Earlier in October, I signed the paperwork to be a LuLaRoe Fashion Consultant, which I announced in this blog post. Since then, I have been patiently (sort of) waiting to get my official “onboarding” phone call, expected about 8 weeks or so after that initial paperwork was submitted. I also immediately began the process of […] Read more…
Weekend Snaps | Ready To Run + Family Time
Happy Sunday night, friends! I’m sitting in our family room, gas fireplace turned on, soaking in the last few hours of the weekend. Sigh. Most of my photos this weekend are from Saturday, when my sister came over and the two of us ran the “Boofalo Halloween Fun Run” 5k race in town. Good times […] Read more…
Date Weekend
Hey friends, It’s 44 degrees and raining out right now. Rather than commiserate about the weather (as I know this is just the beginning …), I’ll highlight a few of my favorite photos from my “date weekend” with Teacher Man. Both Joe and Teacher Man were off from school Thursday and Friday last week. Joe […] Read more…
The Fight for Animal Agriculture | Who Wins?

Weekend Snaps | The Last of the Garden Color
Let’s be real here. It’s October 16 in Minnesota and while winter is “technically” a couple of months away, I think we all know November is creeping ever closer and it’s about time to put the gardens to bed. What’s amazing about this fall, however, is how my perennials and shrubs – and heck, even […] Read more…
Weekend Snaps + LuLaRoe News
Happy Sunday, friends! My boys and I had a great couple of days. Yesterday, we hopped in our car to find some fall colors (a bit elusive with the cloudy skies and rain) and grab lunch at this out-of-the-way (see also hole-in-the-wall) restaurant. The burgers (and chicken strips, of course) and tots were absolutely fantastic […] Read more…
