We had a long anticipated spring break last week, and it was just a good break. We left on Easter afternoon to beat the storms that were coming thru our area on Monday. There was really no traffic on the way to Branson and it was our first time bringing the camper long distance. Monday we set up camp and … Read More
16 YEARS.
As of today, Brandon and I have been married for 16 years. Ya’ll. It seems like yesterday at times. There is no one I’d rather do life with than Brandon. He’s the best. We talk often about how marriage isn’t always 50/50. Some days it may be 25/75. Depending on how the day has gone for the other. It is … Read More
FRIDAY FAVORITES.
Happy Friday! I’m linking up with Andrea and Erika to share some favorites. Up first, Ellie getting all dressed up for her 8th grade grad dance was a favorite. Our district doesn’t do a ceremony, but instead a semi formal dance. She had a date, and I think they had a great time… Running errands with Av, also a favorite when the … Read More

Happy Friday! Whew….this week has been a mess. Nothing awful just many pivots in our usual routines because of the ice storm.

Up first, this girl would tell you she’s waited her whole life … Read More
CHRISTMAS BREAK 2022 AND ICE.
Happy Friday! We are full on back in the swing of routines around here and a bit sad about it. We love Christmas break so much and this one was no different. If you don’t know, Brandon works for SIU and goes to school there (he’s graduating in May) as well, so the downtime in between semesters is the best … Read More
FRIDAY FAVORITES. SPRING BREAK EDITION.
Happy Friday! I’m linking up with Andrea and Erika today to share some favorites from our spring break. We had a perfect mix of a mini trip and home time too. We have done it both ways in the past for spring break: trips vs. stay home. And honestly, the girls I think prefer a mix of both. We found out Charlie … Read More

WELCOME HOME BRUNO.
Happy Friday from our crew! It seems like yesterday I posted this… We had been talking about getting Bond a friend for a few months now (he is still such a great dog, but would like some company we thought) So on Thursday morning, I dropped the girls off for school and Brandon and I drove to pickup this sweet … Read More

On her Birthday she requested dinner out and … Read More
