I’ve been trying to convince myself that my morning coffee was enough to rejuvenate me and keep mom going. Even though I crash at about 3:00 p.m. and I try it again the next morning. But I got a great rejuvenator from our mini-vacation this weekend.

I took the kids to Mt. San Jacinto near Palm Springs. The tram ride to the top was only $20 for adults (cheaper for kids). The weather was great; sunny, 42 degrees and plenty of beautiful white snow. We spent the day hiking, had a snowball fight, and a sled race. It was a blast! I woke up the next day and re-dedicated myself to “Magnificent Mom” and more “mini-rejuvenation” vacations.

Any suggestions for mini-rejuvenation vacations?
