There is something about eating out in the open air that we just love. And the fact that the girls can eat a little, go and play, come back and eat some more, and dash off again...well they just think that's the best thing since sliced bread!
We have used coolers in the past, but honestly, I get tired of lugging that big, bulky thing around. This year, I decided to purchase the Market Thermal Tote from Thirty-One Gifts, AND IT IS AWESOME! I got it in the Circle Spirals Pattern and it is so huge, and it's insulated, so it keeps all of my stuff cold, (or warm depending on what I'm toting around).
The reason I got the large Market Tote is because I like to be able to carry lots of stuff inside, because not only will I be using this for family picnics, but also for carrying food to my house church, carry-ins at the pool this summer, and family get togethers. And it seriously holds A LOT OF STUFF!
But if you are looking for something a little smaller, the Picnic Thermal Tote would be perfect.
And lucky for you, I AM GIVING ONE AWAY! Thanks so much to my friend Mary, who is a Thirty-One Consultant, for this fabulous Giveaway! It's the Picnic Thermal Tote in the Impressionist Dot pattern, (with Lunch embroidered on the front), and a cute little Wristlet Key Fob in the Chains Ahoy pattern. A $39 Value!

Our favorite picnic spot is about 15 minutes from our house at Pinchot Park.. It has a lake to swim in as well as a camping area and tons of playground equipment for the kids.
