I don’t know about you guys, but my kids are crazy over mud. Your kids, too? When I heard about the Kids Obstacle Challenge that’s coming to Issaquah, I couldn’t help but instantly want to go. This is the perfect thing for kids in this area! It’s outside, it’s healthy, […]
Summer truths. What are they? I don’t know exactly, but I made a list on my phone the other night while I was cooking dinner and I thought I’d share. Since becoming a mom 8 1/2 years ago, each summer has had it’s very own flow. This summer, it’s our […]
Just yesterday, I was standing on our back deck with a friend, and we were both commenting on how fast the kids are growing and how they’re all due for larger clothes and shoes. Back to school shopping is right around the corner! Today I’m sharing with you a sale […]

Yesterday I sat down over coffee with a group of women with school-aged kids. The group is called MomsNext, which basically means it’s the next step up from MOPS. I’d been asked to speak about getting outside with our families and so I started by sharing my own personal […]
On my phone there’s a list of books I’ve read this year (because I’d totally forget) and books I want to read. Both lists are ever growing and today I’m happy (and a little nervous) to be sharing! Why nervous, you ask? Well, because book choices can be a kinda-sorta personal thing. […]
