  • Crazy Horse

    South Dakota is steeped in history, it’s one of the main reasons I chose to take the kids here for MEA break. After visiting Mount Rushmore  we headed over to Crazy Horse.

Never Slip Again with NANOspikes

NANOspikes in Use

As many of you know we live in Minnesota. Winters can be harsh here, especially with ice storms. Or even just dramatic temps that are warm enough during the day to melt the snow but then drop overnight and freeze the melted snow making for icy sidewalks in the morning. Countless times I have nearly slipped or done the waving hand trying to regain my balance on the way to my car in the morning. Or slipped and fell in the parking lot while out trying to do a little shopping. And it hurts to fall ...

An Amish Year

An Amish Year by Beth Wiseman

An Amish Year was the first time I've ever read a novel by Beth Wiseman so I was surprised to find out it's not one story but four stories! I would consider it to be 4 short stories about different characters. I really liked this format because as a single mom it can be hard to read a whole 300+ page novel from start to finish before I forget what the beginning was about.  But when each story is roughly 100 pages, give or take, I can read the story, engage with the story and have a complete ...

Keep Warm with Liam & Isla

Fleece Mittens

Living in Minnesota can present challenges when trying to keep our kids warm. Our weather can be dramatic. For several weeks this winter we were below zero. It was nearly a 2 week stretch! But now we are finally in the 20s and 30s during the days. Kids are taking advantage of the nicer temperatures and spending as much time as parents will let them play outside. So now the challenge is how do we keep their little fingers and hands warm so they can play outside comfortably? Liam & Isla has a ...
