One month ago we were excited to finally make a decision about moving to another city. It was the city that housed our dearest friends who once were our neighbors. We wanted to be neighbors again. The momma of that family is a sister to me and she’s a teacher too. You know what that means? Forced joint family fun all summer long! We would spend time together nearly every day, sometimes hours, ...
THE BLOG
fall | pumpkin bread with brown sugar sauce
I love September even though it's crazy busy. September brings school and new schedules. It makes me enjoy every last drop of the weekend once it rolls around. There is something about the sapphire sky and the leaves in all their autumn glory that brings such a peace to my heart.

SUMMER BUCKET LIST // 2014
This year’s bucket list was compiled in March when it was seriously like -60 wind chill. Okay, so it probably wasn't that in March but we did hit that low over the winter. It was brutal. BRUTAL.

OUR MADELINE ISLAND VACATION
I went to Madeline Island when I was little and I still remember riding the ferry over and the captain letting me look in the wheel house. I remember my parents telling me and my sister that the water was too cold to swim in but we did get to feed the ducks. We fed them Cheetos, actually, and one of the ducks bit my sister’s finger. It’s funny the things we remember from our ...
SUMMER BUCKET LIST // BUILD A KID BIKE WASH
Oh, Minnesota...thank you for finally gracing us with summer. This past weekend we decided we were going to build our kid wash/bike wash. We made a family trip to Home Depot and grabbed all the PVC pipe and fittings plus some purple cement-like stuff that apparently seals it all together. We headed home and the boys went down for the night. I went to work out and by the time I got back, Brandon ...
