Summer Story

Summer Story

I really enjoy summer.  However, the tension for me grows as our family grows (both in age and quantity).  I love going out and having adventures with the kiddos, with Greg, with friends or just flying solo. Here's the thing.  I have four young kiddos who aren't great at helping out around the house.  Shocking, I know.  They

Lakefront Festival of the Arts

I've been thinking for awhile about adding a feature to the blog called Be Local.  It will be a good reason for me to get out and venture off the ol' beaten path of grocery store, library & Target.  Let's discover & explore some spots, food, events and people together, shall we?

Summer At Last.

The kiddos are out of school and this is our first official week of summer. So far, we've cleaned out the garage, gone to the zoo, had a water fight, dug a flower bed, bought a bike, and have successfully packed away their winter clothes into their respective rubbermaid containers.  Whew. It's pretty cool to look back on
