Every year, since before I was born my parents have taken me to the tree farm. Since we have continued this tradition with our own little family we have fallen in love with the Wisconsin pine & fir trees.

We drive a lot on the weekends lately, this weekend we drove along Green Bay and stopped at a few parks along the way. We’ve been having cabin fever and one of our favorite parks, complete with a Pirate Ship playground fixed our Vitamin D and our restless legs. Plus I captured some funny photos of my little man and that always makes this Mama smile!
