We recently headed to Lincoln Nebraska and I floored at how much I loved this fantastic little city! You never realize how many amazing cities there are until you start exploring a little further. You also never realize how many great hotels there are until you do a little exploring with that as well. While in Lincoln we decided to stay at The Holiday Inn Lincoln-Downtown. Not only was this a great hotel, but it was within walking distance of everything. It was only a short walk to great restaurants, shops, and a movie theater.

This post was created as part of the Trekaroo Influencer Network on behalf of Deer Valley Ski Resort. As always my opinions are my own.

I have lived in Utah all my life and somehow I have never been skiing! I know it’s crazy. We have some fantastic ski resorts, like the Deer Valley Resort, that have some of the best ski slopes around. We are planning on going out of the country this coming spring, so I really want to cross skiing off my bucket list before we leave. Unfortunately it can be overwhelming trying new things and skiing is no exception.

But first, a little background info.

I know it might seem silly, but when a company gets it right and appreciates me as a customer I feel they’ve earned my dollars. So when I hit the road I always use Maverik Gas Stations.

When searching for a great hotel I would always recommend digging further than just the first page of Expedia. This should always be a rule when traveling with kids as well. When planning a family vacation run-of-the-mill just won’t do. You want a hotel that brings something more than just comfortable beds. Even when it comes to a simpler destination like Denver Colorado, you’d be amazed what you might come across if you do a little more research. Because I did a little more hotel research for our recent Denver trip I came across a gold mine! I found the Best Western Denver Southwest!

We recently went on a family adventure to Colorado, when we do family travel we REALLY do family travel! On this trip we had an aunt, grandparents, kids and my husband and I. Logistically this can be difficult, normally we would have to pile into two different cars which can take away from the fun of traveling together as a family, but we were able to try out the new 2016 Outlander which seats seven!
