time to get rid of them! By having a capsule wardrobe I will have easier choices to make when getting dressed in the morning and I will make fewer spontaneous purchases of clothes I can’t make multiple outfits out of. Going forward I will make more of an effort to buy less clothes than I am getting rid of.

Kids grow so fast! Every season I have to take inventory of my children’s clothing to see what fits and what we need to buy. I’ve created a kids’ clothing checklist to help me determine what I will need to purchase for the upcoming season. I print out this spring/summer clothing checklist for each of my children. Read below to understand my process and how you too can easily determine your child’s clothing needs for the spring and summer seasons.
