My wife and I have not bought a new car for about five years now. We have been lucky. We bought my current car in 2008 before the birth of our first son. We then bought our van in 2011 and it has served us well. It just hit 100,000 miles today, however, so I am thinking we might need to be buying a new car in the next year or so.
Last week the family went to Medieval Times in downtown Dallas. We frequent this place as a family so it has become a great way to celebrate victories we share at home. In this case, we were celebrating our two boys’ first 6 weeks of school, and good grades on their report card. This 2 hour experience is a unique, family-friendly experience, for all ages and genders. They have great food, music, drama, and sportsmanship. Being someone who is very money conscious, I would say that this is not a budget-friendly outing. However, if you only go on special occasions, and take advantage of their specials, it can be affordable for families living in DFW. They are always running specials that are promoted on their website. One of my favorite perks of this outing, is that it includes free parking. That is rare in downtown Dallas.
Our kids love to dress up as knights, so we bought them costumes years ago. This is a great place to let your kids wear their knight costumes because the atmosphere is very imaginary. The first thing they do after taking your tickets, is send you through a “king/queen” entry. They put a colored crown on your head, and ask you if you want to take a picture with your party, and the MT king (actor).
