We recently took a day trip to Ocean City, NJ and had a great time! A full look at our day can be watched here on the Money & Momming YouTube Channel. (Be sure to subscribe!)

Days leading up to the trip I made a list and checked it over and over to ensure we had everything we needed to get through the day with a teenager, two tweens, and a toddler.
