Hello

Cole flying planes with Pa Pa

arrow

Personal

When this boy and his Pa Pa play they spend hours having a blast creating some fond memories. My Dad bought Cole some wooden planes for the Holidays last year and we found the perfect warm windy day to fly them. The simplicity of a toy holds no boundaries to the amount of fun a child can have. 

Our Elf on the Shelf is back 2016

Personal

Each winter a magical elf named Pinky makes an appearance and causes mischief in our home. This year was the first time we noticed her more than years past. This winter she was up to no good. Swinging from the lights in the dinning room, unrolling toilet paper in our bathrooms, dumping out cotton balls, and starting a snow ball fight with Cole.

Our Thanksgiving in Naplate, Illinois

arrow

Personal

It’s the largest feast of the year…Tofurky Day. A time to drink wine while joking with your sister in laws around the oven. In addition to being a time to gather with family and friends. It is also a time to reflect on your year and focus new intentions.
