I have about 2 seconds right now; just got back from dropping Asher at summer school strength and conditioning class, and I have a ton of work to do. So, just a very quick check- in on a couple things! 1- Asher and Ivan are back from Iowa. They left and drove there Friday morning… Continue reading 2 second check in
Swim camp: On Thursday I dropped Asher and friend off at swim camp. The camp is being held at UW-Stevens Point, and the kids all stay in the college dorm rooms. Both boys were really excited about it all! They went to camp last year, but this is the first time they are staying in… Continue reading Asher to camp/ free weekend
Ha, please ignore my dramatic title. 😆 But seriously, it's that time of year....SUMMER PLANNING TIME. Wait, what? There's snow on the ground. It's January 28. My brain is so far from summer I might as well have left it in Mexico. Nevertheless, apparently in camp-world it is summertime. Registration opens for the traditional weeklong… Continue reading The summer planning blues

JULY RECAP First, it is somehow August. July felt like an absolute blur. When I look back at my planner, it's obvious why. We had family here for 4th of July weekend. Ethan's birthday and sleepover party with his friends. 2 weekends of swim meets, one including a 3 night stay at my parent's house… Continue reading July was packed & pre-vacation week
First, I did finally successfully complete my grocery trip yesterday morning. Store was EMPTY, which I am certain was probably not the case last night or will be anytime today with the holiday weekend upon us. So happy to have a stocked fridge again! It was Ethan's last day at camp and Asher had summer… Continue reading Camp pick-up/ New Month/Social Media
This is one of those times in life that feels like, what's the saying?? A beautiful mess? Everything has felt a bit chaotic and hectic over the last couple weeks (actually, couple months, really), but so much of it is so GOOD! So this isn't a complaint. 🙂 Let's see...so, I got home from swim… Continue reading Solo Ethan weekend & more camp
We made it home from swim camp last night, after a full 4 days away. The boys survived 8 1/2 hours of swimming per day, too. I'd say there were a few mixed emotions over the week, but mostly positive. The boys were no trouble at all, though I think his friend was not totally… Continue reading Everyone survived! Home from camp
Hello! Just jumping on quick during a little lunch break to update on our first couple days at swim camp! So far, so good! The drive up was early but uneventful, the boys got checked in (armed with their negative covid tests) and I was driving out of the parking lot by 8:30 a.m. yesterday.… Continue reading Hi from swim camp 🙂
WE MADE IT. It's the last day of school, and we have officially survived the most wacky school year ever. The boys aren't up yet and I don't have any "last day of school pics" yet, so here is a throwback to their 1st day: 1st day of 6th and 5th grade Talk about a… Continue reading Last day of school: covid year & summer plans
