A weekly list of things accomplished, enjoyed, learned, tried and remembered. 1. Drones. We were out doing one of our favorite summer activities–going to garage sales–a couple of weeks ago and my youngest spied a box that contained a really cool looking drone in it. The lady selling it noticed his interest and told him…
A weekly list of things accomplished, enjoyed, learned, tried and remembered. 1.Messenger Kids. So, our boys are both now officially middle schoolers (sob!). With them getting bigger, they are most definitely wanting bigger (and much more expensive) things, more responsibility, and….technology. We are holding off on getting them their own phones for several reasons, but…
A weekly list of things accomplished, enjoyed, learned, tried and remembered. 1. Our favorite parks. We’ve lived in our neighborhood almost 10 years and have several parks we frequent–especially in the summer. It’s so bizarre to see my now gigantic boys effortlessly scrambling up and around play structures that seemed like such death traps when…
A weekly list of things accomplished, enjoyed, learned, tried and remembered. 1. A real live gig–FINALLY! It’s been 111 days since SofaKillers played a live gig and it just so happened that they got to have their first gig back at the last place they played–Boot Barn Hall. What a fun time! With many restrictions…
A weekly list of things accomplished, enjoyed, learned, tried and remembered. 1. Camping! We FINALLY got to take our first camping trip of the season. We went to our favorite spot just outside of Lake City, CO. It’s quite a drive from Colorado Springs (about 4 1/2 hours), but it is SO worth it–some of…
A weekly list of things accomplished, enjoyed, learned, tried and remembered. 1. Puzzles. We decided to jump on the “let’s do a puzzle as a family” bandwagon. We chose one from The Mandalorain with baby Yoda (I thought Grayson was going to faint with excitement). It’s only 500 pieces, but it may just be the…
A weekly list of things accomplished, enjoyed, learned, tried and remembered. 1.Hard workin boys. Last year we took down the pirate ship Super Rockstar had built for our boys (you can read that here)–this left a nice space for something new. Super Rockstar has been wanting to put a shed back there for a long…
A weekly list of things accomplished, enjoyed, learned, tried and remembered. 1. Mother’s Day. I had the BEST Mother’s Day this year. We got to go do something I’ve been longing to ever since the temps started getting warmer–go FISHING!!! Super Rockstar and I have a favorite spot we’ve been going to since long before…
A weekly list of things accomplished, enjoyed, learned, tried and remembered. 1.A fun thing we did. I realized last week that even though we are all VERY much together every day–my boys and I aren’t connecting very much. When they aren’t doing school, they immerse themselves in playing, I get busy doing my stuff and…
A weekly list of things accomplished, enjoyed, learned, tried and remembered. 1.More trail exploring. The trails around our home town have gotten VERY full lately, but that doesn’t stop us from getting our weekly dose of some outdoor exploring. This week we went to one of my favorite’s in Black Forest (I think it’s just…
