Goodbye Summer, Hello Fall

September 22, 2015 By Katy

Goodbye Summer, Hello Fall!

It’s that time of year again, when summer turns to fall. As I look back with fondness on this past summer, I can say with confidence that I did it all. Camping? In a comfortable cabin of course.

Summer Days Drifting Away

August 27, 2015 By Katy

What I'll miss about summer as those summer days are drifting away.

The Funny Business of Back to School

August 12, 2015 By Katy

Is it just me or did Mom seem a little too happy about the first day of school?

As the cast of Grease 2 so eloquently sang once upon a time, we gotta go back to school. (Whoa, whoa, I gotta go… back to school again! ) Whether your kids return to school in July (seems early to me!) or after Labor Day (hello, Michigan!) or somewhere in between (probably most of you), [Read More]

Our Summer Adventures So Far

July 29, 2015 By Katy

Our Summer Adventures So Far included a weekend at a camper cabin. So luxurious compared to a tent!

It feels like only 10 minutes ago that we wrapped up another school year and switched gears for summer camp. Yet, here we are, officially knee deep in summer! As Ferris Beuller so eloquently puts it, “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around for a while, you could miss it.” So I’m stopping now [Read More]

Goodbye, Summer

September 2, 2013 By Katy

My kids go back to school on Tuesday. It seems like yesterday that they were so excited to be done with school. We enjoyed a great summer full of memories: going to the lake with friends, camping, baseball, swim lessons, golf lessons, and a cottage vacation at Lake Michigan.
