We found a huge box of books in the garage that hadn't gotten unpacked yet, so it's basically like Christmas over here. Speaking of Christmas, "Rambo" over there is getting the BESt gift in 101 days... I love how even the boys are so sucked into Angelina Ballerina...it must be Johnny's riveting voices.
Cleaning and organizing the garage meant finally unpacking the last few boxes and recreating a 5.5 year old photo.
Well...it's almost fall. Like, we've got maybe two more weeks. Perhaps I'm jumping the gun a bit with decorating early, but I do that reeeeeally well. Just sharing a few things I've done around here to make our space feel a bit more festive. In a sauce pan, add the following ingredients, cover with water, [...]
Tonight we celebrated Crosby! I couldn't think of a better way to ring in his first year than this: thirty of our closest friends and family, trampolining, cupcake smashing, salamander catching, zip-lining in front of a gorgeous sunset back drop. I still can't believe we live here! Costco pizza for the win. This was the [...]
Last week I went back to blonde. We were in the car and I tossed my tresses it into a high ponytail and Dixie goes, “Wow, mom. You look like a palomino.” I’m SO pleased that my city girl is really starting to embrace country living, meanwhile she did just compare me to a horse. [...]
This morning the fridge broke, but it’s cool cause the new pretty one comes on Friday. Johnny is working in Breckenridge and just scored a super expensive wish list item of mine BIG TIME near a dumpster (rich people throw the best stuff away...stay tuned). Anyway, I’m still annoyed that he’s there without me. He [...]
When your school mascot is Thor, you know it's gonna be a good year! This girl was so excited about school, until we started walking towards her teacher. Change is hard, little girl, but you got this! The school we choiced into had a full 3rd grade roster, so we enrolled Hudson in our zoned [...]
Hudson recently asked to be baptized and publicly declare his decision to follow Christ! I’m SO glad both sets of grandparents could be apart of such a special moment! And it wasn't just Hudson, my sweet nephew Levi also made the plunge! (See what I did there?) Hudson, your joy speaks louder than you do...and [...]
For the first time in our 11 years of parenting, I think we may need to babyproof! Little Cros-baby is a lotta bit more adventurous than his four bigger siblings. Unrelated: a few months back, Dixie asked what was going to happen to him when he grows up because "Crosby is a baby name."
Woke up this morning and decided that the weather was just TOO beautiful not to take full advantage of. When the kids were sitting at the breakfast table, I announced "Get dressed. Let's go to the zoo!" We packed lunches, loaded up the car and headed on our adventure. Now, they've been to the zoo [...]
