On occasions we are moved by the words we hear or the words we read. And we have decided to share those thoughts with you. Katie is sharing our first #ThoughfulThursday post with you. Warning, this is not going to be one of those fun adventure posts that I typically write. Today’s blog is […]
Sometimes in the middle of all the chaos and kids you need an adult weekend getaway. Last summer that is exactly what Aaron and I needed. We realized we had an available weekend and I began to research our best opportunities like I always do. So on the spur of the moment Thursday evening, we […]
Aaron and I hadn’t been dating too long and we were looking for something to do on a Saturday with Sam. Years ago I had taken Hunter and Kenzie on a train ride down in Jackson. They were probably 5 and 7ish at the time. I remember as a warm hour long rambling train ride […]
You know it’s going to be a good day when you roll over in bed and ask your husband to take a hike with you and the kids that morning before he goes to work, and his response is “yes!” So 30 minutes later, the 6 of us (Yukon came too) were headed towards Hawn […]

Kimmswick is offering a Solar Eclipse Experience Kimmswick (KEEP) – Memorabilia will be available and the local merchants will be open and providing photo opportunities. A Village Eclipse in Caledonia will […]
Occasionally we find time to adult things. And it just so happens this summer that Aaron and I found time one lovely Saturday afternoon to have an adult “Groupon” Date. I am calling it such because I had purchased some Groupons earlier in the spring and we decided to use them on this Saturday afternoon. […]
Katie posted her picture this morning of trying to get the whole family including the dog into one selfie shot. Easier said than done. We are real people not trying to glam things up when we share here on the blog. If we were hosting a fashion blog, we would be showcasing perfect hair and […]
