Today I’m gearing up for Nacho Night. More on that in a separate blog. I had some boxes of Hershey’s Triple Chocolate Brownie mix that have been calling to me. Judge me if you must but if you’ve not tried this mix, found at Sam’s Club, you are missing out. They’re super easy and everyContinue reading “Sweet Saturday: Salted Carmel Pretzel Brownies”

Photo Friday: Will’s Spooktacular Costume Birthday Party
A few weeks ago we had Will’s VERY belated birthday party. His birthday is always the first week of school, meaning there’s really not enough time to invite any of his classmates besides the ones we already had addresses or parents’ phone numbers. As we got closer and closer to Halloween, we all settled onContinue reading “Photo Friday: Will’s Spooktacular Costume Birthday Party”
Happy (Second) Birthday/Halloween!!!
Halloween is a big holiday in our household- it’s Clara and Kate’s birthday. Today they turn two. I sound like a broken record every single birthday for the kids but, man, how time flies! It seems like just yesterday that this was happening! Or this: And now, here we are: Two Two-Year-Olds. Double, Double Trouble.Continue reading “Happy (Second) Birthday/Halloween!!!”
Spooky Saturday
We love Halloween in our family….and not just because Clara and Kate’s birthday is on October 31st. Although it does make for an easy party theme. We like to decorate the house with lots of spooky stuff. We didn’t go all out this year because we’ve been so busy lately but here’s a few highlightsContinue reading “Spooky Saturday”
Makita Training and Pheasant Hunting in Utah
I was fortunate enough to be invited to attend a training and pheasant hunt in Utah with Makita this weekend. It was a great time and I got to learn a ton about the Makita tools we carry. I’m still constantly amazed that they have soooo many battery operated tools available. A few of theContinue reading “Makita Training and Pheasant Hunting in Utah”
Photo Friday: Puddle Jumping
We were happy to be able to take all four kiddos to Pioneer Reunion (Clay County’s big yearly festivities). There’s multiple parades and a great rodeo as well. Boot fever struck our house as we got ready to head out there and realized only one of the twins would have a pair of boots. HeavenContinue reading “Photo Friday: Puddle Jumping”
Photo Friday: Mom’s 60th
My sweet Momma is 60 today! I know, I know…she totally doesn’t look (or act) that old. Last Saturday night we managed to pull off a major surprise Fiesta for her. I’m still not quite sure how we did it without someone spoiling the surprise but somehow we did…and it was GREAT! Here’s a fewContinue reading “Photo Friday: Mom’s 60th”
Photo Friday: Jeep it Up
Last weekend Garen got some much-needed away time with his jeep. I think basically a bunch of cool jeep people got together to drive their toys up and down hills and valleys and in and out of lots of mud and water…in case you couldn’t tell. Nothing like playing in the mud! I’m pretty sureContinue reading “Photo Friday: Jeep it Up”
Photo Friday: New England Favs
Here are a few from our girls’ trip to New England- Newport, Boston, and Salem. There’s MUCH more content to come, including our itinerary, but these are some of my favorites, not just because of the quality but because of the memories. House of Seven Gables…can I be honest and say I don’t remember theContinue reading “Photo Friday: New England Favs”
Celebrating Dad
As I started to write this in preparation for posting on Father’s Day, I saw this…. Looking at this screenshot, you might not even know what struck me as important. Share your story here… As I sat for a minute, pondering, I wondered how I’d never looked at that phraseContinue reading “Celebrating Dad”
