Cairns Australia Vacation Part 2
(Read Part 1 Australia here) Unfortunately, after all the diving, I got a full blown sinus infection. I thought it was an ear infection as my ears felt completely clogged. We happened to be staying right across the street from an instant care so I went the morning after we got back on land and …
Cairns, Australia Family Vacation Part 1
We decided to use our flight miles to take our kids to Cairns, Australia for a family vacation! (Minus our oldest, Nate, who is still on his mission!). Of course, getting the flight for free, didn’t mean it wasn’t expensive, but it was totally worth it! It started the first Monday of Spring break. We …

Instead, with spotty cell service, I find myself refreshing web pages I …

Mesquite Soccer and Valley of Fire
We were able to spend the last few days in Mesquite Nevada to join TJ and his Arsenal soccer team in a tournament. I was SO GRATEFUL to be in nice weather. The first day we arrived, there was a game right away. Our team lost 1-0. The next day, the game wasn’t until 5pm, …
San Francisco Click Retreat
One of the best things about being a blogger is taking trips to meet and collaborate with other bloggers. I was so lucky to win a spot in the most recent Click Retreat, in San Francisco. It was beyond amazing!! Everyone I met, and everything I learned will be with me forever. The first cool thing, …
Dirty Dash 2014
Our second dirty dash! Probably would do more, if it weren’t so expensive. The kids had a blast. Nate did the full 10K. Me, Wade, Erica, and TJ did the 5K. I actually got sick, like I was going to throw up. The kids went ahead and finished before I did.
