Friday was our last full day in Rochester, and Lover and I visited with his parents and hung out at Anna’s in the morning. Then after my friend Colleen finished up her work day, I headed over to see her and we snuck in one last visit while she baked pies. She’s a phenomenal baker, […]

Thursday morning we met up with our longtime friends Len & Marianne Harris to spend the day with them. Len & Marianne were my second grade Sunday school teachers (I called them Mr and Mrs Harris back then!) and then Lover and I worked with them for about six years in New York before we

It’s hard to believe that fourteen years ago, we were getting married in a pretty little church in Brockport, New York! It’s been a wild, crazy, wonderful life together. We’ve moved five times, driven probably 100,000 miles together, taken countless trips, had four kids (and another on the way), tried out all kinds of business

Tuesday was a VERY full day! We started out with Keilana going with Auntie to pick up donuts for all the cousins before they headed out on their camping trip. Then the kids and I loaded up and drove out to East Rochester to visit my brother Jon and get the oil changed in the

Lover’s parents were up for the challenge of entertaining our kiddos for a few hours while Lover and I got some much needed time alone! We decided this would be our anniversary celebration and we decided to live it up! Well, at least as much as we could in these times. We dropped off the

Lover took Thursday and Friday off, and that was totally the right call! We were able to fit more in and enjoy a little bit of downtime while still getting things done and visiting with family and friends. We headed into Greece to visit my stylist, who I’ve missed terribly since moving to Colorado! We

The kids and I hung out during the day while Lover worked. They kept themselves busy on the trampoline and I visited with my cousin until they headed out to gymnastics class. In the afternoon, I went to go visit my friend Colleen, and we chatted for a couple of hours until I needed to
