Here are a few pictures from our trip to the Coast. We had a nice time visiting family and friends.  It was wonderful to not have to worry about anything for a week! 

This is the laundry detergent that I made before we left. I made my own a few years ago, but didn't like it, but this is a new recipe and so far it has been fabulous. It cost me $15 to make and you only use one tablespoon per load. This jar should last close to nine months. Here is the recipe:

1 box of Borax

1 box of Arm and Hammer washing soda

2 jars (small containers) of powdered oxyclean ( I used the SUN brand) 

2 small boxes of arm and hammer baking soda

3 bars of grated fels naptha soap (pink zote soap from Home depot works well too)

You should able to find all of this at Walmart. 

Mix it all together really well! My laundry room smells so fresh just from the detergent! I still use fabric softener just because I like our clothes to be extra soft.
