I’m just still swooning over our family photos, sorry!!! :) And Leo here, hahahahaha

Anyways, a lot going on this weekend! Tonight I want to head down to The Falls and check out the Christmas lights. I hear they’re extraordinary this year! Saturday we might go see Santa. He’s downtown Sioux Falls along with horse-drawn carriage rides. Might be kinda fun! We did that last year and Ivy FLIPPED. We also saw him last night and it was no different…. sooo might be a waste of our time. But I always love shopping downtown anyways, so at least there’s that! Then Saturday night we are having a holiday party with friends. We decided on a potluck and we chose the letter “C” for Christmas as the theme. Everyone has to bring a food item that starts with C, I don’t know what I’m bringing yet, but there are some good ideas out there! Triple points for chocolate chip cheesecake? ;) Haha! Hope you have a good weekend! 2 weeks till Christmas! Ho ho ho!

We are at our cabin this weekend enjoying some time by the fire and will hopefully get out to take the kids sledding. It’s so beautiful down here, I enjoy the snow so much more here than home! But if you’re around today, go to the Sioux Falls Made Market! It sounds awesome! There are more than 50 local vendors selling their homemade items. Pretty neat! Check it out for some great gifts. Otherwise, have a good weekend, Christmas is THREE weeks away! EEEEE!

Hello from the Black Hills! We have been enjoying the gorgeous scenery out here (our cabin rental) and the white fluffy snow is falling to make this a perfect log cabin retreat! Enjoying this vacation with the family and Ivy is loving seeing the “BIG mountains.” :) I can’t believe Thanksgiving is already next week! My tummy is growling for turkey and mashed potatoes and gravy already. But until then, I’m gonna cozy up by this wood fire and cuddle with the hubs and my wee ones! Hope you have a good weekend!

Hello! Happy Friday the 13th! EEEK! What are you doing this weekend? My weekend fun is starting today at lunch! I got invited by Sarah Jo from DakotaChic to a luncheon put on by Hungry for Truth, it’s a farm-to-table lunch featuring locally sourced cuisine created by Chef Mark Benedetto of Prairie Berry. During each course, we’ll hear from a local farmer who shares how that product was raised on the farm and how it made it to your tables. I’m excited to learn more and it sounds like it will be delicious food! Then, John’s cousin Tom, founder of Tommy John (the best men’s underwear and under shirts!!!! Shameless plug), is coming to town so that will be fun to see him. Busy weekend with friends and family! Sounds great to me :)

Hi hi hi! This was a week of recovery after the busy Halloween weekend, and I’m STILL tired! I’m the worst at staying up late these days. Anyways! Now it’s the weekend and we are headed to our cabin in Yankton, SD. So excited! We haven’t been there in over a month with our super busy fall. Anxious to cozy in by the wood-burning fireplace and take a stroll along the river. Relaxation ahead! Hope you all have a good weekend!
