I just had the BEST weekend. I cooked, I baked, I washed the sheets on every bed in the house, I planted my garlic and cut down my hydrangeas and peonies, I grocery shopped and menu planned for the upcoming week, I wrote blog posts (yes plural!), I vacuumed up the dog hair (a necessary […] Read more…
Weekend Snaps | Kid Swap Edition
Another weekend is almost in the books and we spent ours swapping kids. Come again? It was fall break in school and Joe was fortunate to be asked by a good friend of his to accompany his family to Lake of the Woods, which is in the far northwest corner of Minnesota – a good […] Read more…
Weekend Snaps | Summer in October?
I’d like one more Sunday tacked on to the weekend. (Pretty please?) Fine.

High Five For Friday!
It’s been a long while since I’ve written a Friday post, but I’m feeling inclined this morning to get a head start on the weekend. We don’t have big plans – just a little babysitting of our niece, Miss Morgan, tomorrow (yay!) and then catching up on life, otherwise known as groceries, laundry, fall garden […] Read more…
