My kids love spending time with their Papa and Grandma and they have the best memories while spending time with them (who doesn’t! I have great memories of growing up and spending time with my Grandpa and Grandma!)

With Father’s Day just around the corner, the kids wanted to share their favorite things to do with their Papa and I wanted to share the perfect Father’s day gift for Papa (or daddy!) with the
to keep in touch!

Buggy and Buddy’s favorite things to do with Papa:

Eat watermelon

(that seems to be a yearly favorite with the kids and watermelon equates to Papa every time)…

Drive Papa’s boat and go fishing…

Play games…

And garden!

(I swear Buggy spends time with them too! A lot of my pictures are on another computer, but I swear, there are fabulous memories with Buggy and Papa too! Not just Buddy!)

The kids have great memories and we continue to make memories, but sometimes life gets crazy and hectic. Things happen and although we live close, we can’t always see them and share memories as often as we would like. Hence modern technology.

Hubby and I are constantly snapping pictures on our cell phones to share with family and updating social media to update family.

Keeping in touch, no matter how near or how far, is important to keep the memories alive whether it is for the kids or for the adults which is why we bought Papa a new smart phone for Father’s Day.

The phone we picked out for him was the same smart phone that hubby has (and really likes).

The phone itself cost less than $100 and the monthly payment is unbelievably low!

Walmart Family Mobile has the
so we can keep in touch with Papa without breaking the bank, and when you add a line to an existing account, it’s even cheaper!

Since hubby already has a
, we decided we would add Papa’s phone to hubby’s account – and it wasn’t any more work than activating a single phone on its own account.

We purchased the phone in store at our local Walmart and I have to say, I was impressed.

When we got to the store, we immediately (out of habit) walked to the electronic section because that is typically where you find the mobile phones, right?

Wrong.

This particular Walmart store had its own mobile center in the front of the store near customer service!

I had never seen that before, but actually really liked that (plus it’s convenient if you have to run in for an issue).

We were able to purchase the phone, the starter kit, and a 2 year warranty on the phone right there in the mobile center.

When we got home, we were able to activate the phone, add it to hubby’s account, and transfer phone numbers!

You can start a new account by clicking “activate” or you can add a line by signing into your already existing account and “add a line”.

We couldn’t transfer the phone number via the website like we hoped, but a phone call to customer service did the trick!

Now we can keep in touch with Papa with
no matter where he is or what he is doing, and we all save money on our cell phone bill!

Who in your life could benefit from the Walmart Family Mobile plan?
