Gone Offline

If you sent me an email last week, this was the response you received:

For the most part, I stuck to it, and it felt really good. It’s nice to have such easy access to the entire world, but it’s also nice to put the iPhone down every once in awhile and focus solely on family time.

We started the week by heading to our yearly get away in Waupaca with my in-laws. It’s the kind of spot where the most dressed up you get is to throw a coverup on for our nightly walks to the ice cream shop. The kids spent more time in the water than out of it, and everyone had a great time.

After returning home, we had less than 24 hours to prepare to host a family reunion for my side of the family. I’m fortunate to be part of a family who enjoys hanging out together, and I’m already looking forward to next year. We capped off the week with dinner outside with a lovely sunset as our lighting.

I hope you’re getting a chance to enjoy your family this summer too!

  • I was clearing out old photos and realized I never posted these pictures! Clearly, they are from at least a week ago, since there’s still snow on the ground (that’s a little MN humor, since our winter lasted for approximately forever this year!). Beginning soon, my pics will include my new updated hair. I’m back… [Continue Reading]

  • I love to use mason jars in all kinds of ways. We drink out of them. I use them as vases. They’re an easy vessel for candles. And what’s cuter than a little token of friendship, planted in a mason jar and tied up with a burlap strip? Not much, I tell ya. In honor… [Continue Reading]

  • I’m trying to think of something, anything, other than to complain about the crazy weather we’ve been having around here. But it’s sorta hard to do. One minute it’s beautiful and sunny, the next moment it’s gloomy and drizzling, and the next? I’m practically blown away from insane wind gusts. But it’s all good. Cuz… [Continue Reading]
