Here’s part 1 of our family tent camping adventures this Summer. This blog post focuses on the time we spent at the campground/Suttle Lake before venturing off to the Metolius River before heading home. We chose Suttle Lake near Central Oregon based on great reviews from friends who visit the same campsite annually. It did not […]

This is the second year in a row that when my mom was visiting from Texas we got incredible weather at the coast IN FEBRUARY. It was a fun little day trip with just the boys, myself and my mom. I even got a chance to drone a bit! Of course it was MY kid […]

It was gorgeous full sun warm weather when I took the boys up to Plumper Pumpkin to pick out a pumpkin (of course Brady chose the LARGEST one he could barely pick up). We met some friends up there and ventured around for a bit. We snacked on freshly made pumpkin cinnamon donuts and cider. […]

Well, that went fast. B is almost 6 years old and we’ve arrived at his first day of Kindergarten!  Can I be honest? I  did NOT cry at Kindergarten drop off. Or in the parking lot. Or on the way home. I keep questioning if that’s bad?  But you  know what? It’s NOT.  I couldn’t […]

So, it’s been a while since I last blogged… over a year to be exact. BUT in that last year I’ve had another baby and we made it a whole year! Having two kids is no joke! Trying to work from home with two small kiddos can be challenging. We’ve done a lot of adventuring […]

Some of my favorite moments with Brady are when I sit down and intentionally play with him. Here he’s playing Lincoln logs and being his silly imaginative self (back in January 2017). What a special sweet boy he is.
